Bitcoins Price Stagnates at 64500 Indicating Uncertainty While Altcoins Respond

Bitcoin’s recent price movement has created anxiety among investors as it has slipped below the $65,000 mark. According to analyst Miles Deutscher, Bitcoin is currently just above the critical $64,000 level on the weekly chart, indicating potential danger. Deutscher also expressed concern about the weakened state of the altcoin market compared to Bitcoin.

Deutscher explained that Bitcoin has lost its position at the mid-range level of $66,500, and another significant level at $64,000 is also in play. In order to regain bullish momentum, Bitcoin needs to reclaim the $66,500 level and aim for the high range of around $73,000. However, at the moment, Bitcoin seems uncertain and may be heading lower. The $64,000 level is a crucial support level, and if it is breached, there could be a drop to the low range of $60,000.

On the other hand, Total 3 (excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum) is currently above the major support level at 560. This level is seen as a favorable buying zone for many altcoins if it aligns with the individual altcoin charts. Despite the overall downturn in the market, there are still buying opportunities for certain altcoins, especially during major liquidation cascades for those with a long-term perspective.

Deutscher explains that the relative weakness of altcoins compared to Bitcoin can be attributed to the market dynamics that began in 2021. During the bull run of 2021, the crypto market experienced a surge in capital, as evidenced by the stablecoin index. This led to high levels of investment activity, particularly from venture capital firms, which injected unprecedented amounts of money into the market.

Another factor that Deutscher points out is the influx of new tokens that were launched in early 2024 as the market showed signs of recovery. This surge in token supply, with over 1 million new tokens created since April 2024, overwhelmed the market despite increased liquidity from the Bitcoin ETF.

The increased token supply diluted the market, causing altcoins to underperform. Many major altcoins have struggled to match Bitcoin’s performance, with only a few exceptions managing to outperform Bitcoin since the collapse of FTX.
