Bitcoin Rally Stalls at 200-Day Moving Average as Market Sentiment Turns Extremely Bearish
Bitcoin's recent rebound has been capped by its 200-day moving average, with CryptoQuant saying its price structure resembles the 2022 bear market. As spot buying weakens and institutional capital retreats, crypto market sentiment has turned extremely bearish. Investors are now watching whether the long-term trend can stabilize.
CryptoQuant's latest report said Bitcoin came under renewed pressure after failing to break above its 200-day moving average, signaling insufficient rebound momentum. Analysts warned that $70,000 is the key support level for maintaining bullish confidence. A decisive break below it could cause the price to follow the 2022 bear market's downward pattern more closely.

The history behind this eventBitcoin Closely Tracks 2022 Bear Market as Analyst Warns 50-Month Support Could Fail
Bitcoin initially rebounded from its 50-month exponential moving average (EMA) during the 2022 bear market before breaking below the long-term support level. The moving average has therefore become an important dividing line for gauging whether the bear market is deepening. Analyst Rekt Capital believes the 2026 price structure is following almost the same pattern. If Bitcoin first forms a lower high and then loses the level on a retest, the broader downtrend could continue.
TradingView data showed Bitcoin fell to $65,362 on Bitstamp on June 3, its lowest level since early April. Rekt Capital put the 50-month EMA at $66,628. Trader Leviathan identified $60,000 as a critical line of defense, while Killa said Bitcoin could consolidate between $63,000 and $65,000 in the coming weeks, with a break below that range potentially deepening the decline.
