Bitcoin Price Consolidates as Hash Rate Hits ATH
#crypto #bitcoin
Bitcoin price spent the weekend consolidating as the action has all gone sideways for the time being. There was another dip down below $11,000 yesterday but BTC recovered back as it heads towards resistance once again.
Daily volume has dipped below $20 billion, half of what it was late last month, and market cap is still at $200 billion. The correction has all the signs of continuation and a clear level of resistance has formed at around $11,700 where the 0.768 Fib level is.
Trader ‘CryptoFibonacci’ has noted this on the four-hour chart.

“$BTC 4 hour Chart. Downtrend line and the 78.6 Fib retrace are both a brick wall for the moment.”
On the same chart, BTC is currently sitting right on the 50 moving average. Support at the 200 MA is at around $9,800 so this could be another target. Josh Rager has looked at longer time frames which are still bullish despite the current bearish mood.$BTC 4 hour Chart.Downtrend line and the 78.6 Fib retrace are both a brick wall for the moment.#BTC pic.twitter.com/d9ccsdNCYZ

“Not for sure why there is some overly bearish sentiment with Bitcoin right now just b/c price has failed to move up to retest local highs. The daily and weekly charts look fine. Nice green candles on both, doesn’t look bearish to me. Still neutral leaning bullish atm,”
He added that Bitcoin price usually ranges for a couple of weeks after such a pullback.Not for sure why there is some overly bearish sentiment with Bitcoin right now just b/c price has failed to move up to retest local highsThe daily and weekly charts look fine

“$BTC pattern has been a strong uptrend followed back a sharp pullback & then range 2 to 3 weeks before continuation. Don’t take this chart too seriously, as no one can predict price action, but Bitcoin likely ranges here. Total guess if BTC continues uptrend to new ATH afterward,”

Hash Rate At All-Time High
Fundamentally things are looking good for the Bitcoin network. A new hash rate high was hit recently of over 74.5 million tera hashes per second. According to blockchain.com BTC hash rate is up over 100% year on year. Hash rate is a good sign of network health and for BTC it keeps improving as does difficulty which is also at ATH right now. Network transactions have also been steadily increasing for the past year so overall things are looking good for Bitcoin fundamentally.Is Bitcoin price about to correct lower?
