Must read

As CyrptoPotato reported earlier, the $60K mark is very important from a technical perspective. Moreover, at the time of this writing, the cryptocurrency is pushing toward $61K, approaching the decisive 200-day moving average, which is located around $63K.

If the price manages to push above it, this would send positive signals across the market and renew hopes of an extended rally.

Meanwhile, the sudden move has also caused a spike in liquidations, with over $100 million worth of derivatives positions being wiped out in the past 24 hours.
