Price Predictions 3/4: BTC, ETH, BNB, XRP, SOL, DOGE, ADA

BTC price predictions turned bullish on March 4 as the leading cryptocurrency surged past $73,800, breaking out of a symmetrical triangle formation backed by strong institutional demand. The rally was fueled by $683.3 million in weekly inflows into United States spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds, according to SoSoValue data, while major altcoins including ETH, BNB, XRP, SOL, DOGE, and ADA attempted to build on the momentum by pushing above key overhead resistance levels.

Bitcoin Breaks Out of Triangle Pattern

BTC's symmetrical triangle pattern resolved to the upside on Wednesday after buyers pushed the price above the resistance line, confirming solid demand from the bulls. The BTC/USDT pair is now approaching the $74,508 level, where sellers are anticipated to mount a significant defense. A successful close above that threshold — followed by a rebound off the 20-day exponential moving average at $68,871 — would signal positive market sentiment and open the door for a move toward $84,000, according to technical analysis. Bitcoin has shown resilience amid broader macro uncertainty, with 10x Research noting that BTC did not sell off on risk-off headlines.

VanEck CEO Jan van Eck stated on CNBC that BTC is currently in the fourth year of its four-year cycle, during which the asset typically rises for three years before declining in the fourth. He added that his firm believes Bitcoin is approaching a bottom and expects it to gradually appreciate over the remainder of 2026. However, 10x Research cautioned that BTC remains in a bear market, characterizing the current bullish positioning as "tactical rather than structural." A close below the 20-day EMA would shift the advantage back to sellers.

BTC is close to a bottom and is expected to gradually start rising this year.

Will Bitcoin Rally to $84,000?

A rally to $84,000 becomes increasingly probable if BTC holds above the 20-day EMA at $68,871 on any pullback from the $74,508 resistance zone, according to chart analysis. The breakout from the symmetrical triangle is a classically bullish signal, and spot Bitcoin ETF inflows totaling $683.3 million this week provide fundamental backing for the upside thesis. On the other hand, a sharp rejection from $74,508 would suggest bears are attempting to flip that level into resistance, potentially dragging the price back below the 20-day EMA and negating the bullish structure.

The divergence between short-term optimism and longer-term caution reflects a market caught between institutional accumulation and lingering macroeconomic headwinds. Traders should closely monitor whether the 20-day EMA holds as dynamic support, as that level will likely determine whether BTC enters a sustained recovery or resumes its consolidation.

ETH, BNB, and XRP Technical Outlook

Ether is attempting to break above the stiff overhead resistance at $2,111, with aggressive buying by the bulls pushing ETH toward that threshold. A close above $2,111 would clear the path for a rally to the 50-day simple moving average at $2,381, according to technical analysis. A break above the 50-day SMA would indicate that the corrective phase may be finished. However, a sharp reversal from $2,111 followed by a drop below $1,907 would suggest the ETH/USDT pair may extend its consolidation between $2,111 and $1,750 for several more days.

BNB surged above its 20-day EMA at $636 on Wednesday, signaling that buyers have overpowered sellers. The next obstacle sits at $670, and clearing that barrier could propel the BNB/USDT pair toward $730. A close above $730 would suggest the pair has bottomed out, with a potential march toward $790. Conversely, a sharp pullback from $670 would indicate rallies are being sold into, keeping BNB range-bound between $570 and $670.

XRP has been trading near its 20-day EMA at $1.42 for several sessions, with buyers maintaining steady pressure. A close above that moving average would open the path toward the downtrend line, and a breakout above that trendline would signal a potential trend reversal. However, if the price turns down from the 50-day SMA at $1.60 or the downtrend line, it confirms bears remain active sellers on rallies, keeping the pair inside its descending channel.

SOL, DOGE, and ADA Price Levels to Watch

Solana has been consolidating between $76 and $95 for the past several days, reflecting demand at lower price points. The flattening 20-day EMA at $86 and the RSI positioned just above the midpoint both suggest selling pressure is diminishing. A push above $95 could trigger a surge toward $117, though sellers will attempt to defend that upper boundary and keep the SOL/USDT pair range-bound.

Dogecoin has struggled to close above the 20-day EMA at $0.10, with bearish pressure raising the risk of a drop below the $0.09 support. A breakdown below that level could send DOGE toward the February 6 low of $0.08, and a close beneath $0.08 may extend losses to $0.06. The first sign of strength would be a close above the 20-day EMA, opening the path toward the 50-day SMA at $0.11 and the overhead resistance at $0.12.

Cardano turned lower from the 20-day EMA at $0.27 on Tuesday, though bulls have not ceded significant ground. Buying on minor dips increases the odds of a break above the 20-day EMA, which would open the path to the downtrend line of the descending channel. A sustained move above that trendline would signal a short-term trend change, with ADA potentially climbing to $0.43.

BCH, HYPE, and LINK Round Out the Top 10

Bitcoin Cash found support above the $443 level after sellers failed to sustain downside pressure, indicating a lack of conviction at lower prices. A relief rally is likely to face resistance at the 20-day EMA near $495, and a sharp rejection there would increase the risk of completing a bearish head-and-shoulders pattern with a downside target of $375. Buyers need to push BCH above the 50-day SMA at $539 to regain control, potentially opening the path to $600.

Hyperliquid bounced off its 20-day EMA at $30.16 on Wednesday, confirming that dip-buyers remain active. The next target is the $36.77 resistance, where bears are expected to mount a strong defense. A range between $20.82 and $36.77 may persist if resistance holds, but a decisive break above $36.77 would signal a new upward move toward $43.50 and possibly $50.

Chainlink has been trading near its 20-day EMA at $8.96, reflecting a tight battle between opposing forces. The flattening moving average and the RSI near the midpoint suggest selling pressure is waning, improving the prospects of a rally to the 50-day SMA at $10.10 and the breakdown level of $10.94. Significant resistance is expected in the $10.94 to $11.61 zone. A drop below $8 would negate this bullish outlook and potentially retest the February 6 low of $7.15.
