Bitcoin (BTC) is facing headwinds as it struggles to sustain itself within the $30,350 range that it attained on Sunday. This failure of laying out a bullish breakout weighs down on the entire crypto market.

Following multiple Bitcoin ETF filings, Bitcoin attempted to stage a fresh uptrend toward $31,000 at the end of June. Notably, on July 14, the Bitcoin price reached $31,657 on July 14. Currently, the largest cryptocurrency failed to test the $30,000 resistance and rather initiated a further downtrend.
