As we noted when looking at simulation results (the second scenario in this post), a sustained breakout would be significant. It would greatly increase the likelihood of positive returns in the coming months.

Bitcoin Breakout: How Strong Is It?
The Takeaway
Bitcoin's recent breakout above $65,000 is gaining momentum, driven significantly by strong Bitcoin ETF inflows.

Maintaining levels above the 200-day moving average could set the stage for a potential bull market in the coming months.
