Analysts have highlighted several key resistance levels that must be reclaimed before bulls can regain full control.<\/p>\n<h2>More Gains Ahead?<\/h2>\n<p>The impressive revival comes on the back of Donald Trump\u2019s recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2026\/03\/13\/trump-iran-surrender-hormuz-oil\">remarks<\/a> that Iran is \u201cabout to surrender\u201d as well as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/live\/c4gqjyk0vx3t\">reports<\/a> that the newly elected leader of the Asian country, Mojtaba Khamenei (who is the son of the late Ali Khamenei), is \u201clikely disfigured.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>BTC\u2019s pump has caught the attention of multiple market observers, and some expect the rally to go on in the short term. X user Ted <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TedPillows\/status\/2032384220685914457\">noted<\/a> that Coinbase Premium is rising, indicating solid spot demand. He believes that holding above the $70,000 zone could lead to further gains of around $76,000.<\/p>\n<p>The analyst who goes by the moniker Ardi on X <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ArdiNSC\/status\/2032440521512415237\">claimed<\/a> that the leading digital asset needs to flip the $74,000 resistance into support to actually \u201cstart looking macro bullish again.\u201d If it could achieve that, the valuation might surge to $85,000, he added. At the same time, he warned that anything below that mark is \u201cjust price setting a macro lower high in a downtrend.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Certain indicators suggest the asset could continue marching north. Data from SoSoValue show that over the past few days, inflows into spot BTC ETFs have outpaced outflows. This is a clear bullish factor that displays that institutional investors, such as pension funds, hedge funds, and asset managers, have been increasing their exposure to cryptocurrency. As inflows rise, ETF issuers are required to purchase additional BTC to back the new shares, creating buying pressure that can further support the price.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1431379\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1431379\" style=\"width: 1791px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1431379 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs.png\" alt=\"Spot BTC ETFs\" width=\"1791\" height=\"471\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs.png 1791w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-300x79.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-1024x269.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-768x202.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-1536x404.png 1536w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-90x24.png 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-150x39.png 150w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-1600x421.png 1600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-1400x368.png 1400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-1200x316.png 1200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-1000x263.png 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-900x237.png 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-800x210.png 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-700x184.png 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-600x158.png 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-500x131.png 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-400x105.png 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-200x53.png 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Spot-BTC-ETFs-100x26.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1791px) 100vw, 1791px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1431379\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Spot BTC ETFs, Source: SoSoValue<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Next on the list is the gradually declining amount of coins sitting on crypto exchanges.

The technical analysis tool measures the speed and magnitude of recent price changes to give traders an idea about possible reversal points. It ranges from 0 to 100, and readings above 70 signal that the asset is overbought and gearing up for a decline. As of press time, the RSI stands at 81.<\/p>\n<p>BTC\u2019s Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) is also worth analyzing. It compares the current value of all coins to the price at which people originally paid to acquire their holdings. Over the past months, the ratio has been decreasing, reaching around 1.3 today. According to CryptoQuant, readings below 1 typically signal a bottom, implying that the bear market may not have fully unfolded yet.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1431388\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1431388\" style=\"width: 1525px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1431388 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV.png\" alt=\"BTC MVRV\" width=\"1525\" height=\"755\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV.png 1525w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-300x149.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-1024x507.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-768x380.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-90x45.png 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-150x74.png 150w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-1400x693.png 1400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-1200x594.png 1200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-1000x495.png 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-900x446.png 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-800x396.png 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-700x347.png 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-600x297.png 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-500x248.png 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-400x198.png 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-200x99.png 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/BTC-MVRV-100x50.png 100w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1525px) 100vw, 1525px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1431388\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTC MVRV, Source: CryptoQuant<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Earlier this week, numerous analysts <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/is-the-71k-pump-a-bull-trap-why-analysts-are-calling-for-a-50k-bitcoin-crash\/\">warned<\/a> that BTC\u2019s price could drop to $50,000, and possibly lower, later this year.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-btc-halted-at-74k-analysts-speculate-where-the-price-could-go-next\/\">Bitcoin (BTC) Halted at $74K: Analysts Speculate Where the Price Could Go Next<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The primary cryptocurrency registered a renewed uptick over the past hours, with its price soaring past $74,000 before it faced an immediate rejection.
