Bitcoin Price Analysis: The weekend price action for <a href="https://coingape.com/markets/experts-top-3-bitcoin-spinoffs-with-100x-potential-before-june/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin</a> remained relatively stable demonstrated by neutral candle formation in the daily chart. The overhead supply at $67500 has triggered a modest intraday drop of 0.18% pushing the BTC value to $66807. However, a short downtick or consolidation is expected after a week-long recovery to stabilize the bullish momentum. Is a rally to $70000 possible for next week?

According to crypto analytics firm IntoTheBlock, Bitcoin holdings by addresses with over 1,000 BTC have surged by 250,000 BTC since the launch of <a href="https://coingape.com/bitcoin-price-soars-us-bitcoin-etf-sees-222m-influx-what-next/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin ETFs</a>. This increase has brought whale holdings back near the levels observed before the FTX collapse.
The accompanying chart from <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/intotheblock/status/1791846503062946046?t=NteDA3W3wlhIMvDrPVZHcQ&amp;s=35">IntoTheBlock</a> illustrates this recovery in whale balances alongside the rising price of Bitcoin. The increase in whale holdings since the ETF launch highlights the growing institutional interest and support for Bitcoin, which could further stabilize and elevate its market position.
However, With overhead supply at $67500 intact, the BTC price showcases its sustainability above $65000. If the level holds, the buyers could lead a rally of $74000.
