BTC Price Prediction
Third, out-of-the-money data surrounding IntoTheBlock’s price suggests that Bitcoin is unlikely to fall below $27,000.
Currently, the $27,500 resistance cluster of 61,000 addresses holds 13,500 BTC. This area is relatively weaker than the $27,100 support level, where 252,000 addresses bought 389,000 BTC.
To enter a bullish reversal, BTC must break the next resistance zone at $28,350 and sustain above it. However, the 1.98 million holders with nearly 756,000 BTC will present a formidable challenge. But if that resistance level is broken, BTC could rally to highs of $32,000.

However, the positive outlook may be invalidated if BTC falls below $27,000. However, as mentioned above, bullish support from 252,000 addresses buying 389,000 BTC at an average price of $27,100 may prevent this decline.
But if this support fails to hold, Bitcoin price could drop to as low as $24,500 before the bulls regroup.
