Bitcoin Price Floor Rising as Sellers Vanish Below $60K
Bitcoin's recent dip below $60,000 was short-lived, lasting only about 72 hours, according to Joe Carlasare, a commercial litigator and Bitcoin advocate. He believes this brief window indicates that sellers have largely disappeared from the market at lower price levels.
The speed of the rebound suggests that there is a shrinking pool of sellers willing to part with coins at depressed prices, leaving mostly long-term holders unwilling to sell at any price near the recent lows.
Carlasare argues that this dynamic is pushing Bitcoin's effective price floor progressively higher, and predicts that investors will find it increasingly difficult to sell below $100,000 in a coming stretch. Once this psychological level becomes firmly established as a floor, every multiple above it, including $200,000, $300,000, $400,000, and $500,000, may start to look comparatively cheap by extension.
Carlasare attributes the muted pullback to Bitcoin never becoming 'unreasonably stretched' during the recent run-up. Using a rubber band analogy, he explains that markets which avoid extreme overextension tend to snap back with less force on the way down.
