Key Notes
- Bitcoin rallies to $107K, driven by ETF inflows and weakening long-term holder profits.
- Bitfinex warns of fading momentum, as OBV and MACD show signs of exhaustion.
- Bulls eye $140K targets via Fib levels, but macro catalysts like Fed policy will likely dictate the next breakout.
After briefly surging past $107,000 with a 13% jump in trading volume, the world’s largest cryptocurrency could be setting its sights on $140,000, but the road ahead may not be as straightforward as Bitcoin

Long-Term Holders Show Resilience, But Profit-Taking Looms
Analyst Darkfost highlighted that the unrealized profits of long-term holders (LTH) have steadily declined and are now approaching levels last seen during the October 2024 correction.
However, with an average unrealized profit of around 220%, compared to 300% and 350% during previous cycles, there’s still room for upside. Darkfost noted that to reach profit levels comparable to previous peaks, Bitcoin would need to hit $140K.

The realized price for long-term holders now sits at $39,000, reinforcing that most LTHs remain deeply in profit and are likely to continue holding unless a parabolic move materializes.
Bitfinex: Momentum Fading, Consolidation Likely
Bitfinex analysts, however, offered a more cautious perspective. In their latest market report, they noted that momentum is starting to wane after a nearly three-month rally that pushed Bitcoin up by over 41% from its April lows of $73,273.
“For the first time in that uptrend, momentum has begun to fade,” they said, adding that on-chain data points to reduced spot buying pressure and increased profit-taking, particularly among short-term holders who entered positions below $80,000.

Order flow data indicates that Bitcoin may be entering a consolidation phase rather than preparing for another vertical rally, according to Bitfinex.
ETF Inflows and Macro Factors Still Supportive
Despite signs of exhaustion, institutional appetite remains strong. Bitcoin ETFs in the US have seen 15 consecutive days of net inflows, totaling $4.75 billion as of June 30.
On June 30, spot Bitcoin ETFs saw a total net inflow of $102 million, marking 15 consecutive days of net inflows. Spot Ethereum ETFs recorded a total net inflow of $31.76 million, with all nine ETFs showing no outflows.https://t.co/ueXcZjuIVU

Economist Timothy Peterson described last week’s $2.2 billion inflows as “massive,” expecting the positive streak to continue and potentially support further price appreciation.
Massive inflows into US Bitcoin ETFs last week!
$2.2 billion!
This ranks among the top 10 weeks since inception.

Eyes are now on the Federal Reserve’s upcoming interest rate decision on July 30. Lower rates typically favor risk assets like Bitcoin, though current market estimates suggest only a 19% chance of a cut.
Technical Outlook: Key Fibonacci Levels in Play
As visible on the daily chart, Bitcoin is currently trading near the 0.786 Fibonacci level at approximately $108,000, a crucial resistance zone.
If this level is decisively broken, the next major Fibonacci targets stand at 1.618 Fib extension ($118,275), 2.618 Fib extension ($130,538), and 3.618 Fib extension ($142,801).

On the flip side, support levels lie near the 0.618 Fib zone ($105,000) and the psychological barrier at $100,000.
The On-Balance Volume (OBV) remains steady, suggesting that despite profit-taking, there’s no mass exodus from the asset. However, the MACD is showing early signs of a potential bearish crossover, indicating possible short-term weakness.
