Bitcoin analysts look to bullish near-term
Bitcoin (BTC), which has reached three-week highs, retains its overnight gains. BTC’s weekly close was encouraging for some. Because Bitcoin has reached its highest level since the FTX scandal broke out. Now, analysts are hoping that the upside move will continue towards $20,000 as various resistance zones are in play. Popular analyst Michaël van de Poppe says in an update:
Slowly but surely, BTC is moving upwards. It needs to exceed $17.4-17.6K. But then we’ll likely continue fairly quickly towards $19,000.
