BTC Hits Long-Term Downtrend Line & 21-Month EMA; Analyst Says Must Hold to Confirm Uptrend

The significance here is technical rather than fundamental: a long-term downtrend line and the 21-month EMA are the kind of confluence that often decides whether a rally is treated as a genuine trend change or just another bounce. The read-through is mainly for traders watching market structure, not for anyone assessing Bitcoin's underlying adoption. The open question is whether price can establish acceptance above these levels rather than merely touching them; repeated failures at comparable resistance would keep the downtrend narrative intact.
