Bitcoin (BTC)Price  Structure Just Cracked – Why $70K Is Back in Play

The Bitcoin price just lost an important level, and the chart is starting to look heavy again. Price dropped under $85,000 and is now trading near $84,400. This move did not come out of nowhere. It follows a clean rejection near the $95,000–$98,000 zone, where sellers stepped in with force.

The bigger issue is structure. Bitcoin was moving inside a rising channel for weeks. That channel has now failed. Once price slipped below the lower boundary, buyers did not step up. Instead, the market accelerated lower.

On the chart, the Bitcoin price formed a classic bear flag after the last sharp drop. Price moved sideways and slightly upward, then rolled over again. That pattern has now broken to the downside.

This type of setup often leads to continuation moves. In this case, the measured targets sit much lower than the current price. The first zone to watch is around $75,000. If that level fails, the next area of interest sits near $70,000, where buyers defended price in earlier sessions.

The rejection near $98,000 was the turning point. That zone acted as strong resistance and capped the entire move higher. Once Bitcoin failed there, momentum faded quickly.

After that rejection, the BTC price broke below short-term support and never recovered. Each bounce since then has been weaker. That tells us sellers are still in control of the tape.

Key Levels on the BTC Chart

Presently, the market is holding within a well-defined zone. The support lies around $75,000, with a stronger one at $70,000 should the pressure persist. On the other hand, the charts will only improve if Bitcoin manages to close above $90,600.

The Bitcoin price is no longer in a neutral phase. The structure has changed, and the chart is pointing lower. The trend is one of caution. Sellers are in control, and buyers must prove their worth once again. Until then, the journey to $75K, and perhaps $70K, remains very much on the cards.

Michael Saylor Pushes Digital Capital Narrative At Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference

The post Michael Saylor Pushes Digital Capital Narrative At Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The suitcoiners are in town.  From a low-key, circular podium in the middle of a lavish New York City event hall, Strategy executive chairman Michael Saylor took the mic and opened the Bitcoin Treasuries Unconference event. He joked awkwardly about the orange ties, dresses, caps and other merch to the (mostly male) audience of who’s-who in the bitcoin treasury company world.  Once he got onto the regular beat, it was much of the same: calm and relaxed, speaking freely and with confidence, his keynote was heavy on the metaphors and larger historical stories. Treasury companies are like Rockefeller’s Standard Oil in its early years, Michael Saylor said: We’ve just discovered crude oil and now we’re making sense of the myriad ways in which we can use it — the automobile revolution and jet fuel is still well ahead of us.  Established, trillion-dollar companies not using AI because of “security concerns” make them slow and stupid — just like companies and individuals rejecting digital assets now make them poor and weak.  “I’d like to think that we understood our business five years ago; we didn’t.”  We went from a defensive investment into bitcoin, Saylor said, to opportunistic, to strategic, and finally transformational; “only then did we realize that we were different.” Michael Saylor: You Come Into My Financial History House?! Jokes aside, Michael Saylor is very welcome to the warm waters of our financial past. He acquitted himself honorably by invoking the British Consol — though mispronouncing it, and misdating it to the 1780s; Pelham’s consolidation of debts happened in the 1750s and perpetual government debt existed well before then — and comparing it to the gold standard and the future of bitcoin. He’s right that Strategy’s STRC product in many ways imitates the consols; irredeemable, perpetual debt, issued at par, with…
