Bitcoin Inches Closer to Major ‘Danger Zone’ as Halving Nears

Monday, 18 March 2024, 09:52

Bitcoin is on a positive note, recovering from losses following its ATH, but is approaching a critical 'danger zone' near the halving. Historical patterns show pre-halving retraces 14-28 days before the event. Analysts speculate on price action and potential ATH.

Bitcoin Nearing 'Danger Zone' as Halving Approaches

Although Bitcoin (BTC) has started the week on a positive note, recovering from the recent losses that followed its new all-time high (ATH), the maiden cryptocurrency is inching closer to a major ‘danger zone’ in which it has historically started to make its pre-halving retraces.

Highway to the danger zone

In other words, Bitcoin is about to enter another ‘danger zone’ in which the pre-halving retraces would typically begin, keeping in mind that the flagship decentralized finance (DeFi) asset is less than 30 days away from the halving and has already recorded a pullback last week.

At the same time, Bitcoin has demonstrated higher levels of liquidity to the upside in the past week, leaving analysts to wonder if traders will take it now or if market makers will bring the price down first for more liquidity to build on-top, and then make a move to grab it, as Bitcoinsensus noted on March 18.

Bitcoin price analysis

At press time, Bitcoin was changing hands at the price of $67,980, which suggests an increase of 2.36% in the last 24 hours, while declining 4.59% across the previous seven days but still holding onto the gain of 30.97% on its monthly chart, according to the latest price data.

Bitcoin price prediction

Meanwhile, in terms of specific numbers for the Bitcoin price prediction, another pseudonymous crypto analyst also noted that “history does not repeat, but it often rhymes,” sharing the expectation of Bitcoin “to take off soon” and “bring on $100,000” sometime in the future.
