Bitcoin is holding its breath, and so are investors. Hovering just above $110,000 (£90,000), the world's biggest cryptocurrency is locked in a tense stand-off between buyers and sellers.
Bulls see it as the calm before a monster breakout, while bears warn it could be the setup for a brutal correction.
The digital asset has been trapped between $109,000 (£89,000) and $114,000 (£93,000) for days, teasing traders with every flicker of movement.
On the charts, it is a battle line: the 100-day moving average sitting near $114K is capping rallies, while the 200-day average around $109K is keeping it afloat. Every test sparks a tug of war, and patience is wearing thin.
