Crypto sentiment highest since early May
elde edilen veriler, Cointelegraph Piyasaları Pro ve TradingView shows that at the time of writing, BTC/USD is up over $2,000 this week — nearly 12%.

Those highs alone are noteworthy, coinciding with Bitcoin’s 200-week moving average (MA), an essential level in bear markets that has acted as resistance since last month.
While consolidating around $1,000 lower, Bitcoin nonetheless is showing the potential for a trend turnaround. Beating out the 200-week MA, however, will be no easy task.
“Well, Bitcoin, $22.3K was reached and all the highs have been taken for now,” Cointelegraph contributor Michaël van de Poppe özet Twitter güncellemesinde.
“Some consolidation and build-up is required (might retest $20.7Kish) before markets are ready to break above 200-Week MA, which will be a heavy one.”
Van de Poppe previously önerilen that there is “probably an insane amount of liquidity above the 200-Week MA,” and that breaking through could see a run as high as $30,000.
“And then the sentiment will flip too,” he added.
Signs of change in the overall market mood were already visible on the day, however, with the Kripto Korku ve Açgözlülük Endeksi hitting its highest levels since May 7. At 20/100, the Index remains in its “extreme fear” zone.
Another day, another two-decade DXY high
The latest price action is meanwhile not without its naysayers, some of whom expect deeper macro lows to enter before any significant recovery.

“Lot of people expecting 22k–23k. It’s the new 52k when price was at 47k–48k or the new 35k when price was at 31k–32k. 16k comes first imo,” popular trader Il Capo of Crypto savundu Temmuz 7.
Later, he noted that Bitcoin was increasing despite renewed strength in the U.S. dollar index (DXY), and that “sızdırma” on major exchanges was adding to the chances of the latest move being a fakeout.
“DXY going parabolic. Bitcoin going up a bit and people getting euphoric and calling for 40k. Not a single bullish sign to support this move up and price is still at 21k–22k (resistance),” he uyardı Twitter takipçileri.
“Rejection will be strong. Altcoins could drop 45%–50%. There will be no mercy.”
DXY stood at 107.3 at the time of writing, marking new twenty-year highs. U.S. dollar strength is traditionally inversely correlated with crypto-asset performance.
