According to NewsBTC, there is a connection resistance trend line formed at $8K on the daily chart of the BTC/USD pair. It is highly likely to trigger a halving rally within the $8,200 resistance level and continue to surge to the $9k and $9,200 level in the medium term. Even major bullish trend lines ($7,200 line) can retreat to $7,200 and even $6k if you give in.

In addition, the media cited data from Glassnode, a cryptocurrency on-chain data platform, saying that Bitcoin is standing at the boundary of a full-scale rally. In the recent BTC market, there is a new wallet address with a balance of '0' or higher. 

Increasingly, the upcoming Bitcoin halving, the global economic crisis caused by Coronavirus pandemic, and the central bank's quantitative easing monetary policy are attracting investors to the BTC market. Bitcoin prices continue to grow, and with the steady influx of individual investors, the cryptocurrency market is preparing to enter a full-fledged upward trend.
