Altcoins showed impressive double-digit gains after Bitcoin bulls successfully pulled BTC price back above the $61,000 level.
Bitcoin (BTC) bulls are trying to stage a comeback by pushing the price above the psychologically crucial level of $60,000. Veteran trader Peter Brandt said in a X post that if Bitcoin holds the most recent lows and moves higher, it will be considered a “very common bull market continuation chart construction.”
Analysts are bullish on the long-term prospects of Bitcoin but do not expect the uptrend to start in a hurry. Bitfinex Alpha market report said that Bitcoin could stay range-bound for one to two months “with swings of $10,000 on either side.”
Traders are likely to keep a close watch on the spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds. According to Farside Investors data, the Bitcoin ETFs witnessed outflows of $563 million on May 1. The sentiment is likely to pick up after the Bitcoin ETFs witness net inflows for a few successive days. Former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes believes the sell-off has ended, and the crypto markets may head higher.
