Bitcoin hasn't breached its ETF cost basis yet, pegged at around $81K, where short-term holder cost basis converges neatly with the true market mean, according to analyst André Dragosch. This level draws from historical inflows tracked since early 2025, echoing patterns in BTC price prediction models that factor ETF dynamics and on-chain metrics like BIP84 derivations. Traders eye this confluence amid volatile swings, blending Bitcoin on-chain analytics with broader crypto market trends, including hype around projects like TAO in decentralized AI.

Zooming into the 4h chart, Bitcoin trades at $73,928.67 within a bullish structure, hugging the EMA50 at $72,006.25 as immediate support while the EMA200 at $70,022.95 anchors longer-term floors. Momentum builds with MACD flashing a golden cross at 770.65, yet RSI at 58.13 stays neutral, signaling room for upside before overbought territory. Price dances inside Bollinger Bands, testing upper resistance at $76,073.01—a volatility exhaustion point that could trigger pullbacks to the lower support of $69,463.02 if buyers pause, setting up confluence for a retest of that $81K barrier in the ongoing rally.
