With Bitcoin dipping below $70,000 and recovering, crypto analyst Ali Martinez’s prediction of a bounce near $69,000 aligns with recent trading data. On Oct. 27, he forecasted a potential Bitcoin rally to $78,000 if a pullback to $69,000 holds. His analysis suggested Bitcoin needs to maintain support above $65,000 to secure upward momentum.
IntoTheBlock data shows large transaction volume decreasing by 9.7% and daily active addresses marginally up by 0.7%. Transactions greater than $100,000 are down from 11,191 to 10,825 in a single day. All Bitcoin holders are currently in profit, with exchange netflows down by 75%.
