Bitcoin is consolidating around $66,000 following a sharp selloff, with bearish daily momentum but tightening short-term structure. The cryptocurrency needs to break above $68,000 to avoid another significant downward move, with the next breakout from current consolidation levels likely determining if this represents a bottom.
Bitcoin price is consolidating below $70K after reaching $68,180, facing key resistance at $67,000 with bearish trend line formation. The market awaits a breakout catalyst as BTC trades below the 100-hour moving average, with support at $65,500 and potential for further gains if resistance breaks.
Prominent cryptocurrency trader DonAlt, known for accurately predicting XRP's 700% surge, has issued a cautiously bullish Bitcoin price prediction targeting $80,000.

Market analyst Yonsei_dent predicts Bitcoin could drop to $31,500-$38,000 based on historical cycle patterns and the Supply In Profit indicator. This would represent a 70-75% drawdown from the cycle high, similar to the 2022 bear market that lasted six months in the bottom zone.
Technical analyst Ali Martinez identifies key Solana support levels at $50, $22, and $10 based on a Parallel Channel pattern in SOL's weekly price chart. The analysis suggests these levels could provide support if Solana continues declining from its recent rejection at the channel's upper resistance.
Bitcoin is attempting to stabilize after aggressive selling pressure that pushed the price toward $60K, with a recent rebound from $62K bringing it back to the channel's mid-boundary. This technical level has consistently acted as dynamic resistance during the downtrend, making it a critical juncture for determining Bitcoin's next directional move.
Telegram has introduced Vaults in TON Wallet allowing users to earn yield on BTC, ETH, and USDT, but Toncoin (TON) price continues declining. TON is trading near $1.29 in heavily oversold territory with key support at $1.23-$1.26 and resistance at $1.41-$2.02.

XRP surged above $1.34 on strong trading volume but faces headwinds from weak fundamentals and technical resistance that may limit further gains. The breakout lacks sufficient bullish momentum to suggest a sustained rally, leaving the price action contested between buyers and overhead sellers.
XRP price failed to break above $1.3550 resistance and has entered a downside correction, now trading below $1.3220 and the 100-hourly moving average. The cryptocurrency faces key resistance at $1.3380 with a bearish trendline, while support levels sit at $1.3080 and $1.30.

Ethereum price is consolidating above $2,140 after a recovery wave, but faces strong resistance at $2,175 and $2,200 levels. Technical indicators show weakening momentum with MACD losing steam and RSI below 50, suggesting potential downside risk if key resistance levels aren't cleared.
Bitcoin is recovering above $70,000 with key resistance at $71,650 determining the next directional move. The price needs to clear $71,650 to target higher levels around $72,650-$73,500, while failure could lead to a decline toward $69,200-$68,800 support zones.

Dogecoin has surged above $0.0950 and is consolidating near $0.10 after reaching a high of $0.1013. Technical analysis suggests potential for further upside if DOGE maintains support above $0.0955, with key resistance at $0.1020.
Uniswap (UNI) is consolidating in an ascending triangle pattern between $3.80-$4.10, with technical analysis suggesting a potential 30% rally to $5.30 if it breaks above resistance, or a 30% correction to $2.80 if support fails.
