This week witnessed a significant increase in the price of bitcoin, with an increase of over 11% taking it to about $30,000. Santiment, a blockchain analytics company, claims that the growing buildup of stablecoins like USDT, USDC, and BUSD likely contributed to this Bitcoin price spike.

Bulls in Action
Bitcoin’s bulls are working tirelessly to get the crypto above the crucial $30,000 barrier as its amazing upward trend continues. During the week, Bitcoin’s price hit $30,000, but it met stiff pushback from investors at this level. Even so, this is a considerable increase of 11% in the last 7 days. Bitcoin’s momentum might be bolstered even further if the Federal Reserve’s next recommendation on interest rate decision acts as a catalyst.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $29,682, down 0.42% in the last 24 hours as per data from CoinMarketCap. Moreover, the trading volume is down 17.36%. If the price manages to go past $30,000 level, then it will likely climb higher to test $31,480 resistance level. Breaking this level will likely see price going all the way till $42,600 mark.
However, if the price falls below $28,160 support area, then a downward move towards $27,250 is highly likely. Further decline will drive prices to test $26,600 support level.
