The leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin (BTC), which has been consolidating between $25,800 and $26,200 over the past week, experienced a rapid surge after the announcement of Grayscale’s victory in the SEC case, briefly surpassing the $28,000 level. Analysts evaluating the recent situation in Bitcoin highlighted price levels that could play a critical role in the near future.
Bitcoin’s (BTC) Current Situation
Bitcoin (BTC), the leading cryptocurrency, had started to consolidate between $25,800 and $26,200 levels over the past week due to low volatility in the cryptocurrency market. However, Grayscale’s victory in the SEC case had a strong impact on the markets. Bitcoin (BTC) quickly surged after the announcement of the Grayscale news and briefly surpassed the $28,000 price level.
BTC gained more than 5% in the last 24 hours, and at the time of writing, it started trading at $27,400. In addition to the rise in the cryptocurrency market, there was also a significant increase in Coinbase shares. Coinbase Global Inc (COIN) shares, the largest US-based cryptocurrency exchange in terms of trading volume, recorded an average value increase of about 15%, reaching $85.
Analyst Points to Critical Price Levels
Crypto analyst Michael Van de Poppe, who evaluated the current situation in Bitcoin through a lengthy post on Twitter, pointed out price levels that could play a critical role in the near future and discussed possible scenarios. The analyst emphasized the importance of the $26,800 levels in the short term, stating that if the market continues to decline and BTC falls below these levels, the losses could extend to $24,800 and $25,200.
Furthermore, the analyst also mentioned a possible bullish scenario. Crypto analyst Michael Van de Poppe stated that if the bullish trend in the cryptocurrency market continues and the value of BTC increases rapidly, the leading cryptocurrency could face significant resistance around the $30,000 level.
