Meanwhile, notable crypto trader and analyst CrediBULL Crypto hinted at a potential upward grind despite a momentum stall in his latest X post.
He noted that while Bitcoin’s momentum had stalled overnight, resulting in a three-legged move instead of a clean five-wave impulse, the cryptocurrency could still see an upward trend. However, he cautioned market participants to remain vigilant and consider potential risks when reaching range highs.
