Bitcoin rate exceeded $36,800 on the market
At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price has already exceeded $36,800. It may soon test the level even higher, and market bulls will try to push the price of digital gold close to $37,000.
The rising 20-day exponential moving average ($33,612) and relative strength index (RSI) in overbought territory indicate the path of least resistance is up. If buyers push the price above the channel, it could clear the way for a rally to $40,000.
On the contrary, if the price turns down and falls below the 20-day EMA, it will mean that the bulls are taking profits. The BTC/USDT pair could then fall to $34,400 and eventually to $34,000.
Transaction fees on the Bitcoin network rose to their highest level since May 2023. The average Bitcoin transaction fee reached $6.84 on Wednesday, up nearly 1,000% from August lows of around $0.64, according to BitInfoCharts.
Higher transaction fees are also a positive sign for BTC's utility and activity.
