The King of cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin, has found a strong support zone amid the current crypto market blood bath. BTC has faced significant price correction despite hitting $ 100k earlier this year. Per CoinMarketCap data, BTC was trading at $78.321k at press time.
With the global economy facing uncertainty and trade wars, traders wonder what’s next for Bitcoin as its price plunges.
The $ 74k-$70k zone is a strong support cluster
According to Glassnode data, traders hold over 175,000 BTC in the $74k-$70k zone, with the strongest pocket (50,000 BTC) sitting at $ 74.2k. Holders have been inactive since March 10, suggesting a “wait-and-see” sentiment. The $69.9k is another lower support band of Bitcoin’s cost basis, holding 68,000 BTC.
Is it a Cooling-off period?
The King of crypto is trading below the Short-term holder (STH) cost basis of $89k. On-chain metrics suggest a historical cooling-off zone in bull markets. Market activity has decreased, with few new buyers. Traders seem to be waiting for a shift towards bullish market sentiment.
