- BTC/USD consolidates in the middle of $10,000-$11,000.
- The strong resistance awaits BTC bulls on approach to $11,450.
Bitcoin (BTC) has grown by over 8% in recent 24 hours to trade at $10,500 by the time of writing. The first digital cryptocurrency has been range-bound during early Asian hours, consolidating gains of the previous session. A sustainable move above $10,000 has improved the short-term technical picture; however, the critical $11,000 regains unbroken as of yet.
