Market Moves by Omkar Godbole Bitcoin’s ‘Rich List’ Continues to Snap Up Cheap Coins Blockchain data shows sustained bargain hunting by large bitcoin (BTC) holders despite persistent gloom and doom in the market. Addresses carrying at least 1,000 BTC, known as the "rich list" or "whales," held 7.89 million coins at press time, an addition of 80,000 since May 19's price crash to $30,000, according to data provided by Santiment.The total held by the rich list hit a three-month high of 7.91 million earlier this week. "Whales aren't slowing down their accumulation," Santiment tweeted early today. "This is a strong vote of confidence for bulls, seeing top key stakeholders are increasing their bags." Bitcoin held by addresses owning atleast 1K BTC (Source: Santiment) The increase by long-term holders signals accumulation during the bear trend, according to blockchain analytics firm Glassnode.The data show whales and long-term holders remain confident of the cryptocurrency's prospects. Nevertheless, the cryptocurrency may see short-term losses if the U.S. consumer price index, scheduled for release at 12:30 UTC on Thursday, exceeds expectations, boosting concerns of an early unwinding of stimulus by the Federal Reserve. "Large upside scare to the [CPI] print will make the downside below $30,000 very vulnerable, and we are most concerned with that now," QCP Capital said in its Telegram channel. The impending death cross, or the bearish crossover of the 50-day and 200-day simple moving averages, is also hinting at the scope for deeper losses. Prices rose more than 10% on Wednesday, hitting highs above $37,400 even as China announced a ban on virtual-currency mining operations in Qinghai province. El Salvador's decision to adopt bitcoin as legal tender likely buoyed sentiment.

Technician's Take by Damanick Dantes, CMT Bitcoin Rallies from Oversold Levels; Faces Resistance at $40K Bitcoin (BTC) broke above initial resistance at $36,000 after a near 13% rise on Wednesday. The next resistance level is seen at $40,000, which capped upside moves over the past two weeks.
The short-term trend is improving after a series of lower price highs since May. The weekly chart is showing initial signs of downside exhaustion, which could stabilize the month-long corrective phase.
Bitcoin four-hour chart shows short-term support and resistance levels with RSI (Source: TradingView) Bitcoin returned above the 100-period moving average on the four-hour chart and is approaching short-term overbought levels.Buyers could remain active towards $40,000 which is also near the 200-day moving average. The cryptocurrency was trading around $38,000 at press time. If a pullback occurs, bitcoin should find initial support around $34,000. Lower support around $30,000 was tested multiple times over the past two weeks as buyers return. Bitcoin will need to break free of the short-term consolidation phase to maintain the bullish uptrend. For now, recoveries appear limited given strong overhead resistance. Read the original story here: Bitcoin Rallies from Oversold Levels; Faces Resistance at $40K
