At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $38,238, up 4.37% in the last 24 hours.
If the price manages to clearly break above $38,320 level, then it will likely test $40,600.
Despite recouping a significant portion of the losses sustained during the catastrophic market collapse of 2022, Bitcoin’s price has seen significant volatility this year.
Compared to its value on January 1, 2023, the current price of Bitcoin is over $38,200, a rise of 130%. Some market watchers think BTC’s rise is still in its infancy and that it will soon reach new heights. The impending halving and the probable approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF in the U.S are expected to drive the next prospective bull run.
Analysts have reported that the velocity indicator, which shows the trading volume of Bitcoin, has hit new lows. The present Bitcoin velocity differs from the average observed during the previous bear market in 2018-2019, according to Bitfinex researchers.
The low Bitcoin velocity, according to Bitfinex’s analysts, shows that crypto investors are hesitant to sell and that purchasers are looking for fresh supplies. Due to the several higher lows recorded by the Bitcoin, the price seems to be about to test for a breakout.
Bulls in Total Control
