Bitcoin Future: Defense of ‘Critical’ Support Level ‘Very Important,’ Says Matrixport Analysis

The world’s leading cryptocurrency, Bitcoin (BTC), is at a crossroads with the defense of a critical support level. According to Singapore-based blockchain firm Matrixport, the course for Bitcoin will depend on whether it stays above a critical support of $89,260.

Bitcoin recently broke out of a tight wedge pattern and is testing the breakout level at $98,042. That price zone will most likely determine where Bitcoin goes from here in the coming weeks.

If it holds at or above the key support level, that would be opening up an “extremely bullish” short-term trend for the price of Bitcoin, said Matrixport’s research team and independent crypto expert Marcus Thielen. The BTC market has been moving within a wedge pattern since mid-November under the driving forces of inflationary concerns and optimism over strategic moves in the broader financial markets.

Why the $89,260 Level is Key

According to the analysis by Matrixport, the critical level from which Bitcoin could continue its way towards the bullish side is at its support. As long as it cannot stay above $89,260, the market sentiments are capable of further hampering it.

As of today, the market price of Bitcoin is $103,497 and the overall crypto market cap at $3.56 trillion, and that indicates relatively stable market environment, though experts are very alert to watch the Bitcoin defending levels critically.

What’s Driving the Market?

Macro Trends: Markets are upbeat over easing inflation, and possibly rethinking the direction on interest rates.
Institutional Interest: Still an investment for the long run with increased institutional interest.
Technical Indicators: There is still good optimism from the breakout from the wedge pattern, as long as support levels are not breached.

These two coming weeks are of the utmost importance for any Bitcoin aficionado or investor. If it can stick to its support levels, waves of buying will come along and push it up even further to new highs. A fall below $89,260 can see a tumble and, quite possibly, the coin might experience corrections for some time.
