Bitcoin is now retesting the psychological $100,000 price level again after a 2.22% decline in the past 24 hours. Notably, Bitcoin recently rebounded around an order block at $99,200 in the past 24 hours as it continues to trade with intense volatility.
Meanwhile, crypto analyst Ali Martinez has pointed to $97,190 as a key support level, stressing that Bitcoin must stay above it to maintain its bullish trajectory. This insight comes amidst sharp price swings that have tested investor sentiment, but optimism remains strong as data indicates many traders continue to bet on Bitcoin’s upward trajectory. Bitcoin’s Key Support Level Identified At $97,190
As Martinez noted,$97,190 is one of the most critical support levels for Bitcoin, and holding above it is crucial to sustainingthe bull market. This insight is backed by data from on-chain analytics platform IntoTheBlock. Particularly, the data is revealed through the In/Out Of Money Around Price metric from IntoTheBlock, which tracks the number of addresses making or losing money at the current price of a crypto asset.

In the case of Bitcoin, about 73% of addresses that bought Bitcoin at the current trading range are in profit. A significant portion of these, approximately 1.45 million addresses, bought Bitcoin between $95,727 and $98,719 at an average price of $97,190. These addresses collectively hold about 1.36 million BTC around this level, making it one of the most densely concentrated areas of holdings in the current cycle.
Given this concentration of holdings, Bitcoin must maintain its positionabove $97,190 to preserve its bullish momentum and keep sentiment positive among traders. A break below this level could push many of these holders toward break-even, increasing the likelihood of panic selling.This could, in turn, trigger further downside pressure and create a cascading effect on the Bitcoin price.
