The price now hovers just below the $110,000 mark\u2014a psychological barrier that, if breached, could open the door to a new phase of price discovery. Bulls appear firmly in control of the short-term trend, but confirmation is still needed through a clean breakout above this key threshold.<\/p>\n<p>According to fresh data from CryptoQuant, long-term holders (LTH) continue to play a pivotal role in this cycle. Throughout each of the three major rallies since November 2022, a pattern has emerged: LTH accumulation has preceded every major move higher. Now, at $100K, LTH accumulation is again rising steadily, suggesting this current consolidation could be laying the groundwork for yet another major rally.<\/p>\n<p>With<a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-absorbs-66b-in-profit-taking-from-recent-buyers-new-demand-keeps-price-stable\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \"> bullish momentum<\/a> strengthening and structural support intact, all eyes are on Bitcoin\u2019s ability to break above $110K. If it does, the next leg higher could be the strongest yet in this bull cycle.<\/p>\n<h2>Bitcoin Consolidates As Long-Term Holders Accumulate Once Again<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin is currently at a crossroads, holding key structural support yet struggling to define its next move. After rebounding above $105,000, the price remains just 5% away from its all-time high, but market participants are increasingly divided. Some analysts expect a strong breakout above the $110K resistance zone, potentially launching BTC into a new phase of price discovery. Others warn of a possible retracement below $100K, citing waning momentum and uncertain macroeconomic conditions.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this uncertainty, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/AxelAdlerJr\/status\/1938132569687531579\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">on-chain data<\/a> from top analyst Axel Adler suggests that Bitcoin\u2019s long-term trend remains intact. Adler highlights a recurring pattern seen in each major rally during this cycle: sustained accumulation by long-term holders (LTH) before sharp price increases. The first notable instance came around the $28K mark, when LTH accumulation over 1\u20132 months helped fuel the breakout to $60K. A similar phase occurred at $60K, powering BTC\u2019s run to $100K.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-514416 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/btc_ff1762.jpeg?resize=980%2C551\" alt=\"Bitcoin Long\/Short-Term Holder Supply Ratio | Source: Axel Adler on X\" width=\"980\" height=\"551\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/btc_ff1762.jpeg?w=1200 1200w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/btc_ff1762.jpeg?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/btc_ff1762.jpeg?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/btc_ff1762.jpeg?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/btc_ff1762.jpeg?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/btc_ff1762.jpeg?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\"><\/p>\n<p>Now, Bitcoin is once again showing a growing LTH\/STH ratio near the $100K level. Adler believes this phase of accumulation may last another 4\u20138 weeks before a potential breakout. If the past is any indication, a conservative price projection using a 1.6x multiplier puts the next rally target at approximately $160,000.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Approaches Critical Resistance Near $109K<\/h2>\n<p>The chart shows Bitcoin trading at $107,355, pushing firmly into the resistance range between $103,600 and $109,300. After recovering from a brief drop below $100K earlier this month, BTC has climbed steadily and is now less than 2% from the cycle\u2019s key resistance at $109,300. This zone has rejected price several times since March, making a breakout here crucial for confirming entry into price discovery.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-514433 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTCUSD_2025-06-26_06-33-46.png?resize=980%2C570\" alt=\"BTC testing key resistance | Source: BTCUSDT chart on TradingView\" width=\"980\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTCUSD_2025-06-26_06-33-46.png?w=2368 2368w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTCUSD_2025-06-26_06-33-46.png?w=640 640w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTCUSD_2025-06-26_06-33-46.png?w=768 768w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTCUSD_2025-06-26_06-33-46.png?w=980 980w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTCUSD_2025-06-26_06-33-46.png?w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTCUSD_2025-06-26_06-33-46.png?w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTCUSD_2025-06-26_06-33-46.png?w=750 750w, https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/BTCUSD_2025-06-26_06-33-46.png?w=1140 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\"><\/p>\n<p>Volume has picked up slightly during the latest move, indicating buyer interest. However, the lack of a volume spike still suggests caution among market participants. The 50-day and 100-day SMAs remain upward-sloping and well below current price levels, confirming bullish structure and providing strong dynamic support at $94,898 and $88,470, respectively. The 200-day SMA trails at $72,375, reinforcing the longer-term uptrend.<\/p>\n<p>If bulls manage to break and hold above $109,300, it could trigger a sharp move upward, fueled by short liquidations and renewed bullish momentum. However, another rejection could signal continued consolidation between the key support at $103,600 and resistance above. This price action reflects the broader indecision in the market, as traders await a clear directional signal amid macroeconomic and geopolitical volatility.<\/p>\n<p>Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin is once again testing a critical resistance level after surging over 9% since Sunday, fueled by a shift in market sentiment and easing geopolitical tensions.
