The Bitcoin (BTC) price has been consolidating over the last week and so floating just above the $26,000 level. On the technical charts, the selling pressure on the BTC price is clearly visible with analysts expecting a drop to $25,000 and below.
As per the PoW Floor pricing model, the BTC price can further drop by another 40% and under $15,000 levels, reports popular crypto journalist Ali Martinez. As per historical patterns, this would mark the end of bearish trends. Not necessary that the BTC price would drop to the $14,800 level as Bitcoin has very strong support at $20,900.
