After this rise, Bitcoin struggled to stay above $26,500, settling just under $26,000. Now, $25,900 acts as a support level.&nbsp;<figure class="image"><img src="https://cimg.co/news/124819/329712/btc.jpg" srcset="" width="" class="content-img" alt=""><figcaption>Bitcoin Price Chart - Source: Tradingview</figcaption></figure>Bullish signs are evident from key metrics like the RSI and MACD, with the 50-day exponential moving average suggesting continued growth, provided Bitcoin stays over $25,600.&nbsp;Falling beneath this could risk descending to $25,400 or even $24,950. If Bitcoin clears $26,500, it might aim for $27,000 or $27,500.&nbsp;Essentially, the $26,500 mark is crucial: below it might indicate a bearish shift, while above it suggests ongoing bullish momentum.<h2 id="strong-top-15-cryptocurrencies-to-watch-in-2023-strong">Top 15 Cryptocurrencies to Watch in 2023</h2>To stay at the forefront of the digital asset landscape, consider exploring our curated list of the top 15 alternative cryptocurrencies and ICO projects to watch in 2023.This compilation is a collaborative effort between experts at Industry Talk and Cryptonews, offering you expert advice and insightful perspectives to guide your cryptocurrency investment decisions.Keep abreast of the latest trends and uncover the potential of these digital assets.<div class="raw-html-embed"><div style="background: #920047;margin-bottom: 20px;width: 50%;text-align: center;padding: 8px;border-radius: 5px;background-image: linear-gradient(107deg,#930046,#59008a);color: white;padding-left: 1em;padding-right: 1em; font-size: 16px;"><a style="text-decoration:none;color:white" href="https://cryptonews.com/news/new-cryptocurrency.htm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noindex">See the 15 Cryptocurrencies</a></div></div><h2 id="strong-find-the-best-price-to-buy-sell-cryptocurrency-strong">Find The Best Price to Buy/Sell Cryptocurrency</h2><figure class="image"><img src="https://cimg.co/news/124752/329577/image.jpg" alt="" srcset="https://cimg.co/news/124752/329577/responsive-images/image___media_library_original_1447_563.jpg 1447w, https://cimg.co/news/124752/329577/responsive-images/image___media_library_original_1200_467.jpg 1200w, https://cimg.co/news/124752/329577/responsive-images/image___media_library_original_900_350.jpg 900w, https://cimg.co/news/124752/329577/responsive-images/image___media_library_original_720_280.jpg 720w, https://cimg.co/news/124752/329577/responsive-images/image___media_library_original_600_233.jpg 600w, https://cimg.co/news/124752/329577/responsive-images/image___media_library_original_300_117.jpg 300w" sizes="100vw" width="1447" class="content-img"><figcaption>Cryptocurrency Price Tracker - Source: Cryptonews</figcaption></figure>Disclaimer: Cryptocurrency projects endorsed in this article are not the financial advice of the publishing author or publication - cryptocurrencies are highly volatile investments with considerable risk, always do your own research.
