However, with the price now sitting at a key <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Crypto_Scient\/status\/2045229284382720367?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span>resistance<\/span><\/a><span> zone on the logarithmic chart, uncertainty remains.

Following yesterday\u2019s daily close, Scient <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Crypto_Scient\/status\/2045229284382720367?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span>notes<\/span><\/a><span> that we have officially confirmed a breakout from this primary trendline. This shift in market structure has prompted a strategic search for high-potential setups across various altcoins.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Despite the linear <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/bitcoin-near-bigger-breakout-capriole-founder\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span>breakout<\/span><\/a><span>, the question remains whether this move is a genuine trend reversal or a temporary deviation. While the linear chart shows a clear breach of resistance, the log chart tells a different story. Currently, the price is sitting exactly at a major resistance level on the logarithmic scale.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The validity of this move depends heavily on how the price reacts to these overlapping levels in the coming sessions. If this move turns out to be a fakeout, the price will lose momentum quickly. In that case, Bitcoin would likely fall back below the linear resistance.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_892317\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-892317\"><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Scient.jpg?w=512&#038;resize=512%2C268\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"512\" height=\"268\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-892317\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Crypto_Scient\/status\/2045229284382720367?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Chart from Scient on X<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><span>To confirm true strength across both linear and log perspectives, the price needs to push into the mid-$80,000 region. Holding that level for several daily closes would effectively flip the macro structure from <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/bitcoin-coinbase-premium-red-bearish-signal\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span>bearish<\/span><\/a><span> to bullish, turning all subsequent price dips into high-conviction buying opportunities for long-term investors.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The upcoming seven to ten days represent a pivotal window for Bitcoin\u2019s medium-term trajectory and the broader market. This timeframe will determine if the current breakout can overcome the log resistance or if the market requires further consolidation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"ftoc-heading-2\"><strong>Bitcoin Nears $80,000 Target As Momentum Holds Steady<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/cryptocandy24x\/status\/2045350634053149061?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><span>According to<\/span><\/a><span> Crypto Candy, Bitcoin is currently moving in alignment with previous projections, showing strong momentum as it nears the primary target of $80,000. The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/time-to-swap-bitcoin-for-xrp\/\" target=\"_blank\"><span>analyst<\/span><\/a><span> notes that the asset has almost reached this milestone, and if the current buying pressure persists, the price is expected to enter the $80,000 zone shortly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>While the upward trajectory is clear, potential short-term retracements before the final target is hit are likely.

This price point serves as the definitive line in the sand for the current move. With this, the path toward $80,000 remains the most likely scenario for the immediate future.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/NvmYZjnz\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"2084\" height=\"1636\"><figcaption>BTC trading at $76,995 on the 1D chart | Source: BTCUSDT on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/NvmYZjnz\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tradingview.com<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Featured image from Getty Images, chart from Tradingview.com<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin has confirmed a breakout from its macro downtrend on the linear chart, signaling a potential shift in broader market [&hellip;]<\/p>","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":73302,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[220],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-73300","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tien-dien-tu"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73300","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=73300"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/73300\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/73302"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=73300"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=73300"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hbbgroup.net\/vi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=73300"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
