Bitcoin has once again attempted to consolidate above the $110,000 level and, at the time of writing, is trading at $111,400. If it breaks above this range, we will likely see a swift return to $116,000. However, throughout the week, bitcoin has been quickly sold off on every rally. We'll soon find out if that pattern continues this time.
Meanwhile, Bitwise published a report suggesting that if just 4–5% of the capital currently invested in gold were reallocated to BTC, the price could at least double from its current level of $110,000. Many optimists point to growing institutional interest in cryptocurrencies, especially bitcoin, as a new asset class. They argue that bitcoin, with its limited supply and decentralized nature, presents an attractive alternative to traditional investments, particularly amid rising inflation and political uncertainty. In their view, the shift of capital from gold to bitcoin is a matter of time.
Skeptics, on the other hand, warn against excessive optimism, pointing to bitcoin's high volatility and regulatory risks. They argue that gold, as a time-tested safe-haven asset, will retain investor appeal—especially in periods of economic instability, which we are currently witnessing. Additionally, shifting such large volumes of capital from gold into bitcoin would be challenging given the scale of the gold market and the conservative nature of many investors.
As for the intraday strategy in the cryptocurrency market, I will continue to act on major pullbacks in bitcoin and ether, expecting the medium-term bull market to continue.
Regarding short-term trading, the strategy and conditions are outlined below.
