Bitcoin Price Slips Below $58K Amid Justin Sun WBTC Drama, As Top Experts Say This Crypto Might Explode Next

The Bitcoin price dropped 4% in the last 24 hours to trade at $58,348 as of 03:34 a.m. EST on trading volume that surged 87% to $27 billion.

This comes as Justin Sun’s WBTC custody move sparks controversy in crypto after his partnership with BitGo. The partnership has prompted the community to prompt decentralization concerns.

However, Sun has clarified that he does not control the private keys of WBTC reserves. He emphasizes his commitment to promoting decentralization and security in the DeFi ecosystem.

As concerns prevailed, the price of Bitcoin dropped below $58K to trade at $57,963 before rebounding to its current price.

One event that may change the bearish sentiment is the upcoming Donald Trump interview with Elon Musk.

In the interview, the crypto topic might come up, as Trump and Musk are pro-crypto.

Bitcoin Price Could Sustain The Bullish Momentum

The Bitcoin price took a tumble at the beginning of August, dropping from the $65,800 resistance to find support around $50,000, according to data from GeckoTerminal .

BTC price bulls then took control of the price, as BTC has been trading within the rising channel pattern despite dropping slightly below the channel yesterday.

The price of Bitcoin aims to continue with the bullish stance, as it now trades above the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). If the bullish stance continues, BTC could eventually overcome the 200-day SMA at $62,463.

Moreover, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is also dropping below the 50-midline level as it closes in the oversold region, currently at 40. If the buying continues, the RSI could prompt buying signals, as BTC will become undervalued.

According to the Bitcoin price analysis on the 4-hour chart, BTC is currently on a slight drop but showing strong signs of a bullish trend reversal.

If the bulls buy the asset, prompted by the asset becoming undervalued, the price of Bitcoin could go through a trend reversal to climb back to the rising channel, as they target the resistance zone at $66,725.

However, in an inverse scenario, the BTC price could plunge back to the $55,000 support, if the BTC bears continue selling the asset.

Meanwhile, as the Bitcoin price aims for a continued surge over the channel, other investors are also buying the new Solana GameFi project, Mega Dice (DICE) , as it continues to draw attention.
