Resolution Criteria
This market resolves to YES if the price of Bitcoin (BTC) reaches or exceeds $95,000 USD on any major cryptocurrency exchange before 11:59 PM UTC on April 30, 2024. Otherwise, it resolves to NO.
Background
Bitcoin has been experiencing significant price movements in 2024. After reaching its previous all-time high of approximately $69,000 in November 2021, Bitcoin surpassed this milestone in March 2024. As of early April 2024, Bitcoin's price is around $87,460.
Key factors potentially influencing Bitcoin's price in April include:
Increased institutional adoption and investment
Recent approval and launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the US
The Bitcoin halving event expected in April 2024
Macroeconomic conditions and Federal Reserve policies
Whale activity showing potential for continued bullish momentum
Considerations
For Bitcoin to reach $95,000, it would need to increase approximately 9% from its current price level. Technical analysts have identified $95,200 as a significant resistance level that Bitcoin would need to break through. The cryptocurrency's 50-day moving average is around $89,805, while the 200-day moving average is approximately $84,538, providing key support levels.
