Bitcoin enters Thursday's US producer inflation report at an awkward point on the daily chart, sitting just above its strongest nearby support while a heavy resistance cluster waits roughly $3,500 higher.

Bitcoin is still holding the support cluster that has kept its late-June recovery alive, but buyers have yet to clear the $65,000 resistance overhead convincingly.

Bitcoin has spent more than two months largely between $58,000 and $67,000, trading around $64,000 at the time of writing. The price has been relatively quiet, but the distribution of coins between large and small holders has started to shift.

Bitcoin has returned to the resistance area that has blocked several recovery attempts since mid-July. The next reaction could show whether the rebound is developing into a broader recovery or merely retesting the top of its recent range.

Bitcoin trades near $62,700 at the time of writing after buyers failed to recover the resistance formed by the 50-day simple moving average near $63,280 and the 0.236 Fibonacci retracement around $63,600.

Bitcoin has moved back above an important daily resistance level, placing the next Fibonacci barrier near $67,000 within reach.

Bitcoin broke down from its two-week rising channel on July 13, falling 1.4% to $62,860 while US forces struck Iran over the weekend, and the rejection at the 50-day moving average arrived before the Strategy disclosure and CPI print the market was supposedly waiting for.

Bitcoin trades near $64,200 on July 12, pressing into the confluence of horizontal resistance and the 50-day moving average, while Michael Saylor's cryptic “orange dots” post set off dueling interpretations over whether Strategy is about to buy again or quietly telling the market something else.

It looks like Bitcoin's problem right now isn't that holders have lost faith. It's that the money needed to push price higher has drained out of the system.

Bitcoin climbed back above $63,000 on July 4, extending a recovery that has the third quarter up 7.34% after the worst first half since 2022.

Bitcoin posts its worst week of 2026 as institutional outflows, mass liquidations and capital rotation toward AI stocks hit the market simultaneously.

Currently trading around $71,000, Bitcoin is pushing toward a resistance zone that could define the next several months of price action.
