As the cryptocurrency market slows down its climb over the past few weeks, which has seen Bitcoin’s price breach the psychological level of $28,000 — the flagship cryptocurrency is painting more bullishness in the future as it breaks its macro downtrend.

Bitcoin’s Price Breaks Downtrend

According to a prominent crypto analyst, who goes by the pseudonym Rekt Capital on Twitter, published a study on Bitcoin’s price which entails a brewing upward rally for the world’s first cryptographic asset. At the moment, Bitcoin (BTC) has been seen to break past its downtrend, although it is yet unknown whether or not this can be maintained until the end of the month.

With the Federal Reserve’s rate hike decision just around the corner, many anticipate volatile price swings across market sectors. On the other hand, based on the positive unemployment claims report and the fact that the banking crisis has been avoided for the time being, experts believe that a 25bps rate hike is more likely to occur.
