The probability of dropping below $70k in the short term (a few days to a few weeks) is not low.
1. Current situation (as of the evening of April 12, 2026)
- Current price: approximately $71,500–$73,000
- Position: very close to $70k, a drop would hit it immediately
- Recent trend: from last year's high of $126,000, it has been oscillating in the $62k–$74k range for two months
2. Why it’s very likely to fall below $70k
1. $70k is a key psychological threshold + resistance level
- Multiple rejections around $69,000–$70,000
- Once effectively broken below $70,000, it could trigger:
- Long liquidation, futures margin calls, panic selling
- The next common targets are $66k–$68,000, then $61,500–$63k
2. Macro pressures are still present
- Weak Federal Reserve rate cut expectations, strong US dollar
- Geopolitical tensions, US stock market volatility → cryptocurrencies tend to follow downward
3. Market sentiment is bearish
- Still in a high-level correction / bear market adjustment phase
- Weak rebound, selling pressure as soon as it rises
3. Two scenarios (short-term)
- Scenario A (higher probability): oscillate and then fall again
- Hover around $70,000–$74,000 for a few days
- Fall below $70,000 again, find support at $66,000–$68,000
- Scenario B (lower probability): strong stabilization
- Hold above $70,000, break through $74,000–$75,000 with volume
- Only then could it reverse upward
4. One-sentence conclusion
Short-term (1–2 weeks): very likely to fall below $70,000.
Medium to long-term: depends on whether it can hold support at $63,000–$66,000 and on the Federal Reserve’s policy shift.
