Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe highlights persistent Bitcoin weekend sell-offs, where investors ditch risk before Monday openings. Markets surged Friday, dipped Saturday, and could rebound Sunday into next week's upside for #BTC. He stresses holding the crucial $72K area to fuel more momentum, aligning with historical patterns of Bitcoin weekend sell-off recoveries over the past year.

Zooming into the 4h chart, Bitcoin trades at $76,062.32 in a bullish structure, hugging the EMA50 at $73,977.02 as immediate support while the EMA200 at $71,125.65 anchors longer-term floors. MACD screams bullish with a golden cross at 921.39, but RSI at 57.09 stays neutral, signaling no overheat yet. Price dances inside Bollinger Bands, testing upper resistance at $77,837.03—a break here could ignite fresh highs, though volatility might pull back to lower support at $73,008.6 before resuming the grind, especially if $72,000 holds as that key confluence zone in BTC price prediction amid ongoing crypto market crash fears and hype around assets like TAO.
