Trump downplays Iran conflict’s gas price effect, ceasefire odds fall

A cluster of roughly 650,000 Bitcoin sits at the $70,000–$72,000 price range — 
coins bought by investors who are now waiting to break even. That supply 
overhang is the wall Bitcoin must climb if its March recovery is going to mean 
anything. Related Reading: Ripple’s RLUSD Stablecoin Sits On $1.57 Billion In 
Reserves: Audit Firm A Streak That Hasn&#8217;t Been Seen Since 2018 Bitcoin closed 
March up 2%, snapping five consecutive months of losses. It was the longest 
such run of red monthly candles since 2018, and data from CoinGlass confirms 
the streak is over. The final close puts Bitcoin at roughly $68,250 as April 
opens, with traders watching closely to see whether the momentum holds or 
fades. The last time Bitcoin strung together six straight losing months was in 
2018 going into early 2019. What followed was a sharp turnaround — Bitcoin 
went on to post gains exceeding 300% over the next five months. THIS IS A 
MASSIVE DOSE OF HOPIUM. Bitcoin just printed its first green monthly candle 
after 5 consecutive red months. Let’s hope this is not an April Fool&#8217;s joke.

analysts are pointing to that episode as a rough blueprint for what could come 
next. Analyst Ash Crypto called the March close &#8220;a massive dose of hopium&#8221; on 
X, pointing to the possible shift in momentum as a sign that a sustained 
recovery could be underway. Trader Satoshi Flipper noted on X that the last 
time Bitcoin fell for six months straight, it climbed for the following five. 
That kind of historical comparison draws attention, though it rests on a 
single prior example. Last time BTC dumped 6 months in a row, it pumped the 
following 5 months in a row that came after! What are our next 5 months going 
to look like after BTC just finished dumping 5 months in a row?

The $70,000 Zone Is The Real Test The $70,000–$72,000 range isn&#8217;t just a round 
number. It&#8217;s where the 50-day simple moving average, the 50-day exponential 
moving average, and the cost basis of a large block of investors all converge. 
Data from Glassnode shows that approximately 650,000 BTC were acquired in that 
price range — meaning a significant number of holders are underwater and 
likely to sell once they recover their losses. Breaking through that zone 
could open the door to $76,000, and potentially $80,000 after that. Trader 
Sheldon Diedericks said on X that Bitcoin could push up toward $83,000 on the 
monthly chart — a level that acted as support back in April 2025 and sits 
close to the 200-day exponential moving average. If the rally stalls, the 
floor levels matter just as much. The 200-week exponential moving average sits 
around $68,300 — just below where Bitcoin is currently trading. Below that, 
$59,400 marks the 200-week simple moving average, and around $54,000 sits 
Bitcoin&#8217;s realized price, a level watched closely as a potential bear market 
floor. Related Reading: Bitcoin ETFs Pull In $56B As CEO Pitches Crypto Over 
Gold April Has A Mixed Track Record Here&#8217;s the complication: April doesn&#8217;t 
always follow March&#8217;s lead. Based on data going back to 2013, Bitcoin has 
closed April in the green eight out of 13 years, with average returns around 
12%. But nine out of those same 13 years, April moved in the opposite 
direction from March. More recently, Bitcoin dropped in April after a green 
March close in three of the four years between 2021 and 2024. Featured image
