Bitcoin (BTC) and major altcoins jumped after headlines confirmed a ceasefire between the US and Iran ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ.

Despite the initial momentum, BTC struggled once again to break past the $73,000 mark โ€” marking its third failed attempt since the announcement โš ๏ธ๐Ÿ“‰

This $73K zone has consistently acted as a strong resistance level throughout every upward move since tensions with Iran began in late February ๐Ÿ“Š

Even with the rejection, analysts point out that Bitcoinโ€™s pullback has been relatively mild. In fact, BTC just recorded its strongest weekly performance since the conflict started, gaining around 7% over the week ๐Ÿ“ˆ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Experts now believe that a decisive break above $75,000 is crucial for the market to truly enter a bullish phase ๐Ÿš€

In an interview with , FxPro analyst highlighted that the $73K level remains a key barrier for Bitcoin.

According to him, BTC has tested this resistance three times since the ceasefire news, but each breakout attempt quickly lost strength and faded within hours โณ

He emphasized that for Bitcoin โ€” and the broader crypto market โ€” to establish a clear uptrend, the price must push beyond $75,000. Repeated rejections near $73K continue to hold the market back from further gains ๐Ÿšง

Meanwhile, shares a similar outlook. He believes Bitcoin needs to break above $74,000 and maintain that level to build enough momentum toward $80,000 ๐Ÿ’ก

โ€œOnce those levels are cleared, we could see a fresh wave of optimism that reignites the uptrend,โ€ Novogratz explained ๐Ÿ“Šโœจ

Kuptsikevich also analyzed , noting that ETH is showing a similar pattern to Bitcoin.

According to him, Ethereum is currently fluctuating within a consolidation range between $2,000 and $2,400 ๐Ÿ”„

He added that a breakout above this range could be the trigger for Ethereumโ€™s next upward move ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ“ˆ #BTC #ETH
