We are once again witnessing a surprising week in the cryptocurrency market. After several days of decline, Bitcoin seemed to lose the important support of €25,000 ($30,000) on the afternoon of June 22. But that was without counting on the reaction of buyers who quickly pushed the price back above $30,000. After this price action, which was rather positive for the long-term uptrend, Bitcoin is still down nearly 15% on the week and is trading around €28,500 ($34,000) on June 23.
The news and market sentiment was particularly negative in recent days, especially with China’s crackdown on cryptocurrencies. As is often the case, the market took advantage of this environment to find a potential low point and thwart majority sentiment. We’ll see in our detailed analysis below that while $30,000 is important, there is still a long-term buying zone located between €22,600 and €23,500 ($27,000 and $28,000). On the other hand, a sustained drop below this level would seriously jeopardize the long-term bull market.
Since June 22 at 5pm, the price has shown a nice bullish reaction. However, this is not the time to rush: this week is full of events, with important expiries of options and futures contracts by Friday. These expiries do not seem to worry the biggest bitcoin portfolios, which have not sold since mid-May. Instead, these large portfolios lightened their positions between February and April, when the price was on highs.
On the altcoins side, the declines have been more significant, sometimes going beyond -50%. In two months, some assets have lost around 80%, a real purge following the euphoria of the last few months, especially around DeFi and NFTs.Bitcoin’s capitalization relative to the overall market continues to rise. We continue to believe that Bitcoin has a good chance of leading the market in terms of performance if we are on the cusp of a new bull market.
Finally, on the macroeconomic front, the fear that gripped the stock markets following last week’s U.S. central bank meeting quickly dissipated. US indices are already back to their highs and a recent speech by Governor Jerome Powell seems to have reassured investors about the ability to control the ongoing inflation wave. The decorrelation between the traditional markets and the cryptoasset market is still relevant.
