Bitcoin falls below 200-week moving average for first time since 2022 bear market

Bitcoin recently closed a weekly candle below its 200-week moving average for the first time since June 2022, trading around $58,000 to $62,000. This moving average has historically marked bear market lows and acted as strong support during downturns. The drop reflects broader macroeconomic pressures, including shifts in Federal Reserve rate expectations. Traders are closely watching whether Bitcoin can reclaim this level soon, as prolonged stays below it have previously led to deeper sell-offs and capitulation phases.
