Bitcoin Approaches $100,000 Resistance With Risks of Decline Below $84,000

Bitcoin is trading at a critical level, with market participants observing closely for its next move. Crypto analyst CyrilXBT suggests that BTC is approaching a make-or-break zone as it hovers around key support levels.

Key Insights

  • Bitcoin is in a broader downtrend but may be forming a base instead of continuing lower.
  • The $84,000 to $88,000 zone is crucial, with buyers actively defending it, preventing a decisive breakdown.
  • CyrilXBT expects a gradual upward movement if Bitcoin maintains this support, targeting the $92,000 to $95,000 range.
  • $100,000 is identified as a critical resistance level, previously strong support, and now determining bullish momentum.

Potential Risks

  • If Bitcoin fails to hold $100,000, a bearish outlook could emerge quickly.
  • A drop below $84,000 might trigger a decline towards support zones between $76,000 and $72,000.
  • Currently trading above $87,000, Bitcoin has declined over 8.5% this year; a fall below $84,000 could lead to a further loss of 12.6% to 17.2% in market value.
