Bitcoin (BTC) hit $29,000 on June 21 as large scale buying fueled a fresh sentiment boost.
Analyst: $29,000 becoming fakeout “very unlikely”
Data showed BTC/USD reaching $29,014 on Bitstamp — its highest since May 7.
The pair enjoyed continued buyer interest overnight, following multiple announcements concerning new Bitcoin-focused institutional investment products.
This is not a short squeeze, but someone(s) is just buying $BTC a lot.
I repeat.

For analysts who were previously concerned about overall market strength, the latest action was cause for a modest rethink.
“Fantastic BTC breakout beyond the multi-month downtrend,” popular trader and analyst Rekt Capital reacted.
“Very unlikely this will end up as an upside wick like in previous months.”
The day prior, with upside already in motion, Rekt Capital had cautioned that the weekly candle close was necessary to confirm a substantial trend change.
“A BTC Weekly Candle Close beyond the multi-month downtrend would be a great breakout confirmation. That said, a $BTC dip into the downtrend for a successful retest would offer full confirmation of breakout,” he now added.
“The retest area is ~$26800.”
Fellow trader Crypto Tony meanwhile continued that Bitcoin could hit his upside target “earlier than anticipated.“
“As i said, if we did not lose the support zone on Bitcoin at $25,000, then there is no bearish control just yet,” he reasoned.
“Soon as we saw the bulls step in, that was our cue to long. Plan and Execute.”
Others were more conservative, with both Daan Crypto Trades and Michaël van de Poppe, founder and CEO of trading firm Eight, revealing closed long positions at the $29,000 mark.
Van de Poppe nonetheless stated that BTC/USD was now on its way to $38,000 or higher.
Short-term holder support proves itself
Regarding support levels, on-chain analytics firm Glassnode took the opportunity to underscore the significance of the short-term holder (STH) cost basis.
At $26,400, the STH cost basis was now a formidable line in the sand, with BTC/USD rebounding strongly after placing STHs in unrealized loss territory.
“26,550 remains a significant baseline in determining market trend,” Glassnode tweeted, referring to previous research covered by Cointelegraph.
“The recent deviation below the STH-CB was not decisive, culminating in a reclamation of the prevailing uptrend.”
The 200-week moving average (MA), another key bear market support line, also sits near the mid-$26,000 zone.
