Van de Poppe highlights that for Bitcoin to regain upward momentum, it needs to break through the $61,000 resistance level. A successful breakout above this zone could trigger a surge, potentially pushing Bitcoin’s price toward the $71,679 mark soon.
Potential for a New All-Time High
If Bitcoin manages to breach the $61,000 level, it could pave the way for a substantial rally. Analysts believe that such a breakout might set the stage for a new all-time high (ATH).
On the flip side, if Bitcoin fails to break this level, it may remain within its current range, or see a price fall to the next support area of $56,002.
