Bitcoin’s Path To $86,000 Taking Shape?
Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez noted Bitcoin testing the lower support of an ascending channel, at around $79,000.
“If this floor holds, BTC could be positioned for a rebound back toward the channel top, which currently sits near $86,000,” the analyst said.
Failing to defend the support, could, however, “trigger a retest of lower support zones.”

Michaël van de Poppe, another prominent cryptocurrency commentator on X, said the number of arguments for Bitcoin’s rally continuation exceed the arguments for its correction.
“The trend is clearly continuing and it’s a matter of time until the markets test the highs and likely break upwards to $90,000,” Van De Poppe said. “That’s the crucial region for me, and I would still expect that area to be tested in May/June.”

The trend is not over. The trend looks to be continuing upwards.
There are no arguments to be expecting a correction to happen, not at all.
