On April 10, CoinDesk reported that Bitcoin's price has increased by nearly 7% since last Sunday, but the upward momentum has stalled around $72,000, with market confidence still lacking. Investors are awaiting key events such as the US inflation report on Friday and the US-Iran ceasefire negotiations this weekend. Caution is also evident in the options market. Institutions continue to position for upward movement through call options, with $80,000 call options on Deribit becoming the most popular bet. According to QCP Capital, options linked to BlackRock's Bitcoin spot ETF (IBIT) show strong demand for $45 strike call options expiring in May, as traders expect the IBIT price to rise from the current level of around $40 to above this threshold. Meanwhile, demand for put options (which provide downside protection) remains consistent, with option skew maintaining negative values across all time frames, reflecting the market's ongoing preference for downside protection. On a macro level, the US March CPI is expected to show a significant year-on-year increase exceeding 3%, primarily driven by rising energy prices. If the core CPI, excluding food and energy, exceeds the expected annualized rate of 2.7%, it will further strengthen expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate hikes, putting pressure on risk assets like Bitcoin. In terms of geopolitics, representatives from the US and Iran will hold talks in Pakistan this weekend. If both sides find a way to end the war and restore normal passage for tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, Bitcoin's upward momentum may accelerate.

On April 10, foreign exchange analyst Giuseppe Dellamotta stated that, given the market's focus on US-Iran negotiations and the general perception that the rise in March inflation data was caused by the war, the market is likely to overlook today's data, as everything depends on the outcome of the US-Iran negotiations. There is a significant divergence in predictions for overall CPI, while predictions for core CPI are more concentrated. The Federal Reserve is currently in a firmly neutral position but has opened the door for further tightening of policies in case inflation expectations begin to rise or if the war lasts longer than anticipated. The market expects a loosening space of 7 basis points by the end of the year, indicating that no rate hikes or cuts are expected in 2026.

On April 10, The Block reported that TD Cowen has reduced the target price for Strategy (MSTR) by 20.5% from $440 to $350, while maintaining a buy rating. Analysts Lance Vitanza and Jonathan Navarrete attributed this adjustment to a "downward revision of Bitcoin price expectations" and a decrease in the valuation multiple for the company's Bitcoin earnings. They lowered the expected "BTC revenue" for Strategy in fiscal year 2026 to $7.87 billion, down from $10.17 billion in 2025, but still believe the company's core investment logic lies in converting market demand for volatility into Bitcoin in an "efficient leverage form." TD Cowen's baseline scenario assumes Bitcoin will reach $140,000 by December 2026, with the company accumulating approximately $5 billion in Bitcoin each quarter; in an optimistic scenario, Bitcoin rises to $175,000, with accumulation exceeding $5 billion per quarter; in a pessimistic scenario, Bitcoin drops to $25,000, leading the company to pause accumulation due to market conditions or financing constraints. Additionally, TD Cowen has initiated coverage on four digital asset treasury companies, all receiving buy ratings: Sharplink (SBET), Strive (ASST), Nakamoto Holdings (NAKA), and The Smarter Web Company (SWC.LN). Target prices are set at $16 for Sharplink, $26 for Strive, $1 for Nakamoto Holdings, and £1 (approximately $1.34) for The Smarter Web Company.

On April 10, CoinDesk reported that the cryptocurrency market stabilized overall on Friday, with Bitcoin slightly fluctuating around $71,700 and Ethereum at $2,180, continuing the low volatility trend of the past few months. In terms of technical indicators, Bitcoin's daily Bollinger Bands have narrowed to their tightest level since early 2024. Crypto analyst Eric Crown noted that since early February, Bitcoin's price has remained within the range of $63,000 to $75,000, and historically, whenever such a narrow range occurs, the price eventually experiences about a 40% volatility. According to CoinGlass's liquidation heatmap, if Bitcoin breaks above $75,000, it will trigger upward momentum, forcing short sellers to cover their positions; conversely, if it falls below $70,000 in the short term, approximately $200 million in long positions betting on a breakout will be liquidated. One of the key catalysts on Friday was the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) data. March's inflation rate is expected to be 3.3% year-on-year, driven by soaring energy prices. Higher inflation data often strengthens the dollar, which in turn exerts pressure on risk assets like Bitcoin.
