Bitcoin Struggling at $12,000 is Only a Small Problem

August 17, 2020 by Utkarsh Gupta

Time and Time again, a resistance zone is seemingly getting attention from the community, which becomes Bitcoin’s immediate forward struggle. During the early period of 2020, The resistance set by $10,450 was considered the next big proving point, and right now, the tale is repeating with respect to the $12,000.

Bitcoin and Ethereum hit their yearly high of 2020 together during the last week of July and on the 1st of August. Since then, Ethereum has gone on to eclipse its $400 high, clocking in $423 at first, and then $442 over the past 24-hours. The same hasn’t been the case for Bitcoin, which was still under $11,900 at the time of writing this article.

However, the $12,000 resistance for Bitcoin was fundamentally more dependent on its macroeconomics than the momentum of a bull run, here’s why.

Bitcoin $12,000 will break because of retail and institution

A huge difference between Bitcoin rallies of the past to present is the fact that accredited players are involved in the BTC market at the moment. When Bitcoin dipped down to $11,000 on 2nd August, it was retail and institutional investors who were trying to buying the asset but a large portion of the market was selling as well.

Now, according to a recent report, because of the increasing net position of the CME Bitcoin Futures(Retail), institutional investors were getting forced to play their hand as well in the market.

The improved net position depicted in the chart is a prime example that the trend is moving between unassured investors, to the accredited ones. The report mentioned that over time, the “smart money” from institutions would flood into Bitcoin, raising the net position even more.

The strong fundamental thing attested to the current bullish rally is that investors were not selling off under bearish pressure. During the time of 2017, or mid-2019, when Bitcoin peaked at their highs, the correction was quick to follow because the potential was not evaluated well.

The Open-Interest is a great example of the increased interest. 2020 has seen multiple exchanges registering high all-time high OIs and there is with respect to lack of strong foundation.

2020 has already been a game-changer for Bitcoin. There is no doubt $12,000 will be breached soon as well because the narrative of this bullish rally is far more strengthened than any other rally over the past couple of years.
