JPMorgan Chase has identified $94,000 as Bitcoin’s critical support level, representing what the banking giant calls the market’s ‘pain threshold.’ This updated figure reflects Bitcoin’s rising production costs amid increasing network difficulty and suggests limited downside from current trading levels. While establishing this fundamental floor, the analysis led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou maintains a bullish $170,000 medium-term target based on volatility-adjusted comparisons with gold.
