Bitcoin rise above US$67,500 could trigger new records, says 10x Research

Bitcoin may be on the verge of a rally to new records, but it still has significant resistance to overcome.

Bitcoin price could start climbing to new all-time highs if it manages to rise decisively above the crucial $67,500 mark.

The $67,500 mark is acting as a significant resistance line for Bitcoin, which could determine its price action in the coming weeks.

The predictions come after Bitcoin made a significant recovery above the psychological $66,000 mark. The world's first cryptocurrency is up more than 7.3% during the past week.

Last week's price recovery is a promising sign for Bitcoin price action.

Inflows into US Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) remained positive for the second week in a row as ETFs accumulated over $200 million in cumulative net flows, which is only half compared to the previous week's US$413 million.

Prior to the week beginning May 6, Bitcoin ETF net flows had been negative for three consecutive weeks.

Institutional ETF inflows have been a significant part of Bitcoin's current rally to new all-time highs. As of February 15, Bitcoin ETFs accounted for about 75% of new investments in the world's largest cryptocurrency as it surpassed the $50,000 mark.

However, Bitcoin faces significant resistance at the $67,500 mark. A potential move above would liquidate nearly $300 million in leveraged short positions across all cryptocurrency exchanges.

On the monthly chart, Bitcoin turned key resistance into support, which could signal more bullish momentum, according to a May 16 X post from popular cryptocurrency analyst Rekt Capital.
