For 2024, Bitcoin is back with a bang

We're back, and so is Bitcoin.

It doesn’t look good on the mechanics side, but for now, it’s been supported by a strong Spot bid, which is good. 

Let's look into this further. Open interest on BTC is back to $19b, the same as recent highs, but also, the last time Open Interest was this high was when the price was at all-time highs in November 2021.

 The Funding Rate is also massively positive. For now, this is fine because a Spot bid is supporting it. However, if that Spot bid decreases (potentially post-ETF approval), and Funding stays high, then we likely see a relatively nasty flush out. 

Due to ETF, the price can get further upside, but we are thinking not loads - maybe a 10% increase.

Technical analysis

  • BTC saw a brilliant move late yesterday, and it’s now comfortably closed above the $44,000 horizontal resistance.
  • There is a resistance range from prior price action between $46k and $48k, so if price can move higher, that’ll be a really interesting level to watch for weakness or strength.
  • $44,000 is hopefully now the new horizontal support until broken. If broken, $41,000 is the horizontal support.
  • The RSI has reset relatively on all timeframes except the Weekly, although it isn't majorly overbought. The 3D is similar but not disastrous.

Cryptonary's take

We saw new Spot bids ape in late last night and push price higher, with the CME really aggressively moving higher.

 Does TradFi know the ETF is getting approved sooner?

The price will likely continue to be positive until then, and on approval, we may get a $2k-$4k candle to the upside. 

However, following this, we will be super cautious.

The reason is that many TradFi players will likely close out their Longs to book profits with all the positive news that has now come.

We may see a more meaningful pullback in the following month.

Bitcoin started 2024 with a strong move up, but what does the rest of 2024 have in stock for your portfolio?

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
