Sathvik Vishwanath, co-founder & CEO, Unocoin said: “Bitcoin is trading near $118,400, consolidating between $116,000 and $120,000 after peaking above $123,000 this month. Despite recent whale sell-offs, strong exchange-traded fund (ETF) inflows and bullish institutional sentiment are keeping the momentum alive. A breakout above $120,000 could trigger a run toward $125,000–$130,000, while a fall below $111,000 may invite deeper corrections. Over 96 per cent of holders remain in profit, supporting confidence, but raising caution for short-term pullbacks. Technicals show a tightening triangle pattern, hinting at a decisive move soon.”
