    Analyst Notes: Popular on-chain analytics firm CryptoQuant noted that Bitcoin was still not overvalued, despite leaping to new highs.





    "The MVRV ratio shows BTC is still far from peak levels. The price is also close to the purchase cost of traders, indicating it's not overheated. This hints at a potential for further growth," the firm said in an X post.











    Arthur Azizov, CEO of cryptocurrency payment provider B2BINPAY, said in a statement to Benzinga that Bitcoin might correct sharply by the end of this week or early next.





    "The Bitcoin chart shows significant uncovered liquidity below the current price, while liquidity above has already been absorbed, indicating that a downward movement is needed to support sustainable future growth. Additionally, the Federal Reserve's rate announcement on Thursday is expected to bring further price volatility," Azizov added.





    Furthermore, he expected BTC to range between $80,000 and $90,000 by year-end.
