Following the highly anticipated 2024 Bitcoin Conference in Nashville, Tennessee, over the weekend, a notable spike in positive market sentiment drove the Bitcoin price to a one-month high of $70,000 on Monday. Analysts are now eyeing the potential for an extended super-cycle, with market expert Doctor Profit suggesting that the recent rally could begin a significant uptrend with plenty of room to run. Bitcoin Price Projections According to a recent report by Doctor Profit, the current price action is the first phase of this potential super cycle, noting that during the 2021 bull run, he had accurately predicted Bitcoin’s crash to around $18,000, followed by the capitulation event triggered by the FTX collapse, where it hit $15,400. “At this point, I posted that I am going all in with the 2021 bull market gains back into the market at prices between $16,000 and $18,000,” Doctor Profit stated. “This bottom price is historically significant and unlikely to be revisited.” Related Reading: Dogecoin Price (DOGE) Eyes Impressive Gains: Will It Break Through? The analyst further explained the various phases of the current market cycle, highlighting the “pre-bull” phase characterized by resistance at $38,500, which needed to be breached to enter the second pre-bull phase. Doctor Profit believes that this phase was driven by significant buying activity from Binance, Changpeng Zhao (CZ), Justin Sun, and Bitfinex whales, as well as the filing of the Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) by BlackRock in June 2023. The “Golden Bull” phase, as seen in the chart above, followed the approval of the BlackRock Bitcoin ETF and saw the entry of traditional financial players into the crypto market, leaving the $48,000 to $74,000 range as one of the most crucial support levels that will be defended during the upcoming bull market, according to the analyst. “This region of golden bull will mark, or be very close to the Bitcoin bottom for the incoming bear market,” Doctor Profit explained. “Again, this region is BlackRock investors’ entry, and at all cost they will defend it during this bull market.” Considering these levels that could support BTC’s price in the coming months, Doctor Profit’s technical analysis points out that the initial target for this super cycle is set at the $86,000 threshold, with projections ranging between $110,000 and $120,000 in a conservative scenario. However, Doctor Profit noted that in the most optimistic scenario, the Bitcoin price could soar between $180,000 and $220,000 if the price surges above $70,000 and consolidates above this milestone. Investor Confidence Peaks Adding to the bullish sentiment, a recent report by CoinShares showed that Bitcoin has seen healthy inflows of $519 million in the past week, bringing its month-to-date inflows to $3.6 billion and year-to-date inflows to a record $19 billion. The firm noted that this surge in inflows and investor confidence could be attributed to the potential use of BTC by the US government as a strategic reserve asset following Donald Trump’s speech on Saturday, as well as the increased likelihood of a Federal Reserve rate cut in September 2024. Related Reading: XRP Price Hints at Breakout: Can It Achieve New Heights? As reported by our sister site Bitcoinist, former US President Donald Trump reiterated his plans to create a national Bitcoin stash and turn the cryptocurrency into a strategic reserve asset for the US dollar. Trump also promised that the US government would retain ownership of all BTC in custody rather than participate in a market sell-off that could ultimately affect price action and potential upward movement. At the time of writing, the largest cryptocurrency on the market is trading at $68,800, registering price gains of 1.3% and 2.3% in the 24-hour and 7-day time frames, respectively.

During the 2024 Bitcoin Conference in Nashville, Tennessee, Jan van Eck, CEO of global asset manager and Bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) issuer VanEck, made headlines with his revealing comments about his personal Bitcoin holdings. Van Eck Reveals Personal BTC Holdings During his appearance at the conference, Van Eck began by sharing his perspective on Bitcoin’s growth and evolution over time, likening it to a “teenager” that is not yet fully formed, as many investor classes have not yet joined the market. Related Reading: Wall Street Expert Sees 20x Potential In Ripple Via XRP And IPO Addressing his investment approach, Van Eck revealed that in his conversations with other attendees at Bitcoin conferences, he has found that they tend to hold significantly more Bitcoin in their portfolios. He further stated: Everyone I meet at Bitcoin conferences owns way more in their own portfolio, and I always say, wait a minute, I always want to tell people what I’m doing personally because they should know. Interestingly, when asked about his portfolio, Jan Van Eck replied that he owns “well over 30%” in Bitcoin without disclosing the amount in BTC or USD. This disclosure comes as VanEck recently published a report outlining a significant bullish long-term price projection for BTC, suggesting that the Bitcoin price could reach a value of $2.9 million per coin by 2050. $2.9M Bitcoin Forecast By 2050 Per the report, Bitcoin’s scalability issues, which have historically hindered widespread adoption, will be resolved through the emergence of advanced Layer-2 (L2) solutions. By combining Bitcoin’s “immutable property rights and sound money principles” with the increased functionality of Layer 2 technology, the asset manager envisions creating a new, globally accessible financial system. Under this optimistic scenario, the VanEck team believes that by 2050, Bitcoin could be used to settle 10% of the globe’s international trade and 5% of the world’s domestic trade. According to the report, this level of adoption could lead to central banks holding 2.5% of their assets in Bitcoin, driving the price of the largest cryptocurrency on the market to a substantial $2.9 million per coin by the year 2050. Related Reading: Why Is ETH Price Struggling Despite The Spot Ethereum ETFs Launch? In addition, the report estimates that Bitcoin L2 solutions could be worth a total of $7.6 trillion, or approximately 12% of Bitcoin’s total projected value. The asset manager further noted: Though it has established itself as an important store of value assets, our projection of its price more than 25 years into the future is predicated on the assumption that increasing numbers of people around the globe use Bitcoin as a medium of exchange. At the time of writing, BTC was trading at $67,600, up over 4% in the last 24 hours, after hitting a weekly low of $63,500 on Thursday. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com

American investment management firm VanEck has set an astonishing price target for Bitcoin (BTC), the world’s largest cryptocurrency. This forecast, which seems almost inconceivably high compared to most market predictions, has garnered significant attention. Despite the ambitious forecast, VanEck’s research team has presented a comprehensive rationale explaining why they believe such a substantial price increase is attainable. VanEck Predicts Bitcoin Valuation For 2050 On July 24, VanEck published a report, outlining the teams’ assumptions for a bull scenario in which BTC could potentially rise to $52.38 million by 2050. Notably, the research team predicted Bitcoin’s future price based on three scenarios during a Base, Bear and Bull market. Related Reading: Ethereum Whales Rapidly Accumulate ETH Amid Price Decline For the base scenario, VanEck’s team believes that Bitcoin could potentially surge as high as $2.9 million by 2050. The analysts have rooted their predictions on the possibility that Bitcoin could be utilized to settle 10% of the globe’s international trade and 5% of the world’s domestic trade. Under this scenario, central banks may hold about 2.5% of their assets in Bitcoin, further increasing its adoption and exposure. VanEck’s team has also attributed their projected surge in BTC’s value to assumptions of anticipated global growth, rising investor demand and Bitcoin’s substantial transaction volume. The research team estimated Bitcoin’s value for 2050 using a simple velocity of money equation that includes three key factors – GDP of trade settled in Bitcoin, supply of circulating Bitcoin and Velocity of Bitcoin in the market. While predicting a bull surge to $52.38 million, VanEck’s analysts assumed that by 2050, Bitcoin will play a crucial role in the international monetary system, capturing significant market share from major currencies. Additionally, they expect Bitcoin to become widely adopted for international trade, transforming into a major medium of exchange and a key store of value. Moreover, VanEck believes that BTC could act as a reserve currency for different countries. The team has noted that Bitcoin was designed to replace fiat money and could become a reliable and efficient alternative to current monetary systems, which feature “corruptible human authorities with immutable logic.” VanEck’s Bearish Scenario For BTC While the VanEck team estimated an exceptionally ambitious price target for Bitcoin in 2050, they also presented a more bearish scenario for the pioneer cryptocurrency. Under less favourable conditions, analysts suggest that Bitcoin could hit a price level of $130,314 by 2050. Related Reading: Cardano In The Spotlight: Why The $0.6 Level Is Important To ADA A target of $130,314 over the next 25 years, could be the most bearish scenario for Bitcoin’s value. This contrasts sharply with predictions from analysts at financial firms like Standard Chartered and Bernstein, who forecast that Bitcoin could surge as high as $150,000 by the end of 2024 and $200,000 by 2025, respectively. Despite VanEck’s pessimistic assumption, at press time, Bitcoin’s price is trading at $67,101, reflecting a 4.24% increase in the last 24 hours and another 4.78% spike over the past week, according to CoinMarketCap.

On-chain data shows Bitcoin is retesting a historically significant support level after the latest plunge in the asset’s price has gone through. Bitcoin Is Currently Retesting The Short-Term Holder Realized Price As explained by CryptoQuant community manager Maartunn in a new post on X, BTC has returned to the Realized Price of the short-term holders with its drawdown. The “Realized Price” here refers to an on-chain indicator that, in short, keeps track of the acquisition price or cost basis of the average investor in the Bitcoin sector. When the value of this metric is greater than the cryptocurrency’s spot price, the holders are in a state of net unrealized loss right now. On the other hand, being below the asset’s value implies dominance of profits in the market. Related Reading: Cardano Among Alts Likely To See Price Boosts, Santiment Says In the context of the current discussion, the Realized Price of the entire market isn’t of interest, but that of only a segment of it: the short-term holders (STHs). The STHs include all investors who bought their BTC within the past 155 days. Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin Realized Price specifically for the STHs over the past month: The above graph shows that the Bitcoin spot price has declined towards the STH Realized Price in its latest drawdown. This would mean that the break-even point of the STHs is now being retested. Historically, this retest has proven to be quite important for the cryptocurrency. The line has served as a transition boundary between bearish and bullish periods. Generally, when the asset is in the region above the STH Realized Price, retests of the indicator lead to it reversing back up. Similarly, the line acts as resistance when the coin is under it. The explanation behind this curious pattern may lie in investor psychology. Related Reading: Ethereum Spot ETF Hype: ETH Whale Activity 64% More Than BTC The STHs are the fickle-minded hands of the market, who easily react to movements in the asset. As such, they are naturally sensitive to retests of their cost basis and may make moves when they happen. When the atmosphere in the sector is bullish, the STHs usually look at their cost basis as a buying opportunity. This is why the level acts as support during bullish periods. In times of bearish sentiment, these investors may panic sell at their break-even instead, thus providing resistance to the asset. The Bitcoin spot price had managed to break through this resistance earlier in the month, but with the plunge, it’s now retesting it again. It remains to be seen if support holds here, confirming the prevalence of a bullish mentality, or a dip under it happens, thus suggesting a transition to a bearish market. BTC Price At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at around $64,800, down more than 2% over the past 24 hours. Featured image from Dall-E, CryptoQuant.com, chart from TradingView.com
A crypto analyst has predicted that Bitcoin (BTC), the world’s largest cryptocurrency, is on track to reach an unprecedented $263,000. However, he also emphasized that this bullish surge to new all-time highs is contingent on Bitcoin meeting specific market conditions. Bitcoin Set For Massive Rally To $263,000 In an X (formerly Twitter) post on July 23, a crypto analyst identified as ‘Trader Tardigrade’ revealed that Bitcoin’s current price chart was forming a key technical pattern known as the “Cup with Handle chart pattern.” Notably, the Cup with Handle pattern is a unique technical indicator where the price movement of a cryptocurrency typically resembles a cup, followed by a downward price trend which emulates a handle. This handle often signifies a buying opportunity to go long on the asset. Related Reading: Polygon Network Active Addresses Just Hit A New Yearly High, But Why Is MATIC Price Down? Sharing a price chart illustrating Bitcoin’s Cup with Handle pattern, Trader Tardigrade noted that Bitcoin could witness a substantial rally to a measured target of $263,000 before the end of 2024. The analyst disclosed that for this bullish surge to happen, Bitcoin’s price will have to break above the $68,000 level, which represents the handle part of the Cup with Handle chart pattern. In a more recent X post, the crypto analyst revealed that Bitcoin’s price has reached the upper resistance of the descending channel pattern. This pattern signifies when the price of a cryptocurrency is moving within two parallel trend lines and sloping downwards. Typically, the upper trend line in this pattern acts like a resistance and the lower line acts as a support. The analyst further noted that Bitcoin’s price has successfully reached the upper resistance of the descending channel. However, he disclosed that the resistance was weaker than the lower support, making it easier for the cryptocurrency to potentially breakthrough. Trader Tardigrade also predicts that Bitcoin could undergo a brief period of consolidation before witnessing its next breakout move. The analyst declared that the market was currently in the middle of a bull run, with Bitcoin set to surge even higher until late 2025. Key Support Level Identified For Bitcoin’s Next ATH Bitcoin’s price is currently trading at $64,239, marking a slight decrease of 3.11% in the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap. Despite the cryptocurrency’s struggles to reach new highs, Ali Martinez, a prominent crypto analyst, remains bullish on its future outlook. Related Reading: Machine Learning Algorithm Predicts Shiba Inu Price Will Rise 119% In 5 Days Sharing a price chart depicting Bitcoin’s UTXO realized price distribution (URPD), Martinez predicted that BTC is poised to surge to new all time highs soon. The analyst also disclosed that the $66,000 price mark was a crucial support level for Bitcoin. He added that if Bitcoin succeeds in holding a price level at $66,000, it would set a strong foundation for a potential rally to new levels.

Anticipation is at a high degree as the 2024 Bitcoin Conference draws near, driven not just by technical developments but also by the surprising backing of an influential person: Donald Trump. Related Reading: Is The US Emulating Germany? $4 Million Bitcoin Movement Raises Questions The surprising acceptance of Bitcoin by the former president may change the crypto scene and throw lengthy shadows over political debate and market projections. Here is a look at how Trump’s potential presidency can impact the direction of the crypto. The Bitcoin Turnaround Of Trump Once a strong opponent of Bitcoin, Donald Trump has changed his language dramatically. Even suggesting Bitcoin as a possible reserve currency alongside the US dollar, his campaign has aggressively embraced the digital asset. This fresh zeal differs greatly from his past posture, where he wrote out Bitcoin as a “scam.” In recent discussions, the former president has labeled Bitcoin as “digital gold.” His campaign vows to boost the digital asset’s acceptability. This might give companies and investors more confidence, adding more appeal to Bitcoin. Regulatory Change And Economic Effects Trump’s possible impact on Bitcoin is mostly dependent on his attitude to regulation. Given JD Vance’s pro-crypto posture, Trump’s choice of running mate suggests a likely tsunami of favorable crypto laws. Clearer rules and more institutional Bitcoin investment might find their path in this regulatory climate. Another important element for the dynamics of Bitcoin’s price might be Trump’s economic plans. His platform emphasizes on lowering inflation and enhancing economic stability—qualities that directly influence the value of Bitcoin. Trump’s economic policies were blamed with a somewhat consistent investment environment over his past presidency. Should he be successful in fostering a better economic climate, Bitcoin would gain from more liquidity and investor confidence. Conjecture And Market Responses The market for Bitcoin is driven by speculation, hence Trump’s close relationship with the crypto asset has magnified this influence. Recent events, like the attempted murder of Trump, have demonstrated how drastically market mood may respond to political changes. After the episode, the crypto enjoyed a big surge; meme coins and market mood reflected the great stakes of Trump’s involvement. Meanwhile, post-assassination attempt, the former commander in chief’s ratings against Biden rose somewhat (see chart below). Trump’s erratic political path fuels even more conjecture about his possible administration. The result of the election is still unknown even if Kamala Harris is becoming a strong competitor. Harris’s opinion on Bitcoin might potentially affect market dynamics, therefore adding even another level of intricacy to the future of the currency. Analyses disagree on the possible effect of a Trump win on the price of Bitcoin as the election gets near. While some see a positive trend with Bitcoin maybe skyrocketing above $100,000, others remain wary expecting firmer indications from Trump’s campaign and plans. BTC Price Forecast Technical signs show Bitcoin will rise significantly in the following week. The cryptocurrency is trading 33% below our monthly projection, predicting a comeback if market circumstances improve. Bullish indications like a rising moving average and a stronger Relative Strength Index (RSI) imply BTC might rectify its undervaluation and reach the forecasted price goal. Related Reading: Ethereum Name Service (ENS) 153% Rally ‘Underway’, Analyst Says Bitcoin’s expected three-month rise of 536% and six-month growth of 53% shows investor confidence. Analysts expect a 148% growth in BTC over one year, indicating its long-term potential. Positive trendline breakouts and solid support levels back this projection. Institutional interest and favourable macroeconomic conditions might boost Bitcoin’s price in the long run. Featured image from Getty Images, chart from TradingView

Amid the recent recovery from a significant price correction of over 25% that sent the Bitcoin price to a 6-month low of $53,500, the largest cryptocurrency on the market has since recovered to trade in the $66,000 to $68,000 range despite the start of Mt. Gox creditor repayments. Investors, buoyed by prospects of continued price appreciation, have adopted a HODL stance, opting to retain their assets rather than selling them off following the alleged hack suffered by the Bitcoin exchange in 2011. BTC Hodlers Stand Firm Data from market intelligence platform Arkham reveals that Mt. Gox initiated a significant movement of $2.47 billion worth of BTC to new wallets, facilitating the distribution of 5,106 BTC worth $335 million to four distinct Bitstamp addresses on Wednesday. Concurrently, creditors have commenced receiving their owed Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) through the US-based crypto exchange Kraken, as previously reported by NewsBTC on Thursday. Despite initial concerns of a sell-off akin to the June events, where the German police’s wallet sold over $3 billion in BTC, impacting Bitcoin’s market performance, analytics from CryptoQuant indicate a positive shift. Related Reading: Road To $200: Crypto Pundit Reveals Key Levels To Watch For The Solana Price A notable increase in Bitcoin withdrawals from Kraken post-Mt. Gox reimbursements suggest that affected users opt to hold onto their coins, moving them from exchanges to cold wallets. On-chain data compiled by the firm shows that in the past 24 hours alone, more than 5,000 BTC worth $329 million have been withdrawn from exchanges, contributing to the current consolidation price action and stability for the Bitcoin price over the past few days. Arkham’s data further illustrates Mt. Gox’s ongoing efforts to repay creditors, with over 50,000 BTC transferred from the exchange’s wallet out of a maximum of 142,000 BTC while retaining 90,344 BTC valued at approximately $6 billion in BTC. Echoing the sentiment of CryptoQuant’s findings, Alex Thorn from Galaxy Digital highlights that most creditors are long-term Bitcoin proponents with a profound understanding of the technology. Thorn asserts that their preference to reclaim Bitcoin rather than opt for a USD payout signifies a strong inclination towards holding their assets rather than triggering a sell-off. Moreover, Thorn points out that the substantial capital gains implications of selling Bitcoin could dissuade creditors from liquidating their holdings. Bitcoin Price Analysis At the time of writing, the largest cryptocurrency on the market is trading at the $66,400 milestone, as it is a key support level for the Bitcoin price on its way to retesting the upper resistance walls with an eye on the all-time high of $73,700 reached on March 14th. Adding to the bullish sentiment surrounding BTC’s price performance over the past week, the price may find notable support levels that could prevent further declines in the event of a sell-off by some Mt. Gox creditors in the coming days at $65,000.

Bitcoin started the new week in an uptrend, signaling a return of bullish sentiment among crypto investors. This bullish sentiment has continued to propel the price forward with $70,000 remaining the major target from here. According to one analyst, this recovery signals an entrance into the final wave, which is Wave 5, that could send the BTC price back toward its ATH price. Analyst Says Bitcoin Price Could Hit $72,000 In a TradingView post, crypto analyst Arthur Signals shared an interesting analysis of the Bitcoin price, saying that the cryptocurrency has entered the final Wave 5. The analysis goes through the BTC performance in the month of July, identifying the start of Wave 1 when the price first surged from its lows below $54,000. Related Reading: Polygon Network Active Addresses Just Hit A New Yearly High, But Why Is MATIC Price Down? Moving forward, Wave 2 happened with the crash back down from $60,000 to $56,000. Wave 3 followed right after with an increase above $65,000, while Wave 4 was the decline to $63,000 that was recorded over the weekend. The current leaves only Wave 5, which is usually the most bullish of all the waves. With this final wave, the crypto analyst expects the price of Bitcoin to eventually break above $70,000 and rise toward its current all-time high of $73,000. However, for the BTC price to properly complete this move, it has to break the $68,275 peak that was recorded on Sunday. From here, the Bitcoin price would need to create a new peak to confirm the breakout, which has a $72,000 target from the crypto analyst. World Events That Could Send The BTC Price Flying While the wave formations on the Bitcoin chart paint a bullish picture for the price, there are also other developments that are bullish for the price, and one of those is the US presidential elections. On Sunday, incumbent president Joe Biden announced that he was stepping down from the race, giving his support to Vice President Kamala Harris to run on the Democratic ticket. Related Reading: Solana Leads Crypto Rally As Expectations For A Break Above $200 Grow This development has so far been bullish as the market now expects a victory for Donald Trump, who has been openly vocal about his support for cryptocurrencies. “Biden’s announcement, after some unexpected volatility, has given Bitcoin bullish momentum as the market strengthens its confidence in a Republican election victory,” Arthur Signals pointed out in the post. If Trump does emerge victorious in the election, which is scheduled to be held in November, it will be a positive development for crypto. Trump has declared support for Bitcoin, hinting at using it for treasure purposes. This, in addition to rumors that Trump is considering BlackRock CEO Larry Fink as Treasury Secretary, has sparked bullish expectations for Bitcoin this year.

After a decade-long wait, creditors of the now-defunct Mt. Gox Bitcoin exchange have finally begun receiving their owed Bitcoin (BTC) and Bitcoin cash (BCH) via the Kraken and Bitstamp crypto exchanges. However, this had a notable impact on the cryptocurrency market, contributing to a nearly 4% drop in the price of Bitcoin after users confirmed the deposits to their wallets from the exchanges. Mt. Gox Distributes Millions To Bitstamp And Kraken On an early Tuesday morning, wallet addresses linked to Mt. Gox initiated the transfer of $2.85 billion worth of BTC. According to on-chain data from blockchain analytics platform Arkham, Mt. Gox executed the movement of $2.85 billion in BTC to new wallets with the primary purpose of distributing 5,110 BTC, equivalent to $340.1 million, to four distinct Bitstamp addresses. Related Reading: Ethereum ETFs Witness Stellar Start As Trading Soars; Analyst Sees ETH’s Price Reaching $8,000 In Q4 Bitstamp is one of the five exchanges that collaborate with the Mt. Gox Trustee to facilitate the return of funds to the exchange’s creditors, including Kraken and Japanese exchanges Bitbank and SBI VC Trade. Notably, Mt. Gox still retains possession of 85,234 BTC, valued at approximately $5.70 billion. While some users within the Reddit community have confirmed the receipt of Bitcoin returned by Mt. Gox through Kraken, Bitstamp users have reported not yet receiving their allocations. Kraken had previously announced the successful reception of creditor funds from the Mt. Gox trustee amounting to over $3 billion or 48,641BTC, estimating a timeframe of 7-14 days for the complete deposit of funds into user accounts. Critical Support Zones For Bitcoin In the aftermath of the Mt. Gox payouts, market data analysis platform CryptoQuant has spotted the price correction that BTC has experienced over the past few hours, with the company noting that it has impacted the line of 1-3 month BTC holders. CryptoQuant emphasizes the importance of monitoring support levels, specifically highlighting the $63,600 area, representing the average purchase price of 3-6 month bitcoin holders. Crypto analyst Caleb Franzen, on the other hand, has observed Bitcoin returning to a familiar support zone, which has proven effective. Despite the temporary setback, Franzen contends that Bitcoin has displayed a pattern of higher highs and higher lows in the short term, indicating resilience amidst the current price volatility.

If confirmed, Bitcoin could see a rebound to $67,600, contingent upon the critical support level at $66,000 holding firm. Delving into on-chain data, Martinez underscores a crucial support zone for Bitcoin between $63,440 and $65,470. Within this range, approximately 1.89 million addresses collectively purchased 1.23 million BTC, highlighting the significance of this zone as a key area to monitor in the coming days.

Crypto analyst RLinda has made a bullish case for Bitcoin, suggesting that the flagship crypto could soon hit a new all-time high (ATH). She also provided reasons why Bitcoin could rise to as high as $90,000. Why Bitcoin Could Rise To As High As $90,000 RLinda mentioned in a post on TradingView that fundamental and technical preconditions support further price growth for Bitcoin, which could send its price to as high as $90,000. On the Fundamental side, she noted that the market is waiting for the Spot Ethereum ETFs launch, which would be “another positive lever for the cryptocurrency market.” Related Reading: Solana Leads Crypto Rally As Expectations For A Break Above $200 Grow Furthermore, RLinda stated that Donald Trump, who already affirmed his support for cryptocurrencies, is increasing his chances of being reelected. According to her, the market will react positively if he eventually wins. The crypto analyst highlighted “other local nuances” that could propel Bitcoin to such heights. She noted that other high-ranking US politicians are reconsidering their stance on Bitcoin, and the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is also “smoothly changing its position on cryptocurrencies.” This includes SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce’s recent statement that the Commission is open to reconsidering the inclusion of staking plans for the Spot Ethereum ETFs. BTC From A Technical Perspective On the technical side, RLinda revealed that a classic bullish flag pattern is forming on Bitcoin’s daily chart. She further remarked that at the moment, there is a “high probability” of Bitcoin retesting the strong resistance at $71,700 or even going higher to restest its current ATH of $73,794. She added that only after Bitcoin retests these zones will it become possible for the flagship crypto to “follow the formation of prerequisites for the breakout of global resistance” at $73,800. RLinda mentioned that $67,250 and $71,750 are resistance levels that Bitcoin should look to break. Meanwhile, $63,800 and $59,300 are support levels that the flagship must remain above. Related Reading: Crypto Market Rebounds From Lows, But Why Are Cardano Holders Suffering Losses? Furthermore, RLinda revealed that Bitcoin’s current price range is favorable for a resistance breakout, which she claimed will “open a new way to the nearest resistance.” In the short term, she expects Bitcoin to break out from the $67,250 resistance level and experience further growth to between $71,700 and $73,800. With Bitcoin already retesting the $67,250 resistance level, RLinda provided an update on her trade idea. She highlighted a cup-and-handle pattern on Bitcoin’s weekly timeframe. The crypto analyst stated that this bullish pattern is in the last stage of “its formation before realization.” From the chart she shared, this cup-and-handle formation supports a potential price surge to $90,000 for Bitcoin. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at around $67,300, up almost 1% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com
The crypto market is again all shades of green, with Bitcoin and altcoins enjoying significant rallies. Crypto analyst Capo of Crypto has provided further optimism, suggesting that these tokens will still make more massive moves to the upside. “The Best Is Yet To Come” For Bitcoin Capo of Crypto opined in an X (formerly Twitter) post that the “best is yet to come” for Bitcoin and altcoins. He noted that Bitcoin is pumping, having reclaimed the $60,000 range as support. The crypto analyst added that altcoins also seem to have found their local bottom, meaning they are well-primed for massive rallies to the upside. Related Reading: Crypto Market Rebounds From Lows, But Why Are Cardano Holders Suffering Losses? With Bitcoin also back above $65,000, it seems that it is just a matter of when and not if before the flagship crypto reclaims the $70,000 range. Capo had previously mentioned that reclaiming the $65,000 level would be the next bullish confirmation for the flagship crypto. The analyst added that the market should expect high prices once that happens. As to how Bitcoin could rise, Capo stated that the main target would be the liquidity zone between $74,000 and $76,000. Bitcoin rising to these price levels would mark a new all-time high (ATH) for the flagship crypto. Crypto analyst Rekt Capital shared a similar sentiment with Capo, suggesting that Bitcoin’s successful retest of the $65,000 resistance level would send it back above $70,000. Bitcoin rising back above $70,000 is believed to be where the real fun begins, as crypto analysts like Michael van de Poppe had previously mentioned that the bull run will continue once the flagship crypto is back above this price level. Crypto analyst Crypto Kaleo had also recently advised market participants not to get shaken out. He stated that the market is still heading “way higher” and that a little more patience is needed before the “fun really starts.” “Huge” Altcoin Season Is Brewing Crypto analyst Mkybull Crypto stated in an X post that a huge altcoin season is brewing. He claimed that this cycle might be similar to the explosive altcoin season rally in 2017, as altcoins’ current price action shares a similar price action to that period. Mikyull Crypto added that the fakeout made many believe the altcoin season for this cycle had been written off but suggested that isn’t the case, as something similar happened in the 2016 post-halving cycle. Related Reading: CBOE Global Markets Lists Spot Ethereum ETFs, Confirms Launch Date Interstingly, Capo stated that he is most bullish on altcoins. He alluded to the Spot Ethereum ETFs, which are expected to begin trading this week.

Market analyst and Bitcoin (BTC) maxi Fred Kreuger has revealed five top reasons investors should purchase the premier cryptocurrency. In a video post on X on Saturday, Kreuger described Bitcoin as a favorable short-term and mid-term investment, backing the asset to remain profitable over the next 12 months. The price of Bitcoin has recently returned above $67,000 following a 0.58% increase in the last day. This slight gain allows the crypto market leader to maintain its positive performance over the last week. Related Reading: Bitcoin Option Traders Are Betting On A Price Breakout Ahead Of US Elections: QCP Capital Investing In BTC Now Is A Massive Buy, Kreuger Says According to Fred Kreuger, investors should be looking to acquire Bitcoin for the following reasons. Firstly, the analyst highlights the pro-crypto stance of the former US President and Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump. Kreuger describes Trump as a crypto ally stating the politician is pro-BTC, pro-mining, and also open to the adoption of the digital asset as a strategic reserve. Like many enthusiasts, he reckons that the election of Trump could provide the much-needed support of Bitcoin from the US government. Moving on, Fred Kreuger states there is a 100% chance the US Federal Reserve will implement a rate cut in September which will grant investors leverage to seek volatile assets such as Bitcoin. Moreover, if Trump emerges as president in November, anticipate further rate cuts, projecting an estimate of 300 basis points. Furthermore, the Bitcoin maxi also discusses the potential impacts of the spot Bitcoin ETFs. According to Kreuger, these ETFs are still in their rollout phase with traditional financial titans such as Morgan Stanley and Wells Fargo yet to offer them beyond their high-net-worth clients. Eventually, Kreuger believes these ETFs, currently worth over $17 billion, will be added to the general trading platforms of these banks which could result in higher levels of inflows. Another reason for Kreuger’s bullish stance on Bitcoin is the crypto bull market cycle which he postulates is already halfway gone. However, in the remaining one-and-a-half years of this cycle, Kreuger believes Bitcoin could potentially double its current market price based on historical price data. However, this projection is not set in stone, with the market analyst stating BTC could produce a 4x or 6x price gain.

With a net worth of $99.2 billion, the analyst theorizes that Dell’s potential voyage into the BTC market should serve as a bullish signal for investors. At the time of writing, Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $67, 207 with a 14.41% gain in the last week. Meanwhile, the asset’s daily trading volume is down by 49.29% and valued at $18.86 billion.

The Bitcoin price has quickly recovered from its recent dip to a six-month low of $53,500 on July 5th, reclaiming the $66,000 level and setting its sights on retesting its all-time high of $73,700 reached in March. This resurgence comes as major airlines, medical facilities, corporations, and police forces worldwide grapple with a massive information technology (IT) disruption affecting Microsoft’s cloud computing services. Bitcoin Price Unaffected By Global IT Outage Cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike shed light on the cause of the outages, attributing them to a “routine software update” that went wrong. To reassure the public, CrowdStrike emphasized that the incident was not a security breach or cyberattack. The company then quickly issued a new software update that automatically repaired some affected computers. However, some systems required manual reboots and patching, resulting in significant delays. Related Reading: ETH Derivates Volume Have Flatlined Despite Spot Ethereum ETFs Approval, What’s Going On? Microsoft, on its part, announced the recovery of its 365 apps and services late Friday morning, though some individual customers may still experience residual impact. Interestingly, amid the chaos caused by the IT outage, cryptocurrency prices remained unaffected, capturing the attention of US Senator Cynthia Lummis. Known for her pro-crypto and Bitcoin stance, Senator Lummis took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to highlight the resilience of the Bitcoin price amid widespread cyber outages, stating: “Do you know what form of currency hasn’t been affected by widespread cyber outages? Bitcoin. Vires in Numeris.” Meanwhile, speculation surrounding Bitcoin’s potential as a strategic reserve asset for the United States has been intensifying. Anticipation has been further fueled by the upcoming appearance of former US President Donald Trump in Nashville on July 27, who some predict will announce the largest cryptocurrency on the market as a key to the US economy, potentially providing a massive boost to the Bitcoin price. Sell Signal Emerges As the Bitcoin price continues its recovery, crypto analyst Ali Martinez has detected a significant development on the Bitcoin daily chart as the TD Sequential indicator has generated a sell signal. However, the analyst noted that the signal can be invalidated if Bitcoin manages to close above the crucial threshold of $67,500. The cryptocurrency’s current price stands at $66,666, reflecting a 5% increase within the past 24 hours and an impressive surge of over 16% in the past week alone. Sustaining a close above the level identified by Martinez becomes paramount to avoid a potential correction on its path towards the highly anticipated $70,000 milestone.

While Bitcoin’s upward trajectory is strong, it may encounter resistance at various price levels before reaching its target noted by bearish thresholds at $67,600, $68,380, and $69,700, which could pose challenges to Bitcoin’s price rise. Conversely, Bitcoin can find support from its 200-day exponential moving average (EMA), currently positioned at $62,600, which represents a long-term trend indicator, often regarded as a robust support level.

An analyst has pointed out how Bitcoin is back above the cost basis of the short-term holders, a sign that can be bullish for the asset. Bitcoin Is Back Above The Realized Price Of Short-Term Holders As explained by CryptoQuant community manager Maartunn in a new post on X, BTC has reclaimed the Realized Price of the short-term holders. The “Realized Price” here refers to an indicator that, in short, keeps track of the average cost basis of the investors in the Bitcoin market. When the value of this metric is greater than the cryptocurrency’s spot price, the average holder in the sector can be assumed to be carrying some unrealized profit. On the other hand, the indicator being under the BTC price implies the dominance of losses in the market. Related Reading: XRP Surges 39% As Sharks & Whales Push Supply Share Past 85% In the context of the current discussion, the Realized Price of the entire userbase isn’t of interest, but that of only a part of it: the short-term holders (STHs). The STHs refer to the Bitcoin investors who purchased their tokens within the past 155 days. This cohort makes up one of the two main divisions of the BTC sector based on holding time, with the other part of the market being known as the long-term holders (LTHs). Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin Realized Price specifically for this cohort over the past year: As is visible in the above graph, the Bitcoin spot price had plunged under the Realized Price of the STHs last month, meaning that this group had gone into a state of net loss. After spending some time below the line, though, the cryptocurrency has risen above the metric with the latest rally, thus bringing this cohort back into profit. “This is usually a very bullish sign,” notes Maartunn. The chart shows that the last time the asset broke back above this level after an extended stay below it was last October. This surge back above the line kicked off a run that would eventually result in the coin setting a new all-time high (ATH). As for why BTC breaking above the STH Realized Price has historically been something bullish, the answer lies in investor psychology. The STHs, who are relatively inexperienced hands, can be sensitive to price movements. More specifically, they are likely to show a reaction when their average cost basis undergoes a retest. When these investors are bearish, they may decide to sell when the price rises to their cost basis, as they may worry that the surge won’t last. Similarly, they react by accumulating further instead during bullish periods, as they could see their cost basis as a profitable point for buying more. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bullish Signal: NVT Golden Cross Suggests BTC Oversold As BTC has been able to surge past this line recently, it wouldn’t appear that the STHs are offering resistance right now, and thus, a bullish sentiment is still dominant among them. BTC Price Bitcoin had recovered above $66,000 yesterday, but the coin has since seen some pullback as its price is now down to $64,800.

Crypto analyst Rekt Capital has provided insights into the Bitcoin future trajectory. Based on his analysis, the flagship crypto might not yet be ready for its next leg up, which could see it climb back above $70,000. Bitcoin Not Yet Ready To Establish $65,000 As New Support Rekt Capital claimed in an X (formerly Twitter) post that Bitcoin is not quite ready just yet for a successful retest of the $65,000 level as new support. For the crypto to establish $65,000 as the new support level, the analyst stated that it would need a similar restest like the one which happened sometime in May earlier this year. According to Rekt Capital, this will confirm a break back into the $65,000 to $71,500 region. Related Reading: PEPE Explosion Imminent: Analyst Predicts Price Will Rocket To $0.00004128 ATH Bitcoin establishing $65,000 is crucial as that will also confirm that the downtrend is over as the flagship crypto still risks dropping to the $60,000 range while still below $65,000. Meanwhile, as Rekt Capital noted, Bitcoin holding above the $65,000 support would mean that it is ready to revisit its previous top above $70,000. Bitcoin rising above $70,000 and reaching as high as $71,500 will inspire confidence among investors that the bull run is well underway again. Crypto expert Michael van de Poppe had before now highlighted the $70,000 range as the level for Bitcoin to beat in order to surpass its current all-time high (ATH) of $73,750. Crypto analyst Altcoin Sherpa also recently highlighted three scenarios that could play out for Bitcoin from its current price level. He claimed that the flagship crypto could dump to $63,000 and “return the pump,” dump to $60,000, and return the pump or dump to $60,000 while enjoying some relief bounces and then “die” after it dumps to $60,000. However, the analyst is most hopeful that Bitcoin just break above this level without any pullback and rise to $70,000. What To Expect From BTC Heading Into The Latter Parts Of The Cycle Crypto analyst Dann Crypto shared his expectations for Bitcoin heading into the latter parts of this bull run. He claimed that Bitcoin will enjoy a run-up heading into the US Presidential elections due to the easy narrative of a potential crypto President and Vice President. He expects this rally to also happen thanks to a potential first-rate cut and just the “overall excitement” after Bitcoin had ranged for about four months. Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Predicts 450% Move For Shiba Inu To Reach New All-Time High Daan Crypto also alluded to the Spot Ethereum ETFs, describing them as a “bit of a wildcard” since they could “accelerate the rally,” but it all depends on how much demand these ETFs enjoy. Once this Bitcoin rally is done, Daan Crypto expects that the market will experience another local top with this likely to happen during the new year. The crypto analyst predicts that the final rally in this bull run will come in the latter half of 2025, as part of the 4-year cycle. Daan Crypto noted that this 4-year cycle has always worked and that there is no reason why it shouldn’t work this time around. He warned market participants to not get fixated on a particular target as the market top for Bitcoin and instead, advised them to be fluid.
