Despite ongoing crypto market jitters, the bull market for Bitcoin (BTC) remains robust, according to the founders of crypto analytics firm Glassnode.
In a tweet on Friday, the duo known by the pseudonym âNegentropicâ on X (formerly Twitter) shared their insights on Bitcoinâs ongoing consolidation phase and the broader cryptocurrency market.
The pundits emphasized that Bitcoinâs current consolidation does not signal the end of the bull market. They highlighted a âCup & Handleâ pattern observed in the Nasdaq, whose movements have increasingly correlated with Bitcoinâs. This pattern, often viewed as a bullish indicator, suggests a significant target level yet to be reached. This indicates that the bull market is still intact and that future prices will likely increase once the consolidation phase concludes.
âWe have posted this clear âCup&Handleâ structure in Nasdaq before. And it is still in play. It suggests a MINIMUM target of 21,700-ish. We are not there yet! So â Bull Market seems to be intact â and we also think that the minimum target will be surpassed.â They wrote.
The duoâs analysis follows their remarks on Thursday regarding the marketâs current sentiment, which they noted seems to be influenced by âhalf-way jitters.â They further reassured their followers that their long-term target for Bitcoin remains unchanged, predicting a rise to around $110,000 before the bull market peaks, noting that the âconsolidation [they] see now is merely a retest of the former ATH-area [2021].â
They view the current consolidation as a necessary retest of previous all-time high levels and anticipate that Bitcoin needs to surpass key price points at $64,000 and $70,000 to confirm the continuation of the bull trend.
Negentropicâs analysis comes amid sustained bearish pressure on Bitcoin. On June 5, Bitcoinâs price dipped below $54,000, driven by significant coin movements from the Mt. Gox exchange and the German governmentâs sale of a substantial BTC stash. These events triggered panic selling, with nearly 30,000 BTC, worth $1.73 billion, entering exchanges this week.
CryptoQuant analysts also highlighted this development, noting that long-term Bitcoin holders have realized significant profits, contributing to the recent price drop.
âThe highest activity was observed among holders who had kept their Bitcoin for 5-7 years,â analysts IT-Tech from the firm noted on July 4.
That said, following this weekâs events and the break below the $60,000- $61,000 support range, some analysts caution that Bitcoinâs price may experience further declines before stabilizing. Ali Martinez, a prominent analyst, noted the lack of significant support for Bitcoin, with a key demand level of around $47,000. Martinez believes Bitcoin must close and hold above $61,000 for the bull run to resume.
Experts from 10x Research also warned that Bitcoinâs sharp decline might not stop at $57,000, potentially pushing the price to $50,000 due to weakened buying pressure and increased selling orders.
At press time, BTC was trading at $55,335, slightly recovering from the morningâs 6.7% flash drop.
