Bitcoin (BTC) experienced a notable rally last week, surging over 8 percent to close above $63k. This upward movement follows the ongoing economic shift influenced by the U.S. Federal Reserve’s rate cut. Successfully rebounding from the 50-week Moving Average (MA), Bitcoin now faces a critical resistance level above $64k.
The significant rebound in Bitcoin’s price over the past two weeks has considerably alleviated fears of further crypto market capitulation. On Monday, during the early Asian session, Bitcoin’s fear and greed index hovered above 50 percent, bolstering positive sentiment for a bullish price outlook.
Bitcoin Whales Increases Appetite
Despite global geopolitical uncertainties, particularly between NATO and the BRICS movement, the demand for Bitcoin has risen alongside Gold. Gold prices recently entered a price discovery phase, opening this week at an all-time high (ATH) of around $2,630.
With Bitcoin expected to follow Gold’s bullish trajectory, on-chain data analysis indicates that whale investors have significantly increased their holdings. The Bitcoin supply on centralized exchanges (CEXs) has dropped to multi-year lows of approximately 2.3 million, down from 2.7 million units in March. This trend supports optimistic Bitcoin price predictions for the coming months.
