 Market analysts have expressed concern over Bitcoin’s struggles to keep its price above $69,000. Notably, the cryptocurrency reached price levels above $71,000 in the last 24 hours but quickly fell back to <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/BTCUSD/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">$69,000</a> within a few hours.&nbsp;

The $69,000 point has been <a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://x.com/MI_Algos/status/1793114778749243405" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pegged as an important threshold</a> for which Bitcoin’s price movement should transition from resistance to support.

 Support at $69k needs to hold to have a chance to validate an R/S flip at the prior ATH. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/NFA?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">#NFA</a> <a href="https://t.co/Mqi2A1rmNu" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/Mqi2A1rmNu</a>

John Bollinger, who created the Bollinger Bands volatility indicator, shared his concerns in<a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://twitter.com/bbands/status/1793066211494019109?t=eZpaqrctD6tdPj9ql4uciA&amp;s=19" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"> a post on X</a> (formerly Twitter), stating,

 “I am not fond of the two-bar reversal at the upper Bollinger Band for $btcusd. Suggests a consolidation or a pullback. Not bearish here, just short-term concerned.”&nbsp;

They suggested the token’s drop might support their theory of an “ultra bull” scenario.&nbsp;
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
 It’s worth noting that if the “ultra bull” scenario does play out, there are some significant implications. On one hand it means downside from current levels is extremely limited and the next leg up begins sooner rather than later.

Meanwhile, some analysts have pointed to the speculations about Ethereum ETF approval in the U.S. as a factor to consider.&nbsp;

<blockquote class="pullquote align-center">
 “If ETH is approved this will take BTC to $80k and access to higher.&nbsp; Idea will be its a market dragger; funds will find their way. ETH ETF was priced in to some extent and it retraced, now still not reflecting possible outcome though if you believe analysts imo,”

they noted.
Filbfilb suggested that a positive ETF decision could fuel Bitcoin to reenter price discovery and even hit $80,000.
<a href="https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/ETHBTC/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">According to data from TradingView</a>, the ETH/BTC trading pair was at its highest levels since mid-March as of May 21, showing the impact of the Ethereum ETF speculations on the broader cryptocurrency market.&nbsp;
