Bitcoin, the world’s oldest and most valuable cryptocurrency, initially surged to $59,800 but struggled to maintain that level, eventually falling below $56,630. The global cryptocurrency market cap is $2.06 trillion, reflecting a 24-hour decline of 0.93 percent. Bitcoin’s recent pullback followed the release of US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data, revealing a price rebound in July. Ongoing geopolitical tensions between Iran and Israel have added further pressure, with substantial liquidations in the crypto derivatives sector contributing to market volatility.
Institutional interest in Bitcoin may be waning at its current price, with the 7-day minting ratio dropping significantly from $2.7 billion to $1.4 billion, suggesting a decline in interest from institutions. Despite this, some forecasts suggest Bitcoin’s bull run could continue into 2025 based on past cycles. The US dollar has struggled due to expectations of a rate cut at the Federal Reserve’s upcoming meeting, despite strong economic data such as retail sales and labor market resilience.
US economic data, including a 1% increase in retail sales for July and better-than-expected jobless claims, highlight the resilience of the economy. The anticipated Fed rate cut and weaker dollar could boost Bitcoin’s appeal as an alternative investment. Technical analysis shows Bitcoin trading at $58,770, with immediate resistance at $59,810 and support at $55,200. The outlook remains bearish below $57,750, with potential for a shift towards a more bullish trend if that level is breached.
