Bitcoin has started to recover gradually after experiencing a notable drop in recent weeks. So far, BTC has reclaimed the $90,000 level amid renewed market activity.
The cryptocurrency surged nearly 10% yesterday, briefly reaching a high of $92,756 in the early hours of today before experiencing a minor pullback. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $90,156, marking a 0.6% decrease over the past 24 hours.
Short-Term Holder Trends and Potential Market Consolidation
Yonsei Dent, a contributor to CryptoQuant’s QuickTake platform, pointed out earlier today a tightening trend in short-term holder (STH) realized price levels, suggesting a potential shift in market conditions.
The analyst noted that this development, alongside key moving averages, could indicate a period of market consolidation unless a strong demand catalyst emerges.
According to Yonsei Dent, the convergence of Short-Term Holder Realized Price levels suggests that the average entry price of recent Bitcoin buyers is becoming more uniform. Historically, such conditions have signaled either reduced volatility or a lack of clear price direction, leading to a phase of consolidation.
Additionally, Dent noted that the 60-day and 200-day moving averages are also tightening, mirroring a similar trend observed in May 2024, which resulted in a period of low volatility and minimal price movement.
A major factor influencing Bitcoin’s market outlook is regulatory developments, particularly the Trump administration’s stance on cryptocurrency policies.
Dent highlighted that the upcoming cryptocurrency summit, scheduled for tomorrow, could introduce key regulatory discussions that may influence Bitcoin’s price action. The CryptoQuant analyst wrote:
All eyes are on tomorrow’s cryptocurrency summit, where key regulatory discussions are expected. Should a bullish policy outlook emerge, it could inject fresh momentum into the market and break this tightening price structure.
Technical Indicators And Future Outlook On Bitcoin
From a technical perspective, some analysts remain optimistic about Bitcoin’s long-term trajectory. Crypto analyst Ali has pointed out that candlestick wicks on the Bitcoin weekly chart indicate strong buying pressure, suggesting that buyers are actively defending key support levels.
This observation aligns with previous market trends where similar patterns led to subsequent upward movements. Ali also referenced the Pi Cycle Top indicator, which suggests that if Bitcoin reclaims the $97,000 level, it could gain momentum for a potential move toward $150,000.
