In the past 24 hours, Bitcoin and Ethereum have experienced minor declines, with Bitcoin falling 0.2% and Ethereum 0.3%. Despite this, major altcoins like BNB, Solana, Tron, Dogecoin, Hyperliquid, and Cardano have shown gains of up to 2%.
Bitcoin continues to hold its support zone between $76,000 and $76,500, with a potential breakout area at $77,900 to $78,500. A move above $78,500 could push Bitcoin towards $80,000 to $82,000 due to heavy short positioning. Meanwhile, Ethereum remains weaker, trading below major moving averages, with a potential upward move if it reclaims $2,200.
The global crypto market capitalization has decreased by 0.2% to $2.59 trillion. The fear & greed index remains at 40, indicating neutral market sentiments. Over the past week, Bitcoin and Ethereum have seen declines of 4% and 6% respectively, while altcoins like BNB, XRP, Solana, Dogecoin, and Cardano have fallen up to 8%. However, Tron and Hyperliquid have risen by 3% and 23% respectively.
“Technically, Bitcoin continues to hold the $76,000–$76,500 support zone, while $77,900–$78,500 remains the immediate breakout area.”

Bitcoin is attempting to stabilize after a volatile session, bouncing from the $76.7K to $77K area and currently trading near $77.5K. ETF outflows continue to impact the market, but limited selling from top ETF holders and falling exchange reserves suggest long-term holders are not exiting.
Bitcoin's current levels are supported by rising long-to-short ratios among top traders, strengthening the $76,000 support zone. However, persistent Bitcoin ETF outflows and rising U.S. bond yields weigh on market sentiment.
Background
Bitcoin and Ethereum's price movements are closely watched by investors as they navigate through market volatility and macroeconomic factors. The ongoing ETF outflows and the behavior of long-term holders provide insights into market sentiment.
As the market navigates these fluctuations, investors should watch for potential breakout movements and monitor macroeconomic developments that could impact cryptocurrency valuations.
