Bitcoin Drops Below $60,000. The Crypto Could Fall This Low

Dow Jones07-04

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies were tumbling early on Thursday. The digital asset now looks to be nearing multiple crucial support levels.

Bitcoin was down 4.5% over the last 24 hours to $57.535.

Bitcoin hit a record high near $74,000 in mid-March amid a surge of interest from new spot exchange-traded funds but its price has dropped since then.

“A drop below $58K will disrupt the bullish picture, breaking the concentrated support area in the form of the 61.8% level ($60.3K), the 200-day moving average ($58.3K) and the previous low ($58.2K). In this case, be prepared for a drop to $51.0K with alarming consequences for the entire cryptocurrency market,” said Alex Kuptsikevich, a market analyst at FxPro. 

From the current position, a 12% drop toward $51,500 is more likely than the same amount of growth to $65,800, which markets the 50-day moving average, according to Kuptsikevich.

Ether—the second-largest crypto—was down 5.1% at $3,138 but has risen more than 65% over the past 12 months. 

The Securities and Exchange Commission recently approved critical rule changes to allow spot Ether exchange-traded funds to trade. The final approvals for the ETFs should come this summer, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler told senators in a recent budget hearing.

Smaller cryptos or altcoins were diving, with Solana falling 8.8%, Cardano dropping 5.2% and Dogecoin losing 6.3%.
