Meanwhile, minutes from the April Federal Reserve meeting showed that a majority of officials expected interest rate hikes if inflation, exacerbated by the Middle East conflict, were to continue running persistently above 2%.  ## Why This BTC Ceiling Is ‘Significant’ Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst **Ali Martinez** identified $77,800 as a level of interest for Bitcoin. "A clean breakout above the $77,800 ceiling is significant. If we flip this level into support, it clears the path for BTC to accelerate toward $79,000," the analyst projected. If the resistance holds, Martinez expects a healthy retracement, with $76,900 and $76,000 identified as key support levels. > $77,800 is the key level to watch for Bitcoin $BTC. > > I'm tracking a well-defined channel that has developed on the lower timeframes, specifically the 15-minute chart.

Blockchain analytics firm CryptoQuant noted that Ethereum's downside breakout from the triangle formation indicated that the "consolidation phase has shifted in favor of sellers." "If Ethereum fails to reclaim the broken triangle structure, selling pressure could accelerate further and price may target the $1,350 support level," CryptoQuant predicted. > Ethereum Confirms a Bearish Breakdown > > "If Ethereum fails to reclaim the broken triangle structure, selling pressure could accelerate further, and price may target the $1,350 support level." – By @PelinayPA pic.twitter.com/HS4pnK7CSO > > — CryptoQuant.com (@cryptoquant\_com) May 20, 2026 **Read Also: Michael Burry Fears Crypto-Based Stocks Will Add To An Era Of No 'Long-Term Personal Relationships' In A Cyber-Punk Future** _Photo: KateStock / Shutterstock_ _Image via Shutterstock/ Joshua Sukoff_ ### Related Stocks - [RIOT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/RIOT.US.md) - [COIN.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/COIN.US.md) - [MARA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MARA.US.md) - [ETHE.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHE.US.md) - [HUT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HUT.US.md) - [GBTC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GBTC.US.md) - [ABTC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ABTC.US.md) - [GLXY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GLXY.US.md) - [QETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QETH.US.md) - [BITB.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BITB.US.md) - [EETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/EETH.US.md) - [ETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETH.US.md) - [BTCO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCO.US.md) - [ETHA.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHA.US.md) - [RIOX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/RIOX.US.md) - [BTCW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCW.US.md) - [EZET.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/EZET.US.md) - [BITO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BITO.US.md) - [EZBC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/EZBC.US.md) - [CETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CETH.US.md) - [ARKB.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARKB.US.md) - [FETH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FETH.US.md) - [CONL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CONL.US.md) - [BTF.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTF.US.md) - [ETHV.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHV.US.md) - [HODL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HODL.US.md) - [BLOK.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BLOK.US.md) - [BRRR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BRRR.US.md) - [LMBO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/LMBO.US.md) - [FBTC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FBTC.US.md) - [ETHW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHW.US.md) - [BTCHKD.VAHK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCHKD.VAHK.md) - [BTCUSD.VAHK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCUSD.VAHK.md) - [ETHHKD.VAHK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHHKD.VAHK.md) - [ETHUSD.VAHK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ETHUSD.VAHK.md) - [DOGEUSD.VAHK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/DOGEUSD.VAHK.md) ## Related News & Research - [THORChain confirms $10M exploit, rolls out recovery portal for affected users](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286642125.md) - [10:17 ETBybit uruchamia promocję dla posiadaczy kart Bybit z okazji BTC Pizza DAY](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286581131.md) - [Hut 8 Commits $16 Million to Expand Water Infrastructure in West Feliciana Parish | HUT Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286894933.md) - [VanEck Ethereum ETF 1Q 2026: Net income $(44.78) M — 10-Q Summary](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286457595.md) - [OpenAI collaborates with Plaid; LayerZero is abandoned by multiple protocols.](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286627620.md)
