On Friday, the price bounced off the overnight lows, but the CIO didn’t think this corrective move lower was done. “I expect that wave (ii) pullback will complete in the $88,000 to $93,000 region before the next leg up. This corrective move should finish in mid-to-late summer, followed by an impulsive wave (iii) higher, so if you’re looking to add, the wave (ii) target is a good level,” Glover argued. He added, however, that wave (i) can be completely retraced by wave (ii), so a retest of the $74,500 low of Wave IV is “not out of the question. But my expectations continue to be for a rally to $133,000-$136,000 into the end of this year/beginning of next.” Source: Ledn Meanwhile, per TradingView , Bitcoin’s exchange review has fallen to a record low of 2.3 million on centralized exchanges. This is the result of institutional buying and an increase in spot ETFs, limiting BTC supply. Dom Harz, the co-founder of Layer-2 BOB , also noted that this is the lowest reserves level since 2018, pointing to growing investor confidence in BTC’s long-term future, including as a strategic asset. “But the question remains, what’s next? Will billions in capital sit idle in treasuries and wallets for years to come? We would suggest this is unlikely. With this scale of investment, it’s only natural that holders, both institutions and individuals, will want to put their Bitcoin to work,” Harz says. “Thankfully, appetite for sustainable BTC yield is on a collision course with technical breakthroughs that will truly unlock secure, scalable Bitcoin DeFi. The next era of finance isn’t theoretical anymore, it’s already taking shape.” Why Is Crypto Down Today: Levels & Events to Watch Next BTC currently trades at $105,660, managing to hold the $105,000 level after several failed attempts last week.
