Bitcoin, TradFi market starts a new week struggling as it returns to the $67,000 level. The largest cryptocurrency is approaching a rematch with past and present all-time highs around $69,000 and $73,800. Whether it will reach this point in the coming days is the main concern of market participants, and various factors could contribute to the continuation of the bullish trend.
What’s Happening on the Bitcoin Front?
Among these factors are hints of US economic policy as the Federal Reserve releases the minutes of its May meeting, while US unemployment data is also on hold. When it comes to Bitcoin price action, investors are increasingly confident that a local bottom has been reached and that a rise will occur after two months of consolidation. Data obtained by TradingView shows that Bitcoin has returned to an upward trend this week, reaching close to $67,000 in the Asian session after briefly dipping before the weekly close.
This short-term weakness accompanied geopolitical uncertainty in Iran, but the BTC/USD pair quickly shrugged it off as it maintained its 10% gains in May. The latest data from data analysis platform CoinGlass now shows that most of the immediate general resistance is just below $68,000.
Notable Statements About Bitcoin
Additional data shared by IT Tech, a contributor to the blockchain data analysis platform CryptoQuant, on X shows the liquidation levels surrounding the spot price. Market participants commenting on the latest Bitcoin price action were in a positive mood. Popular investor Crypto Damus noted that the first weekly rise since October 2023 had occurred. Crypto Damus stated that last week’s candle erased previous losses and closed at $66,210.
Michael van de Poppe, founder and CEO of MNTrading trade firm, reiterated his thoughts on a steady march towards new highs for Bitcoin and shared the following statements:
“Bitcoin will likely continue to move in this range. I don’t expect significant volatility. I prefer to expect consolidation and slow down upward movements towards all-time highs.”
Van de Poppe also added that he expects altcoins to perform better during this period, noting that they have suffered more severe losses during Bitcoin’s consolidation phase, and stated:
“Slow upward progress, slow but steady steps towards a vertical move in Q3/Q4.”
