Bitcoin Eyes $90,000, Analyst Forecasts $130K Within 90 Days Amid Bullish Technical Signals
Bitcoin (BTC) is showing strong bullish momentum, currently trading just under $87,000, up by over 1.10% in the last 24 hours. The cryptocurrency has delivered its best weekly performance in over two months, climbing 4.24% and reaching an intraday high of $88,804.
This positive price action has seen Bitcoin BTC/USD[ reclaim a bullish stance on the charts, notably closing above the crucial 200-day exponential moving average (EMA) on the daily chart.
Factors Fueling Bitcoin’s Upside: Macroeconomic Signals and Institutional Interest
There seem to be a number of elements driving Bitcoin’s recent price swing. Positive changes in macroeconomic conditions—including lowering of inflation forecasts and a possibly softer attitude on US President Donald Trump’s tariffs—have raised investor mood throughout risk assets. Further support comes from the institutional players like Strategy, which lately raised its holdings to over 500,000 BTC, accumulating Bitcoin constantly. Additionally pointing to fresh institutional interest is the comeback of net inflows into US Spot Bitcoin ETFs.
Mt. Gox Transfers $1 Billion in Bitcoin, Stirring Speculation About Creditor Payouts
Notably, bankrupt crypto firm Mt. Gox conducted its third significant Bitcoin move this month, moving 11,500 BTC valued roughly $1 billion. This relates to earlier March payments of 12,000 BTC and 11,833 BTC. These major changes have sparked rumors among the crypto community about possible imminent creditor settlements from the long-standing bankruptcy processes.
BTC Open Interest Jumps Significantly, Raising Caution of Potential Liquidation Cascades
Data from Velo shows a significant rise in the open interest (OI) of Bitcoin, which stands for the whole value of existing futures contracts that surged by over $1.5 billion in the past 24 hours. Although the funding rate is still almost neutral, some analysts have been cautious about this notable increase in OI especially following Bitcoin’s valuation beyond $87,500. Suggesting that leveraged positions could increase price volatility, anonymous crypto analyst IT Tech PL noted that “High OI + Rapid Price Increase = Risk of Liquidation Cascades!”
BTC/USD Technical Analysis: Possibility for $90,000 Test Against Falling Resistance
The weekly close recently over $84,600 has greatly raised the probability of Bitcoin testing the $90,000 psychological threshold. But Bitcoin has to first pass a declining resistance level if it is to progress sustainably toward the range highs. From a short-term standpoint, Bitcoin tested the upper Bollinger Band alongside this declining barrier and peaked at $88,750.
On the 4-hour chart, the price is also now swinging inside an ascending channel. This convergence of technical elements points to a possibility of a temporary correction to test the demand zone between $86,000 and $87,000 before maybe crossing the $90,000 mark.
Resistance at $92,000 Remains a Key Hurdle for Sustained Bullish Momentum
Although Bitcoin is showing resilience, the $92,000 mark still poses a major barrier. Some analysts think that confirming a continuous optimistic momentum depends on surpassing this level. Investor confidence may be influenced in part by positive macroeconomic data including the forthcoming “core” Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index. A less inflationary trend could help the Federal Reserve’s dovish posture and raise the possibility of interest rate reductions, usually favorable for risk assets like Bitcoin.
Key Support Levels to Watch as Analyst Warns of Potential Retest of Lows
For a continuous Bitcoin price increase, material indicators co-founder Keith Alan emphasizes the need of recovering important support levels. He emphasizes as vital levels that need to be recaptured as support the 21-day simple moving average (SMA), currently around $84,674, and the 2025 annual open at about $93,300. Alan says there is more chance of a price retest of the recent lows until these levels are locked.
Bitcoin Price Prediction: $130,000 Target Within 90 Days Amid Healthy Market Consolidation
Predicting a possible spike to $130,000 during the next 90 days, Bitcoin analyst Axel Adler Jr. has offered a quite positive view of the currency. Adler contends that rather than indicating a harbinger of its conclusion, the present period of trading below $90,000 is really a “healthy pause” and a moment of consolidation within an always bull market.
Based on on-chain data, including Bitcoin’s Investor Price Model, which at present does not show “overheated” conditions, unlike the signals observed at the 2021 peaks, his study is based. Adler also notes that the market stays in a “growth stage,” with long-term holders’ selling activity being somewhat low, using the Cumulative Value Days Destroyed (CVDD) measure. Once Bitcoin passes important high levels around $123,000, he expects seasoned investors to start pulling profits, therefore exerting some downward pressure.
