On Sunday, Bitcoin (BTC) found itself suffering, with bulls failing to step in to save the cryptocurrency from falling through the ever-important $8,000 support level.<\/p>\n

By Monday morning, the Bitcoin price hit $7,800 \u2014 a level that analysts said would be a “make or break” for the cryptocurrency bull market<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, at the 11th hour, bulls finally made their presence known. As seen above, when all seemed lost \u2014 analysts were expecting a precipitous drop to $6,500 \u2014 Bitcoin finally mounted a recovery.<\/p>\n

As of the time of writing this, the cryptocurrency has rallied by 5% to retake $8,250.<\/p>\n

While the reversal is not yet set in stone, many analysts are optimistic that this recovery from the important $7,800 level may precede further gains.<\/p>\n

CNN-featured analyst Luke Martin, the founder of CoinistResearch, recently noted that if Bitcoin can close some short-term candles (4-hour, 12-hour) above the $8,300 zone, he would expect the bullish momentum to bring BTC to $8,700 to $9,000.<\/p>\n
