Crypto Price Prediction: Market Sell-off Eased as BTC Rebound at $65K
Crypto Price Prediction: On Wednesday, the cryptocurrency market witnessed an ease in supply pressure following a modest uptick in Bitcoin and Ethereum. The new relief rally across top altcoin was initiated with a positive inflow into spot BTC ETFs on April 2nd. The on-chain data tracker reported a $39M net inflow into Bitcoin, suggesting a bullish shift in investor sentiment. Furthermore, Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) saw its lowest outflow in 14 days at $81.9M.
The most awaited crypto event of the year–Bitcoin Halving is just around the corner, scheduled for April 19th. Thus, the current volatility in the market is likely a pre-halving consolidation/correction which removes weak hands in the market or stabilizes the asset before a directional move.
Thus, with the broader market bullish, the current correction may offer suitable dip opportunities in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Litecoin (LTC), and Dogwifhat (WIF).

Bitcoin (BTC)| Tradingview
Bitcoin stands as the original cryptocurrency, a decentralized digital currency without a central bank or single administrator, that can be sent from user to user on the peer-to-peer Bitcoin network.
Over the last two months, the largest digital asset by market cap has witnessed an aggressive recovery displayed through a steep ascending trendline in a daily chart. This rally propelled the digital asset to a new high of $73800 on March 14th.
However, the over-extended rally witnessed a minor setback recently, plunging the coin 10.67% to trade at $35952. The current market cap of Bitcoin stands at $1.3 Trillion, while the trading volume wavers at $44.3 Billion.
Amid the current correction, the Bitcoin price breaks below the aforementioned trendline, indicating the potential for further downfall. If the breakdown is sustained, the sellers drive the asset to $60800, followed by $52850.
2) Litecoin (LTC)

Litecoin, often referred to as the silver to Bitcoin’s gold, is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency. The project stands out due to its faster transaction confirmation times and improved storage efficiency compared to Bitcoin.
Amid the current market correction, the Litecoin price is struggling to sustain above the $112 barrier. The 4-hour chart displaying three notable swing highs indicates sellers are actively defending the overhead resistance.
By the press time, the Litecoin price traded at $99.87 with an intraday loss of 6.5%. The market cap is currently wavering at $7.43 Billion which holds the assets position among the top 20 largest cryptocurrencies as per CoinMarketCap.
If the supply pressure persists, the LTC price could breach a two-week-long support trendline, accelerating the momentum for a prolonged downfall. The post-breakdown fall could retest the support region at $93.1, followed by $77.

Takeaway
The cryptocurrency market initiated in quarter two of 2024 on a bearish note, sparking a fresh correction wave of the majority of coins. However, with less than 20 days of Bitcoin halving the digital assets are witnessing heightened volatility and lack of dominance from buyers or sellers. The sidelined traders may consider this an opportune moment to engage by adopting strategies that capitalize on pullbacks.
