Recall that BTC briefly exceeded that level at the start of September, but the bears stepped up and quickly <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/btc-stopped-at-82k-as-strong-us-jobs-report-shakes-markets-strategy-resumes-buying-weekly-recap\/\">rejected<\/a> the move.<\/p>\n<p>Historically, bull markets have &#8220;officially&#8221; begun once the cryptocurrency closes above this moving average. A successful close above $81,700 could confirm a new bullish phase and open the door for another major leg up. However, its continuous inability to break through could lead to a longer consolidation phase or even to a more profound decline.<\/p>\n<p>On the downside, bitcoin&#8217;s rally won&#8217;t be confirmed by simply moving past the $81,700 obstacle, as there are a few others on the way up. At first, CryptoQuant found the 3x Metcalfe valuation band, which sits at $83,600 and stands as the next big resistance. This level halted BTC in May and has previously coincided with important cycle turning points.<\/p>\n<p>If taken down, there&#8217;s one more at $88,700, which is the trader realized-price upper band. History shows that selling has intensified once the cryptocurrency approaches this line because active traders begin sitting on increasingly large unrealized profits.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"539k-btc\">539K BTC<\/h2>\n<p>CryptoQuant noted that the most immediate problem is considerably closer as long-term holders sold as much as 539,000 units between $77,100 and $80,200 throughout the year, creating what the analysts described as the heaviest nearby on-chain supply wall.<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin would need to absorb this supply before making another convincing attempt north, while the downside is better defined. The 200-day MA around $70,000 represents the first major technical support, followed by another substantial on-chain cluster between $62,000 and $65,000, where approximately 476,000 BTC were accumulated this year.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, CQ&#8217;s analysts are still bullish on BTC, but under one critical condition: the asset must clear $81,700 soon, then $83,600, and eventually $88,700 before the recovery can develop into a more profound rally.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoins-24-rally-hit-a-wall-cryptoquant-reveals-what-comes-next\/\">Bitcoin\u2019s 24% Rally Hit a Wall: CryptoQuant Reveals What Comes Next<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoins-24-rally-hit-a-wall-cryptoquant-reveals-what-comes-next\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The analyst at CryptoQuant weighed in on BTC&#8217;s notable price resurgence, which drove the asset from under $65,000&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11942,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-47069","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-crypto","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47069","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=47069"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47069\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/11942"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=47069"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=47069"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/financialrush.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=47069"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
