The crypto market holds its breath as Bitcoin consolidates within a critical technical pattern that could determine its next major trend.
The Current Setup
Bitcoin (BTC) has been trading between 60,000and60,000and70,000 for weeks, forming a textbook symmetrical triangle on the daily chart. This tightening price range signals:
- Declining volatility (BTC’s 30-day volatility at 6-month lows)
- Mounting pressure for a decisive breakout
- Historically significant pattern (preceded 2020’s bull run)
Two Possible Scenarios
1. Bullish Breakout ($75K+) Trigger If:
- Spot BTC ETF inflows resume strongly
- Fed signals rate cuts in September
- Triangle resistance at $68,500 breaks with volume
2. Bearish Breakdown ($52K Risk) If:
- US regulatory crackdown intensifies
- ETF demand stagnates further
- Support at $60,000 fails to hold
