Crypto Casey: potential for historic bull run after post-election recovery
The host of Crypto Casey puts forward the view that Bitcoin’s post-midterm resurgence in the US could be the start of a bull cycle to rival any in crypto’s past.
Before the elections, the analyst points out, Bitcoin was pushed below $80,000 and made a low of around $75,000; it has since made a swift recovery to $80,000 only to ebb once more. One need only look at equities to see the pattern: for 12 months following a US midterm, they have tended to rally, and Bitcoin often follows the Nasdaq.
Crypto Casey concedes there are political unknowns, not least with Democrats in Congress and the prospect of new regulations, but President Biden’s ability to veto makes any major change in policy unlikely. On the monetary front, market makers are looking for a 25 basis point increase from the Fed that might well fuel a Santa Claus rally. Then again, with AI phishing on the rise and security at exchanges a concern, a sound approach to crypto storage is called for.
Crypto Love: possible short squeeze or drop to $60,000 before long-term rally
Randall of Crypto Love suggests that Bitcoin is at a crossroads, with the prospect of a short squeeze driving up prices or a return to new lows as a prelude to a more prolonged ascent.
In Randall’s view, the open interest in Bitcoin is at a level that has previously signaled a strong short squeeze. At the same time, he warns of the possibility of a 2015-style scenario, where after a run to new highs, there is a correction to make new lows; if that happens, a dip to $60,000 before heading for $110,000 is not out of the question.
On the bullish side, Randall is optimistic about what the indicators are showing. The MVRV ratio turning from red to green indicates the bear market is over and a new cycle is underway. History would seem to support a price of $1.5 million per Bitcoin in the coming cycle, and there are outside estimates from Bitwise that put the target anywhere between $1.6 and $3.6 million by 2036.
Crypto World: long-term uptrend holds, but $75,000 support in focus amid short-term weakness
The Crypto World channel shows Bitcoin in a weak position on the three-day chart, with some short-term bearish pressure to contend with, even though the longer-term outlook remains positive.
On lower timeframes, the asset has faced difficulties recently, and the three-day chart indicates a short-term bearish divergence, says the analyst. Yet the weekly Superchain indicator is green, which supports the positive long-term trend in place since the end of June.
In terms of levels, there is resistance at $80,000 to $82,000 and support around $75,000; should that level break, one could expect a move down to the $65,000-$67,000 range. The channel emphasizes that US equities and the crypto market are closely linked, so developments in the broader market will influence where Bitcoin goes. For the author, the short term is a mixed proposition, but the long-term trend is undeniably bullish.
Bitcoin Magazine: historically mild bear phase could signal upcoming bull market for BTC
Dave Ripley, the co-CEO of Kraken, has put forward the view that Bitcoin is in a bear market of only historical mildness and that its moves past $80,000 may well be a prelude to a more bullish phase, says the host of Bitcoin Magazine.
Ripley argues that although by the numbers it is a bear market, nothing like the price action above $80,000 has been seen in such a period before; it might be an indication of a bull run beginning. He also notes a certain maturity and stability in the market, which is reflected in the presence of sophisticated capital markets players now making up part of the user base at Kraken.
There is also the matter of institutional interest and the building of infrastructure in crypto, evidenced by Kraken’s move into traditional banking with the Saldo Bank acquisition and a broadening of its offerings to include tokenized equities, stablecoins, and AI payments. All of this, along with the use of the X-Tokens platform and AI, is regarded as a positive influence on future growth and supports a bullish stance on Bitcoin.
КРИПТО ИЛЬЯ | ОБЗОРЫ 🍋: BTC faces risk of liquidation amid prolonged range and bearish signals
Krypto Ilya | Reviews has put forward the view that Bitcoin is in danger of being liquidated on a large scale, with bearish indicators appearing in BTC and major altcoins.
The analyst points to 78 days of Bitcoin price action confined to a 15% range as something that could set the stage for sizeable liquidations. He sees the formation of bearish patterns on the charts of BTC and altcoins such as VVV; there, the bounces are losing momentum and a support level may give way to some sharp moves to the downside. If Coinbase shares lose their $140 support, that would be seen as a sign of risk-off sentiment.
If Bitcoin turns bearish, the author anticipates a localized rally to run short sellers out of their stop-losses in the $76,650 to $78,600 area. However, broader market forces could have larger funds and investors looking at AI firms showing better profits, with crypto VC money from A16Z or Sequoia Capital heading in that direction. For crypto and other high-risk assets, there is also the matter of the US macro inflation report due Tuesday, which is a risk event not to be overlooked.
Lark Davis: BTC may trade between $75,000–$87,000 as monetary policy eases
Lark Davis, citing CoinShares’ James Butterfill, suggests that Bitcoin is the preeminent asset for institutions and has room to grow if monetary policy is relaxed.
Yet investors are treading carefully, as the median institutional allocation to crypto stands at 1.3%, according to Butterfill—a figure Davis highlights. That kind of conservatism is not likely to abate before next year; most institutions show little inclination to make a sizeable increase in their crypto holdings.
For an ideal risk-return profile, Butterfill has suggested a 4% allocation in Bitcoin. Inflows to crypto ETPs have only recently reached $11.5 billion, even with the Binance hack and other such setbacks. As for altcoins, Davis notes there are considerable inflows into SEC-approved ETPs for Solana and XRP, though Bitcoin remains the leader. And if monetary policy becomes more accommodating, Butterfill envisions a rally that could see BTC trade between $75,000 and $87,000 through the end of the year, a view Davis shares.
The Modern Investor: bitwise predicts $1.6M Bitcoin target by 2036 amid institutional demand
Bitwise, the well-known analytics firm, has put a $1.6 million long-term price target on Bitcoin for 2036, notwithstanding the headwinds in the market, The Modern Investor reports.
In its coverage of Bitwise’s bullish stance, the outlet observes that institutional investors and companies alike have not been deterred from adding to their Bitcoin holdings by present-day market conditions. There is a view among experts on the channel that the asset may be worth $1 million by 2029 at the earliest; major banks such as JP Morgan have made similar projections for considerable gains in the years ahead.
As for the strength of demand, The Modern Investor points to how quickly crypto prices have rebounded in the wake of the Binance hack, while also drawing attention to the ways corporations are making use of blockchain. Such developments are what analysts see as the impetus for Bitcoin to hit $1.6 million in 2036, a move that would alter the global financial order in no small way. It is an unusual cycle, the publication says, given the height of the price forecasts.
Michaël van de Poppe: BTC eyes $100,000 next year as risk factors ease post-elections
Michaël van de Poppe believes that the Democrats’ success in the US midterms will underpin a robust recovery for the crypto market, and that Bitcoin in particular is set to grow.
In his view, the outcome of the election has restored confidence in the markets by giving the US economy a greater sense of balance than a Republican win might have. The crypto markets have been resilient in the face of uncertainty surrounding the vote and the $6B hack at Binance; they are making a comeback after being under pressure.
Van de Poppe points to the decline in oil prices and US 10-year bond yields, which have come down from 5.3 percent to 4.8 percent, as evidence of waning economic and geopolitical risk and as an indication that interest rates will be lower. Such conditions should attract more capital to crypto and altcoins. He has put a $100,000 price target on Bitcoin in the year ahead once it has consolidated. Additionally, with AI regulation in flux and the use of crypto payments in the AI industry on the rise, he anticipates an increase in adoption.
Crypto Rover: liquidity squeeze could trigger sharp moves as open interest surges
Bitcoin’s open interest is on the upswing in the face of scant volatility, a combination that the Crypto Rover host sees as a harbinger of a liquidity squeeze and attendant price gyrations.
In the view of this analyst, Bitcoin is currently in an uncharacteristically quiet period of low volatility, something that has been a precursor to more substantial moves in the past. The 22% rise in open interest from its last trough indicates traders are positioning themselves for a breakout.
Yet despite this, the asset is still forming new daily highs and lows within a parallel channel as the recent downtrend continues. The expert cautions that if Bitcoin breaks below the $75,000 liquidity level, there is the prospect of further downside; one must consider the five consecutive red candles, which is uncommon. With $85,000 as the next resistance point, the analyst’s focus is on the $72,000 to $74,000 area to enter a trade and be prepared for any volatility a liquidity event may bring.
Thinking Crypto: bitcoin eyes $90,000 by year-end after potential dip to $72,000
Tony Edward, who hosts Thinking Crypto, puts a $90,000 price tag on Bitcoin for the close of 2023, but cautions that in the immediate future the market has a way of being misleading.
He would not be surprised to see it come down to $72,000 as part of a correction; the RSI is near oversold levels, which to him is an indication of a potential bounce. Then there is the NASDAQ, which has a history of dipping below its 200-day moving average prior to a turnaround, something that could give Bitcoin’s ascent some impetus.
As for the macro picture, Edward sees his share of risks and catalysts. Should Elizabeth Warren take the helm of the Banking Committee, one can expect regulatory headwinds. The Clarity Act is not slated to go through until 2027 and perhaps on terms less favorable to crypto. But there are upsides: a change in the U.S. administration may open the door for 401k plans to include crypto, and with Russia having given the green light for retail investors to put their money into BTC, ETH, and USDT, that could be a major boon for the industry.
Krown: potential drop to $68,100 if $73,300 support breaks
An examination of the historical record going back to 2011 has Krown, host of the channel, setting a $73,300 floor on Bitcoin that could be breached.
In his research, Krown has found that in 63 of the 188 months since 2011, Bitcoin has gone below the prior month’s low; in a quarter of those instances, the drop was more than 22.25%. Should it go below the September figure, the analyst sees $68,100 as a likely target.
Krown is cautioning that once $73,300 is broken, there could be more downside to come. The numbers from history bear this out: 8% of all declines were at least 10.5% below the previous monthly low. In the view of the analyst, a move toward $68,100 may be underway.
CryptoWendyO: potential further BTC drop amid market volatility and downtrend
In the course of his appearance on CryptoWendyO, Brad Garlinghouse argues that the crypto market is in a downtrend and Bitcoin may still have further to fall. The Ripple chief executive notes Bitcoin is trading at around $77,000 at present, but cautions that one should not be surprised by further downward movement given how volatile things are. “The market will decide what an asset is worth,” he says, putting the responsibility for valuation on the free market.
Garlinghouse has no illusions about the current state of the overall crypto market, but he is confident of a recovery in due time. His remarks put a bearish slant on the near-term outlook for Bitcoin, even though the main topic at hand is Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin.
Altcoin Daily: new crypto bull cycle could push BTC and ETH to new all-time highs by 2027
In the view of analyst Tom Lee, a crypto growth cycle of significant magnitude is at hand, and with it, Bitcoin and Ethereum may set new all-time highs by 2027, says Altcoin Daily.
Lee, who has 30 years of experience as an analyst and is the founder of Fundstrat, believes that the upcoming bull cycle is likely to be among the biggest ever. He sees the financial industry’s increasing adoption of blockchain and the tokenization of assets as the driving forces behind such growth, with Ethereum being no exception.
The current cycle is still in its early stages, Lee contends, and he points to the way Ethereum has shrugged off even serious hacks without any effect on its price as evidence of its resilience. To dismiss the rally as a bubble now is, in his opinion, to miss out on considerable gains. He does not rule out $250,000 for Ethereum if it becomes the collateral of choice for tokenized assets, but he cautions investors against excessive leverage. As for what poses the greatest danger to the market, Lee says it is the US Federal Reserve.
