Key Points
- An anonymous wallet transferred over 8000 BTC, worth more than $567 million, to Coinbase.
- Despite a recent drop in Bitcoin’s price, data suggests high buying pressure and potential undervaluation.
Bitcoin [BTC] has recently experienced significant fluctuations, peaking over $72,000 before dropping again.
After a successful market takeover by Bitcoin bulls on October 27, the cryptocurrency’s value climbed to $73.4k on October 30, then began to consolidate around $72k.
Reasons for Bitcoin’s Price Drop
In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin’s market bears have returned, causing a price drop of more than 4%. At the time of writing, it was trading at $69,063.85.
The recent price correction may be due to a major transfer. Whale Alerts, a handle that shares updates on significant cryptocurrency transactions, reported a transfer of over 8000 BTC (worth over $567 million) from an unknown wallet to Coinbase.
Future Outlook for Bitcoin
Despite the drop, some indicators suggest potential for recovery. According to Glassnode’s data, Bitcoin’s accumulation trend score was 0.88, indicating high buying pressure. The NVT ratio also declined sharply, suggesting the asset may be undervalued.
BTC’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has also declined sharply, but the MA cross indicator revealed that the 9-day MA was well above the 21-day MA, indicating a bullish trend. If BTC successfully tests its support at $68.59k, it could potentially rise towards $73k again.
