<p>Van de Poppe highlights the importance of the $66,000 support level. He noted that as long as Bitcoin can hold this support, the market should remain stable. “I’d like $66K to be holding up as support, and then everything is fine,” van de Poppe stated.</p>
<p>The current market conditions have been described as quite monotonous by van de Poppe. With Bitcoin struggling to break higher and support levels being tested, the excitement in the market appears to be dull.</p>
