BTC suffered a big correction over the weekend, and the market is starting to recover. However, the 50-day EMA could provide support; even if we break down further, the $60k level is expected to be a strong support, marking the bottom of the current consolidation range, with the top of the range being as high as $74k.

The Federal Reserve's balancing act is complicated by the potential impact on the US debt, as higher inflation could assist the government in repaying debt with cheaper dollars. However, this could come at the cost of average citizens who live paycheck to paycheck and may suffer from increased costs of living. The upcoming April jobs report could exacerbate the situation, creating volatility that BTC will need to navigate.

This market reset suggests a potential end to the prevailing uncertainty and sideways consolidation, with the market poised for a renewed upward trend. ...
