$BTC is currently trading around the 70,000 area. It is not cheap, but it is also not in an euphoric phase. To me, this price range feels like a pause. The kind where the market is thinking rather than reacting.
I have seen this pattern before. When Bitcoin was far below 100,000, many people said it would never get there. When it finally did, the conversation changed almost instantly. What used to feel impossible suddenly become normal.
Because of that, I no longer ask whether Bitcoin can reach 100,000 again. It already has. The more important question for me is whether the market is ready to hold its belief long enough for that level to matter again.
I also pay less attention to short term price moves now. What matters more is how people behave when nothing exciting is happening. When there is no hype, no panic, and no constant noise, Bitcoin often starts building strength quietly. Those periods usually do not feel exciting, but they tend to matter the most in hindsight.
From where we are today, 100,000 does not feel extreme. It feels psychological. It is a number that carries emotional rather than technical meaning. Once a level like that has already been traded, it stays in the market's memory. Whether it is reached again quickly or slowly depends on conditions, not wishful thinking.
I do not know when Bitcoin will reach 100,000 again, and I am comfortable with that uncertainty. What I do know is that Bitcoin has already shown what it is capable of. From here, it is less about predictions and more about patience.
So the real question might be this. Does the current 70,000 range feel like a ceiling, or does it feel like the market taking a breath before deciding what comes next?
