Bitcoin price is back above a key resistance level, but are there sufficient bullish catalysts to sustain the current rally?
Bitcoin’s price dropped to $62,705 in the early hours of Sept. 26, causing bulls to temporarily lose hope after the third rejection at the $64,000 resistance level in just four days. However, the tide shifted as the United States stock market opened, propelling the S&P 500 index to a new all-time high. Bitcoin (BTC) soon followed, gaining over 3% to reclaim the $65,000 level.

Some market analysts believe that Bitcoin’s path to $70,000 has been reinforced by macroeconomic trends, including lowered interest rates in the US and renewed interest from long-term institutional investors. Essentially, fears of a stock market bubble have been fading after signs of robust economic growth paired with US housing prices reaching an all-time high.
