Bitcoin has begun showing early signs of recovery following a recent correction that saw the asset fall to $74,000 earlier this month. At the time of writing, Bitcoin trades above $82,000, inching closer to the $85,000 range with its market capitalization now sitting above $1.6 trillion.
A recent market report from CryptoQuant outlines several contributing factors to this rebound. According to the firm, crypto price volatility remained high throughout the week, fueled by trade tensions and macroeconomic developments.
Prices dipped sharply earlier in the week after retaliatory tariffs were introduced by China and the European Union. However, they began recovering on April 9 following the tariff suspension. The temporary policy reduced tariffs to 10% for most countries, while China remained subject to a 125% rate.
Bitcoin Technical Support and Market Sentiment
CryptoQuant’s report also emphasized the importance of Bitcoin’s 365-day moving average (MA), which currently stands at $76,100. This level has previously served as a key technical support in historical market cycles, including in August 2024, July 2021, and December 2021.
The recent bounce from this level is being closely monitored as a potential base for a renewed uptrend. A breach below this moving average, however, would increase the likelihood of Bitcoin entering a bearish phase. Despite this positive movement, investor sentiment remains subdued. CryptoQuant noted in the report:
Nevertheless, although market sentiment has improved after the tariff pause, Bitcoin remains in one of its least bullish phases since November 2022, according to CryptoQuant’s Bull Score Index. The Index is now at 10—its lowest reading since that time—signaling continued weak investor sentiment and a low probability of a sustained rally in the near term.
According to the firm, a longer-term rally is unlikely unless the score climbs above 40. Furthermore, with BTC’s price currently on the rise, CryptoQuant mentioned that the asset could find resistance at $84,000 and $96,000—zones historically linked to the Trader Realized Price, which has served as both support and resistance in different market phases.
Altcoin Accumulation Signal Emerges
In a separate commentary, CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost presented data that may indicate favorable conditions for altcoin accumulation. The analyst observed that the 30-day moving average of trading volume for altcoins paired with stablecoins has dropped below its annual average.
This market behavior, according to Darkfost, has previously marked buying zones, with the last occurrence seen in September 2023. The analysis suggests that while Bitcoin’s near-term outlook remains uncertain, altcoins may be entering a phase conducive to dollar-cost averaging (DCA) strategies.
Darkfost cautioned that these windows can last for weeks or months but have historically aligned with the early stages of altcoin market recoveries. If the macroeconomic environment stabilizes and capital flows return, these conditions could lead to broader participation across the crypto sector.

Meet Samuel Edyme, Nickname – HIM-buktu. A web3 content writer, journalist, and aspiring trader, Edyme is as versatile as they come. With a knack for words and a nose for trends, he has penned pieces for numerous industry player, including AMBCrypto, Blockchain.News, and Blockchain Reporter, among others.
Edyme’s foray into the crypto universe is nothing short of cinematic. His journey began not with a triumphant investment, but with a scam. Yes, a Ponzi scheme that used crypto as payment roped him in. Rather than retreating, he emerged wiser and more determined, channeling his experience into over three years of insightful market analysis.
Before becoming the voice of reason in the crypto space, Edyme was the quintessential crypto degen. He aped into anything that promised a quick buck, anything ape-able, learning the ropes the hard way. These hands-on experience through major market events—like the Terra Luna crash, the wave of bankruptcies in crypto firms, the notorious FTX collapse, and even CZ’s arrest—has honed his keen sense of market dynamics.
When he isn’t crafting engaging crypto content, you’ll find Edyme backtesting charts, studying both forex and synthetic indices. His dedication to mastering the art of trading is as relentless as his pursuit of the next big story. Away from his screens, he can be found in the gym, airpods in, working out and listening to his favorite artist, NF. Or maybe he’s catching some Z’s or scrolling through Elon Musk’s very own X platform—(oops, another screen activity, my bad…)
Well, being an introvert, Edyme thrives in the digital realm, preferring online interaction over offline encounters—(don’t judge, that’s just how he is built). His determination is quite unwavering to be honest, and he embodies the philosophy of continuous improvement, or “kaizen,” striving to be 1% better every day. His mantras, “God knows best” and “Everything is still on track,” reflect his resilient outlook and how he lives his life.
In a nutshell, Samuel Edyme was born efficient, driven by ambition, and perhaps a touch fierce. He’s neither artistic nor unrealistic, and certainly not chauvinistic. Think of him as Bruce Willis in a train wreck—unflappable. Edyme is like trading in your car for a jet—bold. He’s the guy who’d ask his boss for a pay cut just to prove a point—(uhhh…). He is like watching your kid take his first steps. Imagine Bill Gates struggling with rent—okay, maybe that’s a stretch, but you get the idea, yeah. Unbelievable? Yes. Inconceivable? Perhaps.
Edyme sees himself as a fairly reasonable guy, albeit a bit stubborn. Normal to you is not to him. He is not the one to take the easy road, and why would he? That’s just not the way he roll. He has these favorite lyrics from NF’s “Clouds” that resonate deeply with him: “What you think’s probably unfeasible, I’ve done already a hundredfold.”
PS—Edyme is HIM. HIM-buktu. Him-mulation. Him-Kardashian. Himon and Pumba. He even had his DNA tested, and guess what? He’s 100% Him-alayan. Screw it, he ate the opp.
