Following what is described as an \u201cepic bear trap\u201d to $16,400, Bitcoin has officially set a fresh all-time high.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Explodes Towards $20,000; Sets Fresh All-Time Highs At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading up just over 7% at its current price of $19,500. This marks a slight decline from highs of $19,800 that were set just a few minutes ago. These highs marked fresh all-time highs for spot BTC, but it does appear that bears are putting up a defense of the upper-$20,000 region. Typically, once an asset sets fresh all-time highs, it enters a price discovery mode that leads it to see significantly further gains. This will likely take place for BTC once $20,000 has been firmly broken above and established as a support level. BTC Rallies on the Heels of an \u201cEpic Bear Trap\u201d A few days ago, Bitcoin\u2019s price reeled from the mid-$19,000 region to lows of $16,400. This shifted the market\u2019s sentiment and led many investors to believe that BTC had posted a local top. One analyst spoke about this move in a recent tweet, calling it an \u201cepic bear trap\u201d \u201cBTC: Bitcoin price crushing the daily high.
