Bitcoin rose 6% on Friday, moving above $80,000 and reaching a local high of $81,034 on Bitstamp as Wall Street trading began. The move came while renewed concerns about global oil supplies pushed US bond yields higher. Short positions across crypto markets worth about $250 million were liquidated over four hours, amplifying the advance.
The rally reclaimed Bitcoin’s True Market Mean, an aggregate secondary-market cost basis currently estimated at $76,660. However, analysts identified $82,000 as the next key breakout level; failure there could create a double-rejection pattern based on the market’s previous May rebound. Bitcoin’s corporate-treasury cost basis is around $80,500, adding significance to the current price range.
