Odaily News: CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler Jr. stated that BTC has reclaimed the short-term holder cost basis of $68,200 during this rebound, while also breaking above the SMA111 at approximately $67,500 and the SMA200 at $69,000 on rising volume, bringing recent BTC buyers back into profit.
However, he noted that the overall moving average structure remains bearish, with both SMA111 and SMA200 sitting below the SMA365 (around $83,200), meaning a larger-scale trend reversal has yet to be confirmed. Going forward, the key support zone to watch is the $68,000 to $69,000 area, while the $83,200 level serves as resistance above; only if BTC can break through and hold above the SMA365 could it serve as a significant confirmation signal of a trend shift.

Historical data shows that synchronized growth in spot and futures demand is typically accompanied by strong upward trends. As long as current demand remains sustainable and absorbs short-term profit-taking orders, upward momentum may persist even as the market enters overbought territory.
