The Bitcoin price edged up a fraction of a percent in the last 24 hours to trade at $97,674 as of 02:25 a.m. EST on trading volume that dropped 21% to $113 billion. 
This comes as Microsoft shareholders recently rejected a proposal to invest in Bitcoin, despite predictions of significant market growth. MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor had earlier presented the proposal, advocating for Microsoft to diversify its portfolio by allocating a portion of its reserves to Bitcoin. 
Despite his optimistic outlook, Microsoft’s board cautioned against the plan, citing concerns about potential risks and volatility.&nbsp; 
Meanwhile, Bitcoin continues to attract massive attention from individuals and firms, including Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, who views Bitcoin and gold as stores of value that help investors move away from debt and towards hard money.&nbsp; 
Additionally, Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon stated that the firm could consider trading Bitcoin and Ethereum if US regulations change, noting that while Bitcoin is currently a speculative asset, growing interest in crypto may lead to new opportunities for the firm.

The <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bitcoin">Bitcoin price</a> chart displays a strong bullish trend overall, particularly in recent months. After a prolonged sideways consolidation phase between August and November 2024, within the $62,000 level by the purple rectangle), the price broke out decisively and has been making higher highs and higher lows since then. 
Currently, the Bitcoin price is consolidating within a rising channel pattern (yellow lines) near the psychological resistance level of $100,000, according to data from <a href="https://www.geckoterminal.com/eth/pools/0x9db9e0e53058c89e5b94e29621a205198648425b">GeckoTerminal</a>. This pattern often signals a potential slowdown or correction but can also lead to the continuation of strong bull markets. 
As the Bitcoin price trades well within the confines of the rising channel pattern, BTC still remains above both the 50-day and 200-day Simple Moving Averages (SMAs), which shows that the asset could still soar higher. 
Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently at 58.48, indicating neutral to mildly bullish momentum. This suggests that the price is not yet overbought, leaving room for further upside. 
Major resistance is around the $100,000 level. A clear break above this level with volume could open the door for further upside, as the bulls target $105,000 in the long term.
