Bitcoin (BTC) Trend Direction Summary
The general trend in Bitcoin is bullish, but fluctuations are normal in the short term.
Long-Term Expectations: Bull Market Continues
* Strong Uptrend: Most analyses show that BTC is in an uptrend in the medium and long term. In particular, the 200-day moving average supports this trend.
* Institutional Adoption and ETFs: US spot Bitcoin ETFs are supporting the market by increasing institutional investor flows. There are ETF expectations for other cryptos in the future.
* Supply Decrease (Halving): The recent halving has a positive effect on the long-term price by reducing Bitcoin supply.
* "Digital Gold" Perception: Demand for BTC, which is seen as digital gold due to inflation concerns, is increasing.
* New Technologies: Trends such as tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) and integration of artificial intelligence (AI) are bringing new areas of interest to the crypto market.
Short and Medium-Term Fluctuations: Corrections Possible
* Technical Indicators: RSI is in neutral territory, but past downtrends indicate short-term corrections.
* Support and Resistance Levels: $106,000 - $109,000 are resistance, while $97,000 - $98,500 are important support levels.
* Market Consolidation: Short-term digestion and volatility may be seen in the market.
Price Estimates: Extensive Uptrend Expectations
Different analysts set high price targets for 2025 and beyond. For example, Standard Chartered offers ambitious estimates such as $200,000 in 2025, while ARK offers ambitious estimates such as $1.2 million in 2030. Average expectations also point to above $160,000 by the end of 2025.
Conclusion: Bitcoin maintains its long-term upside potential, but it is important to be prepared for market fluctuations in the short term.
