Whale Panda believes that Saylor was possibly responsible for the significant price jump by buying $2 billion worth of Bitcoin in one go. However, Blockstream CEO Adam Back, one of the most prominent Bitcoin evangelists, believes that this is not…

Bitcoin (BTC) broke $62,000 on Aug. 8 and now needs to hold the $60,600 level as support on the daily chart to try a revisit to $65,000, according to the trader identified as Rekt Capital on X (formerly Twitter). The upward movement was likely triggered by BTC chasing a CME gap between $59,400 and $62,550. A CME gap is the difference between the closing and opening prices of futures contracts traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. “Bitcoin has successfully broken above $60600. Dips into $60600, if any at all, would constitute a retest attempt of that level. Generally, continued stability…

Crypto analyst Plan B dissected the BTC price charts and market cycles along with technical indicators to predict Bitcoin will surpass $100,000 in 2024 itself. Plan B also leveraged technical analysis tools like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and moving averages to support his prediction. The Stock-to-Flow chart, with its color gradient indicating pre-halving months, reveals a consistent pattern of price increases before each halving event. Plan B argues this supports the step function in the S2F model, where Bitcoin’s price jumps sharply after each halving. Plan B’s Bitcoin Market Cycles chart, created in 2019, complements the S2F model by…
