Bitcoin (BTC) has surged past the critical $64,000 mark, overcoming a major resistance level, and now investors are turning their attention to the $68,000 threshold. Whether Bitcoin can maintain its position above this level is seen as a crucial factor in determining the future direction of its price.
Sustaining the $64,000 Level is Crucial for Further Gains
After hovering below the $64,000 mark for 20 days, Bitcoin finally broke through on August 23, climbing to $64,245. This upward movement came on the heels of positive comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell regarding potential interest rate cuts. However, it’s important to note that Powell did not specify a timeline for these cuts.
The $64,000 level was previously established as a significant support zone for Bitcoin following the approval of spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in January. However, the events of “Black Monday” on August 5 caused this level to flip into a resistance point for BTC.
Eyes on $68,000 as Speculation Grows
An anonymous crypto analyst known as Mister Crypto has suggested that if Bitcoin can hold above the $64,000 mark, a rally toward $68,000 is highly likely. This scenario has fueled speculation among investors about when Bitcoin might surpass its previous all-time high of $68,991, recorded in 2021. The analyst also mentioned that a significant price movement over the weekend is unlikely, with Bitcoin expected to consolidate around its current levels.
Elja: RSI Indicator Suggests Further Upside Potential
Meanwhile, crypto analyst Elja took to X to inform followers that Bitcoin could soon push towards the $68,000 to $70,000 range. Elja’s prediction is based on Bitcoin’s Relative Strength Index (RSI), noting that the indicator has not yet entered the overbought territory. Currently, Bitcoin’s RSI stands at 66.11. For context, when Bitcoin hit its all-time high of $73,679 in March, its RSI peaked at 79.79.
Investors are now closely watching to see if Bitcoin can maintain its position above the $64,000 mark. If this level holds, it could pave the way for a move towards $68,000 and beyond.
