◆ Analysis of major media and market experts <Strengthening>
The industry believes that Bitcoin’s rapid recovery to the $58,000 level, despite the stock market downturn in recent weeks, demonstrates the strong confidence of investors in Bitcoin. In addition, many market experts predict the next level of resistance at the $60,000 level, and are optimistic about the breakthrough of the resistance band. However, there are always unexpected market changes, so it would be wise to have a perspective that doesn’t look only one way.
(Positive opinion)
① Cryptocurrency Media CoinDesk said, “In the 4-hour chart, Bitcoin’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has not yet been overbought, which shows that buyers are likely to maintain active movement above the $54,000 support line.” However, as the broader uptrend, which started in January, is slowing, traders need to continue to observe intraday resistance.”
② Glassnode analyst William Clement explained why the movement of so-called’whales’ who search for assets on exchanges for the purpose of holding bitcoin is not properly reflected in the price of bitcoin. He said the demand for bitcoin must first increase before the long-term holder’s effect can be reflected in the market. Clement predicts that the U.S. government’s supply of more currency through stimulus measures in relation to the new demand will help institutional investors increase their demand for cryptocurrency.
③ Cryptocurrency analyst PlanB, based on the stock-to-flow model, one of the leading indices that have been tracking Bitcoin (BTC) prices fairly accurately for many years, “Bitcoin bull market is now It’s just started,” he insisted.
Dan Morehead, founder and CEO of cryptocurrency hedge fund Pantera Capital, said, “According to the stock-to-flow model, Bitcoin will rise to $115,000 this summer. Predicted as “.
⑤ Cryptocurrency analyst Tone Vays said, “Bitcoin is consolidating (flooding), but it is still bullish,” and “before June, it will rise to more than $70,000.”
⑥ Mike McGlone, a senior product strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence under Bloomberg, recently tweeted, “Bitcoin is transitioning to an investor’s’Risk-Off’ option.” The value of Bitcoin is expected to be around $400,000.”
⑦ Cryptocurrency analyst Rakesh Upadhyay said, “On the 20th, the exponential moving average line (EMA, $55,090) began to rise, and the relative strength index (RSI) exceeded 59, and the buying forces took the lead. “If the buying trend continues to rise and exceeds the all-time high of $61,825.84, the rally is likely to continue to $69,279 and $79,566. However, the BTC/USD pair price fails to maintain the EMA on the 20th and 50%. If it falls below the daily simple moving average line (SMA·52,376 dollar line), it will be the first sign that the selling force is revived.”
⑧ Cointelegraph, a media specialized in cryptocurrency, said that Norway’s billionaire investor Scheystein Stray Spetalen, who criticized “Bitcoin is a ridiculous currency,” recently bought bitcoin into his personal account, followed by MiraiX, Norway’s largest cryptocurrency exchange. MiraiX) bought a stake,” he said. “The influx of new investors increased the demand for bitcoin, while the Hodlers holding tight stakes cut supply. This is likely to resume the uptrend.”
(Negative opinion)
① Forbes Cryptocurrency Research Director and Analyst Steven Ehrlich diagnosed that “Bitcoin price could fall for weeks due to the rise of long-term interest rates in the United States.” In this regard, he said, “Rising interest rates make safer investment strategies more attractive, and since Bitcoin is not a safe investment, the price of bitcoin may continue to decline over the next few weeks. In addition, some institutional investors who have entered the market over the past few months have seen some institutional investors who have entered the marketplace. Bitcoin’s bullish momentum may have been exhausted because it is currently making enough profits Bitcoin is being promoted as a safe asset, but is in fact an asset similar to a growth stock, as long as the Fed’s interest rate hike is projected, this will be a short-term bitcoin bad news. I can,” he explained.
◆Comprehensive Analysis of Bitcoin Market Price <Strengthening>
With the influx of strong buying, the daily bitcoin market price (see Figure 5-1) is on the verge of surpassing $60,000. With the inflow of low-priced buying, it will once again challenge the $60,000 breakthrough, which failed to break through twice since mid-February.
Technically, it is an upward trend that raises the highs and lows, and a strong upward trend is expected as it has crossed the upper trend line of the triangular convergence pattern, and an increase in trading volume is essential for this to continue. In addition, if the price of Bitcoin exceeds the $61,800 mark, which is the previous high, it is expected that the bitcoin market price will once again enter the unprecedented area.
One concern is that bitcoin dominance has fallen below 60% as altcoins’ yields have recently risen. It should be remembered that this means that if not right now, the moment the altcoin price runs out, there will be a big price adjustment. Another reason for this is the bitcoin option skew index (see Figure 5-2).If this value is above ‘0’, it means that option market investors see the market positively after the period, and it is below ‘0’. It means thinking negatively. According to the data calculated by our research institute, 7 days, which is the very short term, was more than ‘0’, but even now, more than 2 weeks are all negatives. Of course, now is the time to increase each person’s return to the highest level by buying.

Analyzing the day’s trading volume of BTC/USD and ETH/USD on-chain data makes it easy to check the direction of the bitcoin market and respond to it. Indices 1 and 3 in Figure 10 represent the spot trading volumes of 10 major exchanges (Binance, Bitfinex, PoloniX, Bitex, Coinbase, Bitstamp, Kraken, HitbittyC, Gemini), 2 and 4. The indicator calculates the total number of purchases and the total amount of sales in real time, and indicates the direction of the market trend by displaying the price volatility according to the rise and fall.
Looking at indicators 1 and 2 in Figure 10, it can be seen that the trading volume of BTC and ETH on the day has decreased from the previous day. Of course, since the transaction time remains, it is expected to increase further.If you look at indicators 3 and 4, the price volatility indicator indicates an increase in Bitcoin and a decrease in Ethereum. The market price is expected to be somewhat weak. However, it does not mean that the trend is undermined.
② Bitcoin price and Korea premium index trend analysis <strong>
As the price of Bitcoin and Ethereum rose, the crossing phenomenon with the kimchi premium index, which was concerned, did not persist and normalized. In addition, the two stocks’ trends are expected to continue to rise as long as the direction they are facing is opposite.
