According to crypto analyst Ali Martinez, Bitcoin unusually high level of engagement on the Bitcoin blockchain.<\/p>\n<p>The accompanying Glassnode chart reveals how steep this surge has been, building on a gradual climb that started in the last week of April. Interestingly, the spike in Bitcoin activity coincides with its recent reclaim of the $95,000 price range.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-743920\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/a_fc3057.png?resize=1024%2C604\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"604\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ali_charts\/status\/1918701082102133036\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><i>Image From X: @ali_charts<\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Adding to the bullish case, crypto analyst TehThomas continuation toward $100,000. Interpretation of the BTCUSDT 4-hour timeframe shows an almost identical structure to the one seen in mid-April.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Back then, Bitcoin consolidated near $86,000, broke out, left behind a fair value gap (FVG), retested the gap, and rallied nearly $10,000. <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/will-bitcoin-repeat-breakout-pattern-surge-104000\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">A mirror image of this pattern <\/a>is currently unfolding. The Bitcoin price compressed below $95,000, broke through resistance, and created a fresh FVG between $94,200 and $95,000.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/KryXOSKE\/\" width=\"1835\" height=\"883\" \/><\/p>\n<p>TehThomas noted that the key is not to chase the breakout but to wait for a clean retest of the new FVG. If buyers defend that area as they did earlier this month, the road to $100,000 is structurally intact. However, even though the structure currently favors the bulls, the situation could turn bearish if Bitcoin drops back into the old range below $94,000.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-743919\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/b_5773fa.png?resize=1024%2C426\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"426\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>Bearish Golden Pocket Setup Highlights Risk Ahead<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-difficulty-finally-cooldown-almost-5-drop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Not all analysts are convinced<\/a> that Bitcoin will reach $100,000 again without a shakeout first. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/chart\/BTCUSDT.P\/zdWjkZen-BTC-Golden-Pocket-Strong-FVG-Resistance-for-a-Short-Setup\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">A counterview on<\/a> the TradingView platform highlights a possible short-term bearish setup based on the BTCUSDT 15-minute chart.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to the analyst, the current upward retracement appears corrective rather than impulsive, forming a classic short setup within a strong fair value gap resistance zone. Technical analysis shows that Bitcoin has retraced into a region that aligns with a bearish fair value gap and the golden pocket zone defined by the 0.618 to 0.65 Fibonacci levels.<\/p>\n<p>As it stands, the fair value gap is sitting between $97,000 and $97,450.
