Popular crypto analyst, known as Kaleo, predicted that Bitcoin might soon enter a new phase of price discovery, where it trades at record levels never seen before.
Kaleo highlighted Bitcoin’s historic price movements, noting that since the 2012 halving, its value has skyrocketed over 500,000%, from $12 to nearly $70,000.
Since the 2012 halving, Bitcoin is up more than 500,000% from $12 to nearly $70K.
The majority of that price discovery happened in three windows that lasted a grand total of less than two years.
The other ~10 years? BTC was either moving sideways or down.

These dramatic increases have occurred in three distinct periods, each following a halving event, with other times marked by relatively stable or declining prices.
He observed that Bitcoin’s current price behavior is similar to past patterns after previous halvings, suggesting that another significant rally could be on the horizon. The most recent halving, which cut mining rewards in half, occurred in April.
However, Kaleo warned that Bitcoin might first dip to around $40,000 before potentially reaching new highs. He advised that, despite possible short-term declines, this could be an ideal time to invest, as substantial upward movement might be approaching.
Kaleo also forecasted a potential drop in Ethereum (ETH) to about $2,400 before an expected rise to $4,600, indicating similar future price movements.
The U.S. government’s plan to establish a Strategic Crypto Reserve has sparked a lively debate in the crypto community, with even well-known critics like Peter Schiff joining the conversation.
David Sacks, the White House’s top official on crypto policy, clarified that the Trump administration has not considered selling gold reserves to boost its Bitcoin holdings.
The approval of the U.S. strategic Bitcoin reserve was anticipated to have a significant impact on the market, but it hasn’t triggered the expected rally.
Bitcoin is experiencing a temporary phase of price consolidation, but many experts, including Cory Klippsten, are confident that the cryptocurrency has a strong chance of hitting new all-time highs by June 2025.
