Bitcoin falls near $81k as channel rally holds amid $85k signals; Pepeto presale nears sellout
first published 2026-05-14T15:11:49Z
Analyst Ali Martinez (Ali Charts) says BTC has traded inside an ascending channel since April 9 with reliable rebounds on retests of rising support (71k→~78k on Apr 13; 75k→~82.9k on Apr 30). Bitcoin is currently testing the $79,000 support; if it holds, the analyst expects a rally to the channel top near $86,000. A break below $79,000 would invalidate the trend and could trigger a deeper correction.
