Bitcoin Slumps as Bulls Struggle to Overcome Key Resistance Zone

Bitcoin's price has been consolidating around $80K after a sharp recovery from the $60K area. The broader structure of Bitcoin's price action has shifted constructively, with the asset reclaiming both major moving averages on its daily chart.

The immediate obstacle for Bitcoin is the $80K-$82K resistance zone, which has repeatedly capped the recent leg up. A decisive daily close above $82K would likely strengthen the bullish case and expose the next major resistance area around $95K.

Conversely, rejection from the current zone could trigger a deeper retracement toward the $72K-$74K area, representing the first major daily support zone. Below that, the $66K region becomes particularly important as the last line of defense before the base of BTC's recent rally.
