Market overview

 

BTC is currently establishing a base between $65,000 and $69,000. If it holds above $65,300, it may target the previous high of $74,000 after adjusting over a longer period. 

Altcoins are likely to see a major surge only after BTC achieves new highs. For now, market movements are segmented, and cohesive capital formation is challenging due to low risk appetite among on-market funds.

A BTC rally could attract external capital, potentially leading to discoveries in undervalued altcoins.
