BTCUSD Bitcoin

Bitcoin has been a wild ride for investors lately, with the world’s most valuable cryptocurrency breaking through the $29,000 mark, only to be swiftly rejected. However, on-chain data is now revealing a concerning outlook for the future of Bitcoin. It seems that some traders and whales are cashing in following weeks of gains, which has sparked fears of an imminent decline. This development has left many investors concerned, wondering whether this is just a temporary pullback or the start of a larger correction. CoinMarketCap shows the current price of Bitcoin (BTC) is $27,779.40, down 3.6% in the last 24 hours. Despite the recent dip, Bitcoin’s 14-day increase is 10.1%, and the 30-day rally is 19.6%. This shows that Bitcoin’s overall trend is still bullish, but the recent pullback has some investors concerned.

While this may have disappointed some investors who were hoping for a sustained move above $29,000, it is important to remember that Bitcoin is a highly volatile asset. It is not uncommon for the price to experience sharp pullbacks after extended periods of gains.  BTC total market cap currently at $539 billion on the daily chart at TradingView.com Related Reading: These Top 5 Meme Coins Are Bleeding As March 2023 Ends – Here’s Why #Bitcoin $BTC The yellow dotted line indicates the beginning of 2023.
