Bitcoin must hold $116K support or risk testing $100K liquidity.
Michael Saylor warns investors have 10 years to stack Bitcoin.
Analysts allege BlackRock plotting control through MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin holdings.
Bitcoin is trading in a decisive range with traders watching key support levels. Crypto Patel reported that Bitcoin has broken above a descending resistance and is now retesting support.
The chart highlights $116,000 as the level to hold. He said that staying above this zone could spark a bullish reaction toward a new all-time high. Failure, however, could push price action toward the $100,000 liquidity pool.

Analysts stressed that the outlook is straightforward. Either buyers maintain control by defending support, or capitulation begins if it is lost. Traders are watching closely as Bitcoin consolidates within this pivotal range.

Atkins emphasized the potential scale, saying it is so large “we can’t even calculate them yet.” Analysts responded by noting that backing from a top regulator could accelerate adoption.
Some called it a turning point for institutional acceptance and highlighted its role in strengthening Bitcoin’s position in the economy.
At the same time, Skynet Insights issued a cautionary outlook involving BlackRock’s activity. The analyst claimed BlackRock is preparing the biggest Black Swan event in Bitcoin’s history.
