bitcoin Price Falls, Consolidation Suggests Retest of $100,000
bitcoin is currently <a target="_blank" href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin“>trading at $95,826showing a slight drop of $540.37 (-0.57%). This small pullback could be part of a consolidation phase, which could trigger a more significant move soon. Key support lies at $93,428, aligning with the steadily rising 50-day moving average (SMA), which has been acting as a reliable dynamic support.
Below that, the 200-day SMA at $70,444 offers another solid safety net, highlighting bitcoin's strong long-term uptrend. Adding to this positive outlook, the Golden Cross in mid-November, where the 50-day SMA crossed above the 200-day SMA, is often seen as a sign of upcoming sustained rallies.

BTCUSD Analysis Source Tradingview
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 57.95, indicating moderate bullish energy with room to rise before reaching overbought levels above 70. The RSI signal line near 46.24 hints at a possible bullish crossover , which points to a bullish reversal soon.
The chart also shows a rounded bottom pattern from September to October, indicating a shift from bearish to bullish sentiment. This could mark a critical reversal zone for bitcoin to retest the $100,000 psychological level.
If it overcomes this hurdle, the next target could be $120,000 in the medium term. However, if bitcoin falls below the $93,428 support, it could see a deeper correction, with the 200-day SMA at $70,444 likely acting as the next major support.
Flockerz pre-sale exceeds $8 million
As investors sell bitcoin in the short term, they continue to buy a meme coin called Flockerz (FLOCK), which just surpassed $7.6 million in funds raised in its pre-sale, which has less than 30 days left.
An analyst from YouTube channel 99 Bitcoins, with over 719,000 subscribers, ranks FLOCK among the top 3 ICOs and says it has the potential to skyrocket 100x once it launches.
Flockerz calls itself “The People's Meme Coin” and is turning heads with its innovative Vote-to-Earn (V2E) system.
Unlike typical meme coins controlled by a minority of insiders, Flockerz actively involves its community in shaping the future of the project.
Holders who vote on key decisions not only contribute, but also get FLOCK tokens as a reward. This approach goes beyond simple governance, transforming participation into a way to earn income while giving the community real control over the direction of the project.
