Bitcoin (BTC) has been struggling to break above the $70,000 mark for several days now. Despite reaching $69,900 due to recent inflation data before the FED’s interest rate decision, BTC failed to surpass the $70,000 threshold. The cryptocurrency market experienced a significant downturn following the FED’s interest rate decision, leading some major investors to pull out of their positions. This exodus could have a substantial impact on the investment choices of smaller investors.
Bitcoin Sales on the Rise
The inability of BTC to surpass $70,000 since June 10 has caused anxiety among cryptocurrency investors. After dropping to $65,000 post the FED’s interest rate decision, BTC saw a recovery. For the latest financial and business news, visit COINTURK FINANCE.

Will BTC Price Increase?
Given the current data, uncertainties persist in the BTC market. Santiment data may play a crucial role in this regard.
According to Santiment, buying pressure on BTC is rising, suggesting a potential market upturn. Additionally, the decreasing supply on cryptocurrency exchanges, with funds moving out of exchanges, supports this notion.
Glassnode data also reveals a drop in BTC’s NVT ratio, historically associated with a price surge in the market.
While BTC’s price is near the lower boundary of the Bollinger Bands, signaling a bullish trend, the MACD indicator points to a possible further price decline.
