Crypto World: BTC holds $80,000 support, signals calm market with bearish divergence
The host of Crypto World suggests that Bitcoin is putting up a good defense at the $80,000 support level, despite what is clearly bearish divergence on the daily chart. In the days ahead, the author sees no reason for the market to do anything other than stay put, or perhaps make some modest gains.
One will find Bitcoin holding fast to the $80,000 to $82,000 area despite the divergence the charts may show. The expert is of the opinion that without a robust showing from US equities, there is little prospect of a major BTC rally, although some sideways action or a small move to the upside cannot be ruled out. A further slide in the US market and Bitcoin may well give way to sub-$80,000 levels, with $76,000 as the next point of support.
There is ample liquidity to be found on the liquidation heatmap above current prices, notably in the $84,400-$84,600 band, and testing of resistance could prompt short-term activity. As for altcoins, the analyst cautions that should Bitcoin dominance break the 61% resistance line, it would not be a positive sign. All in all, one can expect a cautious outlook with neither a breakout nor a breakdown on the horizon.
The Modern Investor: BTC could hit $1 million by 2030 as institutions accumulate
On The Modern Investor, the host reports that crypto specialists are forecasting Bitcoin to see price gains of a magnitude not previously witnessed by 2030, with some putting a $1 million figure on the table.
The program states that top experts have predicted Bitcoin could hit the $1 million mark by 2030, driven by institutional appetite and accumulation on an unprecedented scale. There is no shortage of major firms and other institutional investors making large purchases of crypto and holding them, a clear sign of their conviction about future price movements.
There is also the matter of Ethereum’s share on exchanges dropping rapidly, which suggests that big players are amassing positions. With tokenized real-world assets set for a boom, Morgan Stanley estimates the market could reach trillions in the decade ahead. If new coin issuance slows, experts warn that a supply shock could trigger panic buying by 2032 and push prices even higher.
Altcoin Daily: potential breakout above $90,000 if 50-week support holds
Michael Saylor put forward a number of bullish arguments for Bitcoin in the run-up to Q4 2026 during his remarks at Purify Capital’s investor day, according to the host of Altcoin Daily.
In the view of the MicroStrategy CEO, there are strong tailwinds in the form of tokenized securities and bank adoption. To make the case for institutional uptake accelerating, Saylor drew attention to the Bitcoin banking index climbing from 9 to 34 percent. He considers it a bullish indicator that $10 billion of credit on Bitcoin is equivalent to a year’s supply.
Technically speaking, the host observes Bitcoin testing its 50-week moving average; should that support hold, one can expect a move past $90,000. Then there is October, which has an average return of 26 percent over 16 years and is traditionally a good month for Bitcoin, not to mention the general sense of optimism. Saylor was not without his caveats, though: he spoke of the AI bubble and any restrictive policies as potential headwinds, and stressed the need for regulatory clarity if growth is to be maintained.
