Strategy Tracks Bitcoin’s 200-Week Average as BTC Slips Below $63,770 on Clarity Act Worries
1 articles · Updated · CoinDesk · Aug 3
Summary
$63,000 bitcoin traded slightly below its 200-week moving average of about $63,770 after Michael Saylor said Strategy is now tracking that level and BTC’s premium or discount to it.
Saylor said bitcoin has traded above the 200-week average 92% of the time since the metric became available, reinforcing the line as a closely watched long-term support level.
Senate agenda concerns pressured prices in the hours after his post, with reports saying the Clarity Act was not listed for Monday despite expectations it could unlock fresh institutional demand for digital assets.
843,775 bitcoin held by Strategy—worth about $53 billion—adds weight to the signal, while Kraken data cited in the report showed buying below the 200-week average has historically produced median 12-month returns above 113%.
