Bitcoin price prediction: BTC/USD range-bound with bearish bias

Bitcoin (BTC) has been range-bound with bearish bias on Wednesday. The coin slipped below $8,300 after an unsuccessful attempt to move above $8,500 barrier. In recent 24 hours, the coin has lost about 1.5% of its value amid low trading activity after several volatile days.
