There was a sense the tide had turned when Swiss National Bank surprised markets and cut its interest rate on Thursday — the first of the central banks in the developed world to do so.

Bitcoin has shown resilience, rebounding to the $67,000 mark after the Federal Reserve's decision to maintain key interest rates for the fifth consecutive meeting. However, this upward trajectory was short-lived as Bitcoin promptly retreated to the $65,000 level, spurred by a strengthening US dollar possibly catalyzed by the Swiss Central Bank's decision to reduce interest rates by 25 basis points. Additionally, the outflows on Bitcoin spot ETFs especially from Grayscale’s GBTC rose contributing to the downward trend. Despite these temporary setbacks, Bitcoin has managed to sustain itself above the critical $60,000 threshold, showcasing impressive growth of 26% over the past month and a staggering 133% over the past year. The next support level would be around $64,000, with resistance expected at $67,300. Concurrently, Ethereum hovers around the $3,500 mark, with bullish sentiments aiming to reclaim levels above $3,600, potentially triggering an upward trend.
