A well-known crypto analyst predicts that Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are on the verge of a major breakout following a wave of liquidations.
Over $1.58 billion worth of leveraged positions were wiped out in a single day, pushing Bitcoin down to $86,141—its lowest level in three months.
Despite the downturn, the analyst, known as Capo, told his Telegram audience that a sharp rebound is highly probable.
He suggests that this recovery will be driven by a short squeeze, where a sudden price jump forces traders betting against the market to close their positions, fueling further upward momentum.
However, he cautions that once this surge loses steam, another significant drop could follow before the market sets the stage for new all-time highs.
Capo anticipates Bitcoin climbing to $100,000 before potentially retracing to $80,000, paving the way for a fresh bullish cycle.
As for Ethereum, he expects it to mirror Bitcoin’s pattern, eventually surging to $5,000.
Bitcoin has once again demonstrated its resilience in the face of a turbulent market, outperforming the Nasdaq 100 index since the start of the year.
Bitcoin startup funding has seen a notable surge in early-stage investments, with pre-seed rounds increasing significantly since 2021.
Genius Group, a Singapore-based AI firm, has hit a legal snag in its plans to expand its Bitcoin treasury.
