Bitcoin has maintained its upward momentum since the week started, signaling renewed interest and optimism in the market. The asset reclaimed the $88,000 price level on Monday and continues to trade above this zone<\/a>, marking a nearly 10% rise in value over the past seven days.<\/p>\n

The steady price recovery comes after weeks of retracement<\/a>, during which Bitcoin experienced considerable selling pressure and fell from previous highs.<\/p>\n

On-Chain Resistance Zones Identified<\/h2>\n

IntoTheBlock, an on-chain analytics platform, provided insights<\/a> on whether Bitcoin could be on track to retest its all-time high. The firm highlighted several key resistance ranges that may impact Bitcoin\u2019s price action in the near term.<\/p>\n

These include the $88,355.91 to $90,920.05, $90,920.05 to $93,591.02, $93,591.02 to $96,262.00, $96,262.00 to $98,932.97, and $98,932.97 to $101,603.95 levels\u2014zones where many addresses are currently holding Bitcoin at a loss.<\/p>\n

Is Bitcoin on its way to test its highs?<\/p>\n

The red bubbles in this chart highlight levels where underwater investors could sell as they break even, especially if uncertainty persists.<\/p>\n

Notably, around the $97.4K level alone, approximately 1.44 million BTC are held by investors in unrealized loss<\/a> positions, which could introduce selling pressure as prices recover.<\/p>\n

Despite the resistance ahead, other on-chain activity shows signs of investor confidence. According to IntoTheBlock, Bitcoin saw<\/a> over $220 million in net outflows from centralized exchanges in the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n

Over the past week, total outflows have exceeded $424 million, often interpreted as a sign of investors moving assets into cold storage rather than preparing to sell.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, crypto analyst Burak Kesmeci noted<\/a> that Bitcoin\u2019s 30-day volatility index has surged to 52.31 points\u2014its highest level in the past six months. The spike in volatility coincides with anticipation around the US Core PCE report expected Friday, a macroeconomic event that could introduce further price swings<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Technical Outlook On Bitcoin<\/h2>\n

From a technical perspective, analysts remain divided. Crypto analyst Ali pointed out<\/a> that Bitcoin is approaching a key resistance zone around $89,000, where the 50-day moving average intersects with a descending trendline drawn from the January all-time high.<\/p>\n

The outcome at this level may influence the direction of the next major move. On the other hand, analyst Javon Marks highlighted<\/a> what he described as a potential breakout pattern forming on Bitcoin\u2019s chart.<\/p>\n

He pointed to a previous breakout that triggered one of the fastest rallies in the current cycle and noted similar technical behavior emerging again. Marks believes that if momentum continues<\/a>, Bitcoin could be positioning itself for another rapid climb toward new record highs.<\/p>\n
