The post Bitcoin Is At ‘Pivotal Level’ As $65K Downside Risk Looms: Analyst appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin could fall toward its February yearly low if it fails to maintain support above the $70,000 level, according to a crypto analyst. “Bitcoin is at a pivotal level, and if it doesn’t hold, we’re buying at <$65K,” MN Trading Capital founder Michael van de Poppe said in an X post on Saturday. Bitcoin (BTC) reached a yearly low of $60,000 in early February before recovering to $73,873 at the time of publication, according to CoinMarketCap. It comes as crypto market participants are divided over whether Bitcoin’s early February price of $60,000 marked the bottom of the cycle, or if further downside still lies ahead. Bitcoin may break above $76,000 if the current level holds Veteran trader Peter Brandt said in March that $60,000 may not be the lowest level for 2026, forecasting that Bitcoin could retest or even move “slightly lower” than the price level in September or Octob

FBI’s Operation Blackout seized over $8 billion and dismantled a global crypto scam network. Nearly 2,000 trafficked workers were freed as authorities shut down scam compounds worldwide. The FBI says crypto fraud networks increasingly combine scams, money laundering, and trafficking. The FBI has broken up a vast cryptocurrency fraud network that authorities say stole billions of dollars from victims around the world.

The post Could XRP Hit $10 This Bull Run? World’s Highest IQ Holder Thinks So appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
XRP investment products pulled in close to $12 million in a single day on May 29, pushing total net inflows to roughly $1.42 billion — the token’s strongest ETF month of 2026 so far. Yet despite that institutional interest, XRP is still trading near $1.34, far below where some of its loudest supporters say it should be. A Fresh Target From A Familiar Voice YoungHoon Kim, who claims the title of world’s highest-IQ holder, posted a pointed statement on X this week: XRP will reach between $5 and $10 this cycle. A day earlier, he had teased that the token was about to explode — and the price target followed shortly after, drawing immediate attention across crypto social media.

The post BTC Below Cost Basis: Support Turns Resistance appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Bitcoin’s latest bounce kept failing in the same band: the high‑$70,000s. Each push stalled, and sellers appeared where dips used to get bought. That is not just a chart pattern—it is an on‑chain shift. Fresh cohort cost bases are now overhead. The recent 30‑day cost‑basis zone—the breakeven for late buyers—has flipped from a floor into a ceiling. When that happens, rallies look like exit liquidity. Add options flows and ETF redemptions, and you have a recipe for “support turned resistance” that goes beyond narratives and shows up in the data. The Big Picture Editor’s note: In Q2 2026 I watched a familiar pattern return: cost-basis bands that acted as springboards earlier in the year became sell zones exactly when ETF flows cooled and options skew leaned defensive. Several desks I speak with flagged how a compressed realized vol backdrop made negative gamma near key strikes far more consequenti
The post Solana Must Hold Above Crucial $78 Level – Analyst Explains Why appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Data from CoinMarketCap shows that Solana (SOL) has registered no significant net price change in the last month. However, daily price analysis shows that the prominent altcoin reached a local peak near $97 in early May before entering its current downtrend. Presently, the Solana market is dominated by bearish sentiment, alongside the broader market, as indicated by its weekly price loss of 4.09%. In an X post on May 30, renowned market analyst Ali Martinez shares a key insight on the Solana market, highlighting a horizontal channel formation on the daily chart. For context, the horizontal channel is formed by two flat, parallel lines that act as support and resistance, within which the price moves sideways. It is usually indicative of a market in consolidation, where a breakout above resistance (the upper boundary) is a bullish signal, and a breakdown below support (the lower
The post Crypto Sentiment Reaches Most ‘Lopsided Positive’ Ratio for 2026: Santiment appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
The feeling toward Bitcoin on social media has reached its most bullish level of the year, even as the overall crypto market is down, according to crypto sentiment platform Santiment. “Sentiment on Bitcoin has spiked to 2.23 bullish comments for every bearish one — the most lopsided positive ratio of 2026,” Santiment said in a report published on Saturday. “The previous two biggest positive-ratio days of the year preceded short-term price pullbacks, while severely negative readings marked local bottoms. The current euphoria contrasts sharply with the bearish ETF flow picture and warrants caution,” Santiment said. Spot Bitcoin ETFs logged their tenth consecutive trading day of outflows on Friday, with total net redemptions exceeding $2.97 billion since May 15.

Bitcoin’s oversold bounce from $72.5K support sets up a 65% probability move to $82K+ within 6 weeks, but only after retesting $68K psychological support first.
Market Context: Why BTC is Moving Now Bitcoin’s current consolidation around $73.6K reflects a classic mid-cycle correction that’s shaking out leveraged longs while institutional accumulation continues below the surface. The January optimism has given way to reality-checking price action, creating the foundation for the next major move. The derivatives market reveals the underlying strength – funding rates at a neutral 0.0035% indicate no frothy speculation, while open interest climbing 2.36% in 24 hours shows serious players adding positions.
