- Critical buy zones for Bitcoin are worth looking at right now
- Bitcoin whales have accumulated 358,000 BTC in July, marking an “unprecedented” transfer of wealth
Bitcoin (BTC) has experienced considerable price fluctuations recently, dropping from around $67,000 to below $65,000 within just 24 hours. This volatility has caught the attention of traders and analysts alike.
In fact, Zen, a popular crypto trader and analyst, noted on X that Bitcoin’s decline mirrored movements in the stock market. He claimed,
“$BTC followed stock market and dumped. Nearest zone of interest 64.5-65k I mentioned before was skipped in one 1H candle – that is why I wrote that it is not good for blind limit orders and requires monitoring at lower timeframes.”
He emphasized the need for caution and close monitoring of price movements to avoid premature buy orders.
Zen further identified critical price zones, stating that the first solid buy zone is around $61.4K to $61.8K, with a lower zone potentially covering the CME gap around $58.5K to $60.5K.

He stated that over the past month, 358,000 BTC has been moved to permanent holder addresses. July alone saw global spot ETF inflows of 53,000 BTC.

Impact of potential political developments
The upcoming Bitcoin 2024 conference has generated excitement, particularly due to the involvement of 2024 presidential candidate Donald Trump.
Trump has been vocal about his support for Bitcoin, proposing the addition of BTC as a dollar reserve. This ambitious plan aims to establish Bitcoin as digital gold. The potential influence of Trump’s presidency on Bitcoin’s price is a topic of considerable interest among crypto enthusiasts.
