Bitcoin's road to $100000 is crowded with would-be sellers

Price loses momentum

Bitcoin briefly moved above $87,000 before returning toward $80,000. The pullback has left the market below levels that would need to be reclaimed for a sustained advance toward higher targets.

Resistance builds

The report identifies a concentration of potential selling near $100,000 and resistance around the low-$80,000s. These barriers could slow Bitcoin even if broader sentiment remains constructive.

Higher targets fade

Prediction-market participants reportedly assign only modest odds to Bitcoin reaching $100,000 by year-end, with still lower odds for $110,000. A $150,000 target would therefore require a sharp acceleration beyond the market's current expectations.

Conditions to watch

The near-term setup suggests that Bitcoin may need to establish support above resistance before the $150,000 question becomes more credible. ETF demand, interest-rate expectations, and risk appetite remain important variables.
