Bitcoin Consolidates Near $65K as Altcoins Advance Now

Key Moments

Bitcoin Struggles to Extend Recovery Above $65,000

Bitcoin (BTC) is encountering resistance above $65,000 after the Bank of Japan raised interest rates to 1% on Tuesday. While price action has improved, the broader recovery attempt is showing signs of fatigue as other altcoins, notably Uniswap (UNI) and Worldcoin (WLD), attract stronger retail interest.

At press time on Wednesday, BTC is edging higher and moving toward $66,000, continuing the rebound from the $60,000 area. However, the coin is still trading beneath the 50-, 100-, and 200-day Exponential Moving Averages, which are grouped in a band from roughly $70,300 to $78,300 and acting as a technical ceiling.

The prior rising trendline that BTC lost earlier is now serving as resistance around $72,851.77, underscoring a capped price structure. On the daily chart, the Relative Strength Index stands at 42, pointing to subdued but stabilizing downside momentum. At the same time, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator remains in positive territory but is moderating, implying that recent upside attempts have yet to show convincing follow-through.

On the upside, initial resistance is located around the 50-day EMA near $70,345. Above that, the reclaimed trendline near $72,852 and the 100-day EMA at $73,045 form the next hurdles, with the 200-day EMA near $78,333 acting as a broader bearish pivot level.

On the downside, a key horizontal support zone sits around $60,000. A breakdown below this region would likely expose additional weakness and extend the ongoing corrective phase.

Uniswap Extends Seven-Day Rebound and Eyes Trendline Break

Uniswap (UNI) is trading above $3.00 at press time on Wednesday, marking a seventh consecutive day of gains. The latest move coincides with renewed participation from retail traders and Uniswap’s collaboration with Arc to deliver deeper stablecoin liquidity.

The UNI/USDT pair has moved above its 50- and 100-day EMAs and is currently testing a local descending trendline near $3.50, which is shaping a constructive short-term outlook. Momentum indicators support the bullish tone: the RSI is at 70, hovering just under the overbought range, while the MACD line remains above its signal line, reinforcing the presence of buying pressure.

A firm daily close above the trendline near $3.50 would place the 200-day EMA at $4.08 as the next major resistance area. A clear move above this longer-term average would set the stage for a more durable upside phase.

On pullbacks, initial support is seen around the 100-day EMA at $3.37, followed by the 50-day EMA near $3.07, which together mark a broader demand area for potential dip buyers.

Worldcoin Outperformance Continues as Overbought Signals Emerge

Worldcoin (WLD) has been trading higher for the last five sessions, moving closer to the $0.70 level at press time. The token maintains a clearly bullish technical profile, with price holding comfortably above the 50-, 100-, and 200-period EMAs, which are clustered between about $0.38 and $0.46.

The daily RSI reading of 71 indicates overbought conditions that could slow the pace of gains, although it does not necessarily point to an immediate reversal. The positive MACD histogram is still expanding, and the MACD line is pushing further above the zero line, signaling that upside momentum is stretching but remains in force.

On the upside, the October 17 low at $0.82 is the next notable reference point, followed by the $1.00 psychological barrier, which may act as additional resistance.

On the downside, a drop below $0.65 would start to unwind part of the five-day advance and could trigger a move back toward the $0.56 support area, with the $0.50 psychological level positioned below as another potential floor.
