Bitcoin’s growth has been sluggish for the past weeks, and the traders are tired of these unpredictable movements of BTC/USD. Yesterday, the entire market went up when BTC reached its resistance at around $36K. It was suggested that if BTC/USD breaks this resistance, it will retest higher levels to reclaim them. However, it wasn’t possible for Bitcoin to do so.
The reason was that BTC lacked the momentum to do, and there is an excellent explanation for it. The market has been slowed down, and volumes have gone down by historical numbers. Bitcoin’s drop in price this past week led to various traders dropping out and waiting for particular movements to invest their money. As of now, BTC/USD is trading at $35K.
