Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed daily highs of $62,323 on Bitstamp.


Despite initial jobless claims coming in below expectations, U.S. unemployment data failed to spook crypto markets into fresh concerns over the path of inflation.


BTC/USD was up 2.3% on the day at the time of writing, and traders hoped that trajectory could be sustained in order to take ask liquidity above the spot price.


“Most of the liquidity lies above after testing the range lows at ~$59K and taking all the liquidity that sat there,” popular trader Daan Crypto Trades noted in part of an update on X.“It will be an interesting battle over the next couple of weeks with this new supply overhang added.”BTC/USDT perp liquidiation heatmap.

Fellow trader Jelle added that the sell pressure narrative originating from both the U.S. and German governments in recent weeks had not made itself felt on the market.


“Looks like Bitcoin’s range lows are holding - despite the US & German governments selling coins & Mt. Gox finally paying back creditors,” he suggested.


Daan Crypto Trades acknowledged another encouraging sign in the form of a second consecutive day of net inflows to the U.S. spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Zooming out, Axel Adler Jr., a contributor to onchain analytics platform CryptoQuant, queried how long the BTC price retracement from March’s all-time highs could last.

Comparing recent price action from years past, he argued that Bitcoin was copying behavior last seen at the end of 2019.


“The current market closely resembles the correction of 2019-20, making it the most likely scenario for this correction, which lasted 5 months with a maximum drawdown of -46%,” he wrote in an X commentary on the day.BTC/USD bull market correction drawdowns. Source: Axel Adler Jr./X


Adler added that all may still change — disrupting the status quo was a matter of 500,000 BTC ($31 billion) in buying pressure.


“History is not obliged to repeat itself,” he concluded.“An active buyback exceeding 500K BTC could trigger the end.”BTC supply in profit. Source: Axel Adler Jr./X


In a separate analysis, Adler showed an 18% decrease in the portion of the BTC supply in profit, corresponding to an overall feeling of “pessimism” among hodlers.
