Should support be established at this level, traders would shift their outlook for the week to the all-time high of $73,837 based on CoinGecko data and subsequently to a new historical high of $80,000.

The Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) boasts $10.5 billion, topping other derivative platforms. Binance exchange comes second with $8.12 billion while Bybit closes the top three with $5.22 billion.
Rising open interest hinges on positive sentiment in the market. Despite the doldrums with Bitcoin oscillating between $67,000 and $70,000 for almost two weeks, investors are adamant that the trend will regain momentum in the next weeks, and months.
3. Bitcoin Price Presents Solid Technicals
Bitcoin is on the verge of an immediate breakout above the $70,000 mark. The renewed bullish comes after BTC tested and rebounded from support/resistance at the descending trend line illustrated on the daily chart.
The 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) in blue currently at $67,430 reinforces the above support area, creating a confluence.
Another bullish signal is highly likely from the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator. To validate this call to buy BTC, the blue MACD line must cross above the orange signal line.
Despite the solid technical structure, Bitcoin is required to close the day above $70,000 as the second confirmation of the uptrend. Otherwise, the dance between this level and support at $67,000 may continue this week.
Nevertheless, Bitcoin price prediction reveals that the coin has the potential to reach new all-time highs and perhaps continue with therapy to $100,000 in June and other months in the future buoyed by positive digital fund inflows, ETFs, and the elections in the US.
