Bitcoin Strives to Sustain Gains Above $50,000
Bitcoin is currently aiming to maintain its position above the $50,000 mark as it looks to reach a new all-time high. While some in the market believe that Bitcoin’s bullish momentum will continue, others anticipate a potential crash in the near future. Crypto analyst Alan Santana has suggested that Bitcoin could be on the brink of a significant decline after reaching $52,000, indicating a possible temporary peak. Santana’s analysis focuses on a bearish divergence with the daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) and predicts that Bitcoin could retest the $35,000 level.
Bitcoin Seeks to Hold the $50,000 Mark
The recent surge in Bitcoin’s value has led it to reclaim the $1 trillion market capitalization and successfully retest the $52,000 mark. This increase is attributed to an influx of investments into BTC spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs), with analysts expecting more flows throughout the year. Standard Chartered analysts project that spot ETFs could attract between $50 billion to $100 billion in investments in 2022 alone. The market is also closely watching for potential approval of spot Ethereum (ETH) ETFs by the U.S. SEC. Additionally, the upcoming Bitcoin halving in April is seen as a bullish catalyst for the cryptocurrency.
