Anticipation of a Bullish Trend

Independent analyst Jelle echoed this sentiment, drawing a pattern with BTC’s previous cycles. He predicted that once Bitcoin breaks its 2021 all-time high, it could reach $100,000.
Contrary to these expectations, Bitcoin was down by 3.71% at the time, trading at the $67,000 level.
Technical Indicators Show Bullish Sentiment

During a recent livestream with Jack Mallers, founder and CEO of Strike, Anthony Pompliano questioned Mallers about Wall Street’s preference for Bitcoin over other assets.
Mallers responded that Bitcoin is the best expression of fiat debasement, being the antithesis of fiat currency. He suggested that Bitcoin could reach between 250k to a million in this cycle.
