According to crypto analyst Charting Guy, Bitcoin is currently consolidating in what is termed the “golden pocket,” a key area in Fibonacci retracement that often indicates significant future price movement.
Despite the ongoing consolidation, Charting Guy anticipates a decisive breakout. Bitcoin’s next major challenge is to overcome the resistance at $71,591. Successfully breaking through this barrier could set the stage for a rapid ascent toward the $87,000 mark, aligning with the 1.618 Fibonacci extension level.
Crypto Analysts Eye $67K Support: Is Bitcoin Set to Surge?According to data from Santiment, a market intelligence platform, Mt. Gox trustee’s recent actions have markedly influenced Bitcoin’s wallet distribution landscape. In a strategic consolidation effort, billions of dollars in Bitcoin were transferred, reshaping the balance between medium and large-scale holders.
This significant financial maneuver resulted in a net decrease of 65 wallets ranging from 1K to 10K BTC and a net increase in three wallets holding between 10K and 100K BTC. The wallets holding between 10K and 100K BTC now possess an additional 140.93K BTC, marking a 5.8% increase from the previous day. Conversely, wallets in the 1K to 10K BTC range show a decline, holding 134.76K BTC less than a day ago, which translates to a 2.7% drop.
These shifts, while substantial, are unlikely to cause major price movements in the immediate market. The consolidation appears to be a strategic realignment rather than a signal of impending market volatility. Such strategic wallet consolidations are essential to understand as they reflect underlying trends and decision-making processes among significant Bitcoin stakeholders.
As of press time, Bitcoin is trading at $68,465, up by 0.70% in the past 24 hours. Despite the recent market fluctuations regarding the Mt. Gox transfers, Bitcoin remains bullish on the monthly chart, surging by more than 10%. The market cap and trading volume are at $1.35 trillion and $28 billion, respectively.
