How low can the Bitcoin price go?

Cointime Official

From cointelegraph by Nancy Lubale

Bitcoin BTC$92,607 price has declined by more than 6.7% over the last four days after rallying to all-time highs above $99,800 on Nov. 22.

This drop has led to questions on whether this level is the local top for BTC price and, if so, how low can Bitcoin go over the next few days.

Bitcoin price analysts set sub-$90K targets

Bitcoin’s latest correction has led market analysts to believe that the price might retest areas below $90,000 before resuming the uptrend toward the “sweet” $100,000 level.

“Bitcoin just did a sneaky dip below the trendline, tickling the 93k support,” said Bitcoin analyst AlphaBTC in a Nov. 26 post on X.

Bitcoin price could retest the Nov. 12 low above $85,000 before resuming its quest for $100,000, the analyst said.

However, the chart below also shows a possibility of a deeper drop toward $80,000 if the support at $85,000 is broken.

Nevertheless, AlphaBTC is still optimistic about Bitcoin reaching $100,000 over the next few days.

“I’m betting we'll still hit that sweet, sweet 100K+ this week!”

Fellow analyst Crypto Rover shared similar sentiments, saying that Bitcoin traders would be in trouble if Bitcoin lost the support provided by the ascending trendline described by AlphaBTC.

“This is the most important support line for #Bitcoin right now,” the analyst added.

Founder of MN Capital Michael van de Poppe said that he still expects Bitcoin price to break $100,000 over the next two weeks.

The question remains, “How deep will the correction be?” van de Poppe questioned. Bitcoin could dip into the lower end of the $85,000 to $90,000 range, which would be a “sweet spot for entries,” he added.

“Probably, the sweet spot is at $85-90K.”

Meanwhile, popular Bitcoin analyst Rekt Capital said that it “wouldn’t be unreasonable for the price to drop into the ~$91,000 area.”

20-day EMA will be a test for Bitcoin

From a technical point of view, Bitcoin’s price currently trades above the support zone between $90,000 and $92,000.

Losing this support could cause the BTC price to collect demand-side liquidity down toward the 20-day exponential moving average, currently at $89,360.

The 20-day EMA sits close to Bitcoin’s key support zone between $89,626 and $92,383. More than 268,370 BTC were previously bought by 511,390 million addresses within this price range, according to IntoTheBlock.

In other words, this $89,000-level has a good chance of becoming the new local low before the next leg up.

  • Latest Progress on DeFi United Ecological Rescue Initiative: Over 100,000 ETH Raised at Designated Donation Address

    On April 26, the DeFi United ecological rescue initiative, led by Aave, continues to advance. The Arbitrum DAO has released 30,765 ETH that was frozen after the rsETH incident on April 18. Currently, the designated donation address has raised a total of 100,360 ETH to address the collateral asset gap caused by the rsETH incident. The plan aims to restore the backing assets of rsETH through multi-party collaboration, stabilize the market, and prevent the spread of bad debts across protocols. The funds will be used to support the restoration of collateral rates and to gradually normalize the market in conjunction with relevant protocols. Key contributors or participants currently include: Arbitrum DAO releasing 30,765 ETH frozen after the rsETH incident, Mantle proposing to contribute 30,000 ETH, Aave DAO proposing to contribute 25,000 ETH, Aave founder Stani Kulechov confirming a contribution of 5,000 ETH, EtherFi proposing to provide 5,000 ETH, Lido proposing to provide 2,500 stETH, and the Golem Foundation and related projects contributing a total of 1,000 ETH, among others. Additionally, LayerZero, Ethena, Frax Finance, and Ink Foundation have also confirmed their participation, although the specific amounts have not yet been disclosed. It is important to note that the progress of this rescue initiative still relies on several external key conditions, including KelpDAO's restoration of rsETH redemptions and the Arbitrum Security Council's release of frozen assets, resulting in uncertainty regarding the overall recovery time and effectiveness.
