Macroeconomic factors weighed on investor sentiment too during the trading session. The Nasdaq is down 0.97% while the S&P 500 has shed 0.61%. According to Trading Economics, oil prices reached May highs, with Brent crude exceeding $102 per barrel and crude rising above $97 amid the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict. Iran indicated readiness for intensified conflict. On Thursday, **Bitcoin** (CRYPTO: BTC) traded at $76,838.53, down $1,421.86, or 1.82%, over the last 24 hours. **Read Also: $5,000 'Trump Dividend' Echoes Past Promises: Will Bitcoin Rally Again?** ## What Does Cipher Digital Do? Cipher Digital Inc. (formerly Cipher Mining) develops and operates industrial-scale data centers with a primary focus on high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure. ## Technical Analysis From a trend perspective, CIFR is still in a repair phase: it’s trading below all key moving averages, including the 20-day SMA ($16.45) and well under the 50-day SMA ($18.96) and 200-day SMA ($18.41). That keeps overhead supply in focus, because rallies can run into sellers as the stock approaches those longer-term trend lines. The moving-average structure also shows a mixed backdrop—bearish in the near term (20-day SMA below the 50-day SMA), but still holding a bullish longer-term crossover (50-day SMA above the 200-day SMA). Practically, that often translates to choppy "two-way" trade where bounces can happen, but they need follow-through to reclaim the 200-day area and shift the intermediate trend. Key levels traders tend to watch next are: - **Key Resistance**: $18 — a round-number area that also sits near the 200-day SMA/50-day SMA zone, where rebounds can stall - **Key Support**: $14.50 — a nearby floor area where buyers previously stepped in, making it a key "line in the sand" if selling accelerates Zooming out, the stock is up 51.57% over the past 12 months, but it’s also well off the $30.14 52-week high set in June and is now closer to the middle of its $7.90 to $30.14 range. That context matters because it frames the current move as a consolidation/mean-reversion battle rather than a clean breakout trend. **CIFR Stock Price Activity:** Cipher Digital shares were trading at $15.47 down 8.34% at the time of publication on Thursday, according to Benzinga Pro data. **Read Also: Producer Inflation Jumps to 5.4%, Fuels Fed Hike Bets** *Image via Shutterstock* ### Related Stocks - [GBTC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GBTC.US.md) - [CIFR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CIFR.US.md) - [.IXIC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/.IXIC.US.md) - [FBTC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/FBTC.US.md) - [IBIT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IBIT.US.md) - [ARKB.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARKB.US.md) - [BITB.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BITB.US.md) - [BTCW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCW.US.md) - [BTCO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCO.US.md) - [EZBC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/EZBC.US.md) - [BITO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BITO.US.md) - [BRRR.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BRRR.US.md) - [HODL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HODL.US.md) - [ONEQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ONEQ.US.md) - [QQQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QQQ.US.md) - [QQQM.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QQQM.US.md) - [QQEW.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QQEW.US.md) - [QQQE.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QQQE.US.md) - [TQQQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TQQQ.US.md) - [QLD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QLD.US.md) - [PSQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PSQ.US.md) - [SQQQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SQQQ.US.md) - [QID.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QID.US.md) - [CIFU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/CIFU.US.md) - [03008.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03008.HK.md) - [03042.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03042.HK.md) - [03430.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03430.HK.md) - [BTCE.DE](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/BTCE.DE.md) - [.SPX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/.SPX.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Osmosis Took 74 Days To Discover A 40-BTC Nomic Exploit That Left Its Bitcoin-Backed Asset 36% Unbacked](https://longbridge.com/en/news/298903281.md) - [Bitcoin Life Granted Full Life Insurance Licence; Launches Regulated Bitcoin Product for International Investors | BTGO Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/299283162.md) - [$320 million: Ruined by a single cache key](https://longbridge.com/en/news/299443247.md) - [Stacks launches first institutional Bitcoin bond with staking program](https://longbridge.com/en/news/299529063.md) - [Bitcoin whales trim holdings as retail steps in – Can BTC reclaim $80K?](https://longbridge.com/en/news/299026021.md) --- > **Disclaimer: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.**
