$BTC Technical Indicators and Market Sentiment

Technical analysis indicates strong upward momentum:

Moving Averages: The 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) is approaching a crossover above the 200-day moving average, a pattern known as the "golden cross," which often indicates an upward trend.

Easing trade tensions between the United States and China: A 90-day trade agreement was reached between the United States and China on May 12, temporarily reducing tariffs on imports, alleviating economic uncertainty and boosting investor confidence.

Analysts anticipate potential short-term targets reaching $116,000, with some expecting a "blow-off top" at $128,000. Long-term forecasts, considering the growth of global money supply (M2), suggest that Bitcoin could reach $132,000 by the end of the year.
