Where’s BTC Heading Next?</a> appeared first on <a rel="nofollow" href="https://coinpedia.org">Coinpedia Fintech News</a> 
Following a significant sell-off triggered by FTX’s crypto liquidation news, <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/how-did-bitcoin-and-ethereum-react-to-the-cpi-report/">Bitcoin</a> is now showing signs of a recovery rally. In recent hours, the price of BTC has been climbing steadily, fueled by renewed investor interest in buying the dip. Additionally, current on-chain data points toward the potential for a sharp upward trend for Bitcoin by month’s end.&nbsp;

Amid the <a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/ftxs-3-4-billion-asset-liquidation-may-disrupt-crypto-market-whats-in-store-today/">demotivating sentiment</a> of the cryptocurrency market, there’s rising bullish data surrounding Bitcoin (BTC), setting the stage for a possible significant price surge. Recent data from Blockware Solutions and Glassnode indicate that only 5.4% of Bitcoin’s circulating supply was active on-chain in the past month, hitting a new record low. This suggests that less trading is occurring, which often signals a weak supply side. As of the latest reports, Bitcoin’s circulating supply stands at 19.48 million.&nbsp;

 Blockware Solutions said, “Price is set at the margin, which means those who trade Bitcoin back and forth drive short-term price action. As supply-side illiquidity continues to increase, as indicated by fewer supply exchanging hands, any demand catalyst will send the price skyrocketing.” 
</blockquote> 
Approximately 70% of the circulating supply has been dormant for more than a year, indicating a strong “buy and hold” sentiment in the market. Glassnode notes that so-called long-term holders, defined as addresses retaining coins for a minimum of 155 days, control over three-quarters of the circulating supply. 
Whales are actively shifting large volumes of Bitcoin, contributing significantly to the upward momentum in BTC price. On-chain statistics show that in the past 48 hours, more than 1.4 million BTC have been transferred. Analysts interpret this high-volume activity as an indicator of a potential bullish surge, setting the stage for September to conclude on a bullish note.

The Bitcoin price has experienced a significant uptick in recent hours, rising from a low of $26,000 as buyers stepped up their efforts. Despite this, sellers are actively resisting an upward breakout beyond the EMA200 trend line on the 4-hour chart, aiming to curb any explosive growth. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $26,606, marking a 1.2% increase over the past 24 hours.

Although buyers are exerting pressure, they have yet to overcome a pivotal resistance level at $26,800, suggesting that the buying momentum weakens at these price levels. While the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates potential for a positive trend, it also hints at a possible downward adjustment, as the indicator currently resides in the overbought territory. 
A confirmed break and close above the 200-day EMA would be an initial indication of renewed strength, potentially paving the way for a consistent recovery toward $28K. 
However, a decline below the breakout point of $26K might trigger a wave of selling activity, bringing possibilities of a downturn.&nbsp;
