Bitcoin’s Upside Threatened As Investors Eye Profit-Taking

Bitcoin surged above $50,000 for the first time since December 2021, breaking multiple resistance levels.

However, it retraced to the $49,800 mark, posing a crucial resistance level that could induce selling pressure in the Bitcoin market.

Lookonchain, an on-chain analytics platform, reported that around 375,000 addresses purchased approximately 119.48K Bitcoin, totaling $6 billion, at an average price of $50,227.81.

These addresses are now back in the red, potentially leading to selling pressure once they reach breakeven. Bitcoin had recently climbed above $48,491, with over 800,000 addresses holding approximately 270,000 BTC.

This shift in investor interest may jeopardize Bitcoin’s upward potential as investors increasingly show interest in taking profits following the correction.
