The recent slide in price of Bitcoin below the $60,000 threshold, followed by a subsequent drop below $50,000, might finally be showing signs of reversal, as suggested by the latest buying trends. These trends indicate a strong accumulation phase among large-scale investors, commonly known as whales, who have been capitalizing on the price dip to bolster their crypto holdings.

This data is highlighted through the analytic platform’s netflow data, which is crucial in forecasting an upcoming price uptick or downtrend for cryptocurrencies. The data highlights a significant shift, showing that outflows from exchanges have substantially outpaced inflows, with a staggering $1.7 billion more worth of BTC being withdrawn from exchanges than deposited. BTC recorded a whopping $1.7B net outflows from exchanges in the past week, the largest amount in over one year.

Recent dynamics in the wider world of investments and increased volatility saw Bitcoin falling below $50,000 again last week. Interestingly, this drastic price drop marked the first time Bitcoin traded below $50,000 in six months. However, be that as it may, the price decline gave many crypto believers a chance to accumulate more BTC at a six-month low. This created buying pressure among some traders, which in turn helped to prop up the price of BTC and helped to prevent further declines. A reduction in Bitcoin available on exchanges can have significant implications for the market. With fewer coins available for sale, buying pressure may increase, potentially driving up prices as demand remains steady or grows. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $60,989, having established support at $60,000.  Considering the prevailing bullish sentiment, this buying pressure may as well be the momentum that pushes the Bitcoin price to the challenging $70,000 price level. However, the journey to $70,000 presents four different resistance levels at $63,730, $65,510, $67,350, and $69,150.  The buying pressure continues to linger on according to the total flow to and from exchanges. The total flow data shows a negative 61.9% and 12.27% in the past 24 hours and seven-day timeframes, respectively.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Penetrating Mainstream Macro Capital Markets – What About Ethereum?
