#BtcNewHolder Bitcoin Price Forecast: Will BTC Fall to $60K Before Trump’s Inauguration?
Multiple analysts have predicted that Bitcoin could decline to $60k if it plunges below a crucial support level.
Meanwhile, Santiment data suggests that whales are increasingly moving stablecoins to centralized exchanges.
Bitcoin (BTC) has struggled to return to $100k after a massive level of liquidation forced a nosedive from an all-time-high price level of $108k to $91.9k. According to analyst Ali Martinez, the asset currently relies on a crucial support range of $97,041 and $93,806. A fall below this level could send Bitcoin to $70k before the inauguration of Donald Trump.
Supporting this bearish thesis, Martinez highlighted the unexpected surge of Bitcoin exchange reserves. According to him, more than 33k Bitcoin ($3.23 billion) has been transferred to various centralized exchanges, hinting at a possible selling pressure. Meanwhile, profit booking is reported to have contributed to the current position of $95k.
Based on data, investors collectively realized more than $7.17 billion in profits on December 23. Fascinatingly, traders have also reduced their expectation of a near-term rally as the percentage of those holding long positions of the asset on Binance has declined from 66.73% to 53.60%.
Currently, Bitcoin has lost 0.17% of its value on the 24-hour price chart, falling below a crucial support level of $97k, where 1.51 million wallets made a collective purchase of around 1.49 million BTC.
