Weighing The Bullish And Bearish Cases

However, given that the digital asset fails to go bearish and decides to go bullish, it will begin to move toward the $66,607 resistance level. It could move even higher to challenge the $71,909 resistance level if it breaks above the aforementioned level and possibly moves on to test its new high.
