$77,000 Bitcoin, are you going to buy the dip?



Fallen from $126,000, a 38% decline, dropping for a full 7 months. Just when you thought it would break $70,000, it suddenly bounced back from $74,000 to $77,000. US-Iran peace agreement, SpaceX holdings revealed, institutions secretly shifting from ETH/SOL to BTC — but ETFs are still flowing out, the Fed is still raising interest rates, and your long positions feel like dancing on the edge of a knife.

First, look at the surface: a bunch of positive news, but the price is lackluster.

In the past week, it rebounded from a low of $74,300 to $77,200, less than a 4% increase. 24-hour trading volume is flat, with volume increasing during declines and shrinking during rises — a typical “weak rebound.” The $78,000–$80,000 range is like a wall, three times unable to break through. RSI just pulled back from oversold to neutral, MACD shows a golden cross but the bars are weak like noodles.

First thing: geopolitical good news arrived, but funds didn’t follow.

Trump announced that a US-Iran peace agreement is basically reached, oil prices fell, risk appetite increased. This is the strongest catalyst recently — no war premium, Bitcoin took a breather from panic.

But look at the ETF: net outflows of $1.26 billion last week, with over $100 million outflow in a single day. Cumulative inflows still exceed $57 billion.

Second thing: halving effect is still there, but macro conditions are not cooperating.

After the 2024 halving, new coin supply is cut in half, long-term holders’ supply is near historical highs. Theoretically, this is super bullish — less supply, demand unchanged, should rise.

But the reality is: Fed rates at 3.5%-3.75%, three consecutive hold decisions, and the new chair Kevin Warsh’s appointment has cooled expectations of rate cuts. April CPI at 3.8%, core inflation still accelerating.

Third thing: a technical signal has appeared that must be watched carefully.

$74,000 is a short-term bottom, holding the line. But rallying to $77,000, volume didn’t increase, and the bullish candles are all small bodies with upper shadows. Bulls are testing, but no one dares to push hard.

On one side:

- US-Iran peace, risk appetite rising

- Halving effect + long-term holders’ reluctance to sell

- SpaceX, institutions shifting from altcoins to BTC

- Policy bills advancing, environmentally friendly

On the other side:

- ETF outflows continue, institutions cautious

- High interest rates + sticky inflation, macro pressure

- Weak technical rebound, volume-price divergence

- Three failed attempts to break $80,000–$81,000

Key level: $77,000, a $3,000 move up is a wall, a $3,000 move down is a bottom.

Resistance above: $78,000 → $80,000 (psychological + high volume) → $83,000+

Support below: $75,000 (short-term) → $73,000–$74,000 (strong support) → $70,000–$72,000 (100-day moving average, ultimate defense line)

Short-term traders:

Wait for a pullback to $74,000–$75,000 before entering, stop loss at $73,000, first target $78,000, second target $80,000.

Swing traders:

Wait for the daily close above $80,000 before entering, target $90,000–$100,000. Until then, hold your hands.

Long-term believers:

Invest blindly at $73,000–$75,000. Bitcoin has fallen 38% from $126,000; historically, every 30-40% drop is a golden opportunity. Target in late 2026: $90,000–$100,000, betting on ETF fund inflows + restart of rate cut cycle.

Bitcoin now is like yourself in 2022 —

Fell to a point where everyone was shouting “This time is different,” and the bottom was right in front of your eyes.

You ask me if $77,000 is a good buy? Yes. But don’t go all-in, don’t leverage, don’t expect it to rise tomorrow. Patience is the rarest quality in this market, and the only weapon that costs nothing. #TradFi交易分享挑战 #PlatinumCard作者专属 $BTC $ETH $SOL
