Will Bitcoin be at or above $78,250 on Aug 29?
The daily benchmark printed below the threshold after the breakout failed, so Bitcoin at or above $78,250 on Aug. 29 is a meaningful underdog.
The strongest available daily benchmark is below the threshold, and several contemporaneous spot readings confirm that the earlier move above $81,000 quickly unraveled. Prices remain close enough for a rebound, but fading momentum, renewed fund outflows and potential selling near $80,000 make an above-threshold reading the less likely outcome. The unspecified source and timestamp preserve meaningful uncertainty because intraday and daily measures can produce different results.
