1. Bitcoin Tests $80,000 Resistance as Global Stocks and Gold Rally in Tandem
BTC retest $80K: Bitcoin traded around $79,000 as global stocks and gold rallied simultaneously, with the Short-Term Holder Cost Basis at $80,100 emerging as the next key resistance level where increased selling pressure is expected.
🔎 Insider Insight: With over 50% of short-term holders back in profit and realized profit volume running nearly three times above levels that previously marked local tops, the $78k–$80.1k range is shaping up as a significant supply zone. Historical patterns suggest Bitcoin may need multiple attempts to break through before a sustained move higher.
