Bitcoin (BTC) is moving farther away from the crucial $90,000 mark, indicating that buying dries up at higher levels. Market participants seem nervous about the fresh round of US trade tariffs and the renewed inflation pressure as US Personal Consumption Expenditures data came in hotter-than-expected.

Traders are divided about Bitcoin’s price trajectory in 2025. Analyzing data from the prediction markets platform Polymarket, X user Ashwin highlighted that Bitcoin’s most bearish target for 2025 is $59,040, and the most bullish is $138,617.

Although the near-term remains uncertain, Real Vision chief crypto analyst Jamie Coutts remains bullish on Bitcoin. Coutts told Cointelegraph that Bitcoin could hit a new all-time high above $109,000 before the end of the second quarter. He added that a lack of clarity on the US tariffs and recession concerns are unlikely to derail the potential Bitcoin rally.

What are the important support levels to watch out for in Bitcoin and the major altcoins? Let’s analyze the charts of the top 10 cryptocurrencies to find out.

*Bitcoin price analysis*

Bitcoin turned down from the resistance line and broke below the 20-day exponential moving average ($85,765) on March 28.

The bears will try to pull the price below the immediate support at $83,000. If they do that, the BTC/USDT pair could slide to $81,000 and later to $80,000. Buyers are expected to fiercely defend the zone between $76,606 and $80,000.

The bulls will have to push and maintain the price above the resistance line to signal that the correction may be ending. A close above the 50-day simple moving average ($89,346) could propel the pair to $95,000 and eventually to the psychological resistance at $100,000.

*Ether price analysis*

Ether (ETH) turned down from the breakdown level of $2,111 and broke below the 20-day EMA ($2,032), indicating that the bears remain in control.

Sellers will try to sink the ETH/USDT pair to the $1,800 to $1,754 support zone. Buyers are expected to vigorously defend the zone because a break below it could resume the downtrend. The next stop on the downside could be $1,550.

Buyers will have to push and sustain the price above $2,111 to signal that the bearish momentum is weakening. The 50-day SMA ($2,293) may act as a hurdle on the upside, but if taken out, the pair could rally to $2,550.

*XRP price analysis*

XRP (XRP) turned down and broke below the moving averages on March 26, indicating that the bears remain sellers on every minor rise.

The bears will try to sink the price to the vital support at $2. Buyers are expected to defend the level with all their might because a break below $2 will complete a bearish head-and-shoulders pattern. The XRP/USDT pair may then plunge to $1.27.

On the contrary, a strong bounce off the $2 support could keep the pair stuck inside the triangle for a while longer. The bulls will be back in the driver’s seat on a break and close above the resistance line.

*BNB price analysis*

BNB (BNB) has been trading between the moving averages and the $644 resistance for the past few days.

The upsloping 20-day EMA ($618) and the RSI in the positive territory signal a slight advantage to buyers. If the price rebounds off the moving averages with strength, it improves the prospects of a break above $644. The BNB/USDT pair could then surge to $686.

Contrary to this assumption, if the price continues lower and breaks below the moving averages, it indicates that the bulls have given up. The pair may descend to the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of $591.

*Solana price analysis*

Solana (SOL) broke below the 20-day EMA ($136) on March 28, suggesting a lack of demand from the bulls.

Sellers will try to sink the price to the $120 to $110 support zone. Buyers are expected to defend the support zone aggressively because a break and close below it could resume the downtrend toward $80.

The 50-day SMA ($153) is the critical overhead resistance to watch out for. Buyers will have to kick the price above the 50-day SMA to indicate that the SOL/USDT pair may have formed a floor at $110. The pair could then jump to $180.

*Dogecoin price analysis*

Dogecoin (DOGE) turned down from the 50-day SMA ($0.21) on March 26, indicating that the sentiment remains negative.

The flattish 20-day EMA ($0.18) and the RSI just below the midpoint suggest a range-bound action in the near term. The DOGE/USDT pair could swing between $0.14 and the 50-day SMA for some time.

If the price turns up from the current level and breaks above the 50-day SMA, it will signal that the bulls are trying to form a higher low. That increases the possibility of a break above the 50-day SMA. The pair may ascend to $0.24 and later to $0.29.

*Cardano price analysis*

Cardano’s (ADA) failure to sustain above the 50-day SMA ($0.75) may have attracted profit booking by short-term buyers.

The ADA/USDT pair could slip to the uptrend line, where the buyers are expected to step in. If the price rebounds off the uptrend line, the bulls will again attempt to drive the pair above the 50-day SMA. If they succeed, the pair may rise to $0.84 and then to $1.02.

Contrarily, a break and close below the uptrend line suggests that the bears have overpowered the bulls. The pair may drop to the $0.58 to $0.50 support zone, which is likely to attract buyers.

*Toncoin price analysis*

Toncoin (TON) turned up from the 20-day EMA ($3.54) on March 26 and reached the overhead resistance of $4.14 on March 27.

The upsloping 20-day EMA and the RSI in the positive territory indicate advantage to buyers. If the price turns up from the current level or the 20-day EMA, it increases the likelihood of a break above $4.14. That opens the doors for a rise to $5.

This positive view will be invalidated in the near term if the price breaks below the moving averages. There is minor support at $3.32, but if the level cracks, the TON/USDT pair could slide to $2.81.

*Chainlink price analysis*

Chainlink (LINK) turned down from the 50-day SMA ($15.96) on March 28 and broke below the 20-day EMA ($14.76), indicating that bears are selling on rallies.

If the price sustains below the 20-day EMA, the bears will try to strengthen their position by pulling the LINK/USDT pair toward the support line. A break and close below the support line could sink the pair to $10.

Buyers are likely to have other plans. They will try to quickly arrest the decline and push the price above the 50-day SMA. If they manage to do that, the pair could climb to $17.70 and subsequently to the resistance line.

*Avalanche price analysis*

Avalanche (AVAX) failed to sustain above the 50-day SMA ($21.93), signaling that the bears are active at higher levels.

The 20-day EMA ($20.51) is the critical support to watch out for. If the price closes below the 20-day EMA, the AVAX/USDT pair could skid to $18. Buyers are expected to defend the $18 level, but if the bears prevail, the pair could retest the critical support at $15.27.

The first sign of strength will be a break and close above the 50-day SMA. That suggests solid buying at lower levels. The pair may then attempt a rally to the $25.12 to $27.23 overhead resistance zone.
