It kept climbing in the following days to a local peak of $96,000 reached on April 25. Consolidation ensued for the next week or so as BTC remained stuck in a tight range between $93,000 and $95,000.The lower boundary was tested on a couple of occasions, but it helped maintain BTC’s price. The last unsuccessful attempt was on Wednesday, after which the cryptocurrency went on the offensive and broke above the upper boundary.This resulted in a price surge to $97,500 on Thursday and to $98,000 on Friday. The latter became the asset’s highest price point in over two months. However, it failed to breach that level and challenge $100,000 as the bears pushed it south by over two grand despite some positive on-chain developments that suggest another rally is around the corner.As of now, BTC struggles below $96,000 after a minor daily correction.
