Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at a critical level as market participants watch 
closely for its next major move. A crypto analyst has revealed that the 
leading cryptocurrency is approaching a make-or-break level as it hovers 
around a key support zone that has been holding the price in the short term. 
The analyst has also outlined clear upside and downside levels that could 
determine whether the Bitcoin price regains momentum towards $90,000 or faces 
renewed downward pressure. Bitcoin To Face Make Or Break Zone At $100,000 In 
an X post this Monday, crypto expert CyrilXBT presented a fresh Bitcoin market 
outlook suggesting its price could be nearing a critical make-or-break level. 
He noted that Bitcoin was still in a broader downtrend from its peak, but 
recent price action suggested the market may be forming a base rather than 
continuing lower. Related Reading: Expert Predicts The Most Realistic 
Timeframe For XRP Price To Reach $100 The accompanying chart clearly reflected 
this bearish structure. It showed a series of lower highs after the market 
peak, reinforcing the idea that BTC is presently in a decline. Price action 
was also compressed into a tight range above a highlighted support zone, 
signaling indecision between buyers and sellers. According to CyrilXBT, 
fortunately, the $84,000 to $88,000 zone has been doing most of the heavy 
lifting, with buyers actively defending it. He revealed that repeated tests of 
this range had failed to produce a decisive breakdown, showing that demand 
remained present despite sustained selling pressure. CyrilXBT has stated that 
as long as Bitcoin continues to hold the $84,000 to $88,000 region, prices 
will move upward at a slow but steady pace rather than making an explosive 
move. He noted that this type of structure often pushes BTC toward the $92,000 
to $95,000 range, which he has set as BTC’s first upside target. This move is 
described as a recovery attempt within the existing trend rather than a 
complete reversal. The analyst pointed to $100,000 as the most important level 
above the current price. He noted that this level had previously provided 
strong support and had now flipped to resistance. He further described 
$100,000 as the true make-or-break level that would determine whether Bitcoin 
could regain bullish momentum. Related Reading: XRP Holders Are In For More

Fails In his post, CyrilXBTC noted that if BTC fails to hold $100,000, its 
price outlook could turn bearish quickly. The crypto analyst disclosed that a 
loss of the $84,000 area could trigger a steeper decline toward lower support 
zones between $76,000 and $72,000. He also indicated that this area 
represented the next major level at which buyers could step in to prevent 
further downside. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading above $87,000 
after declining by more than 8.5% this year. If a crash below $84,000 occurs, 
the cryptocurrency could lose between 12.6% and 17.2% of its market value.
