Bitcoin price looks stuck in the near term, but TON, RNDR, PEPE and AR could surprise traders by making a strong upside move.

Bitcoin (BTC) could not hold its recovery this week, signaling that the bears have not given up and are using the rallies to sell. Bitcoin is on track to finish the week with a loss of more than 4%. The longer the price stays closer to $60,000, the greater the possibility of a downside breakdown.
