Market Outlook: Bitcoin has plunged to $55,500 amid US political uncertainties, German government BTC sell-offs, and fallout from the Mt. Gox collapse, triggering a near 8% price correction since yesterday. The market faces pressure from potential changes in the U.S. presidential race and government disposals of seized Bitcoin. The sell-off is exacerbated by Bitcoin miners selling tokens post-halving, increasing market supply. Despite these challenges, Glassnode maintains a $110,000 Bitcoin price target, citing the need for Bitcoin to break through crucial resistance levels at $64,000 and $70,000. Meanwhile, analysts suggest $52,000 as a pivotal support level, below which a deeper market correction could occur. The Federal Reserve's hesitance to cut rates without clear signs of inflation stabilizing has also influenced market movements, with the upcoming non-farm payroll data anticipated to provide further direction. Should the data indicate a weakening job market, it might temper the current sell-off, offering some support to Bitcoin's price.
Market Story: The anticipated sell-off resulting from Mt. Gox's bankruptcy redemptions is likely to impact Bitcoin Cash (BCH) more severely than Bitcoin (BTC), according to a report from Presto Labs. The defunct exchange plans to distribute 143,000 BCH, valued at approximately $73 million, to its creditors, representing a significant 24% of Bitcoin Cash’s daily trading volume. In contrast, the sell-off will affect only 6% of Bitcoin's daily trading volume. Peter Chung of Presto Labs suggests that the selling pressure for BCH will be considerably higher due to its lower market liquidity compared to BTC. He also noted that many creditors might treat their returned BCH like an unexpected windfall and sell it immediately, potentially exacerbating the price impact. This viewpoint supports the notion that Bitcoin, with a more robust and liquid market, will face less selling pressure from the Mt. Gox distributions.

Market Outlook:
Bitcoin has been experiencing increased accumulation activity, with significant inflows to accumulation addresses and a decrease in deposits to exchanges, suggesting strong holding sentiment among investors. This trend has been bolstered by recent short liquidations, further propelling upward momentum. Additionally, technical analysis indicates Bitcoin is on the verge of breaking key resistance levels around $69,330, which could lead to a surge towards $74,400. The approval of Ethereum ETFs and the positive market sentiment around major cryptos also contribute to this optimistic outlook. However, investors should remain cautious of potential pullbacks, typical in volatile markets.

Global News:
The SEC is expected to finalize approvals for Ethereum (ETH) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) this summer, as announced by SEC Chair Gary Gensler during a Senate budget hearing. Gensler mentioned that the registration process for these ETFs is progressing smoothly after initial approvals, with final filings being handled by staff. This will allow the listing of ETFs that hold actual ether, similar to the earlier approval of bitcoin spot ETFs following a court ruling against the SEC's initial resistance. While Gensler refrained from categorizing ETH as a commodity, CFTC Chief Rostin Behnam confirmed it as such, highlighting regulatory jurisdiction issues between the SEC and CFTC. Behnam also noted the CFTC's lack of traditional regulatory tools for effective oversight of crypto markets and emphasized the need for a larger budget if given more responsibility.

Market Outlook:
Bitcoin's price has experienced a minor correction over the last 24 hours, currently fluctuating around the $70,500 range, reflecting a slight decrease of about 1%. While Bitcoin attempted to break through the $72,000 resistance level yesterday following the European Central Bank's rate cut, the momentum was not sustained by the market's optimism, indicative of a lack of buying pressure to push the price higher. However, the price also didn't fall significantly below the $70,000 support level, suggesting that buying interest remains at that range. The coming days will be crucial to see if Bitcoin can muster another attempt at the resistance or if a more sustained correction unfolds; the direction will likely be catalyzed by the outcome of the U.S. Federal Open Market Committee meeting happening next week.

Global News:
The Bitcoin mining industry is witnessing a potential wave of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) fueled by recent takeover bids and analyst predictions. Analysts at B. Riley and JPMorgan believe undervalued stocks and the attractiveness of miners with favorable power contracts will drive consolidation. This trend could even see companies outside mining, like those in AI or cloud computing, enter the fray as acquirers seeking alternative power sources. The recent Bitcoin halving, reducing mining rewards, is expected to further incentivize consolidation as weaker firms potentially exit through acquisition. With larger miners like Riot and Marathon Digital well-positioned, this could be a period of significant restructuring within the Bitcoin mining space.
