Bitcoin Price Expected to Experience Increased Volatility in $70K–$80K Range

The price of bitcoin has dipped below $75,000 twice in the past week, extending its decline from the all-time high of $109,000 reached on January 20. Key points include:

  • Bitcoin is currently in an “air pocket” between $70,000 and $80,000.
  • This range was created after a surge following Donald Trump's election victory.
  • Historically, bitcoin often returns to key levels after significant rallies without consolidation.
  • Low supply in this range suggests increased likelihood of rapid price movements.
  • Bitcoin's unspent transaction output (UTXO) indicates low supply at current price levels.
  • Less than 2% of total bitcoin supply resides within the air pocket range.
  • Approximately 25% of bitcoin's supply is held at a loss by short-term holders who bought within the last 155 days.
