A leading crypto analyst advises investors to wait for Bitcoin to drop to the low $40,000s before buying, suggesting this could be the best entry point for the upcoming market rally.
Markus Thielen from 10x Research told Cointelegraph that targeting Bitcoin’s price in the low $40,000s might set up investors for the next major bull run. Bitcoin was last seen in this price range in early February.
Currently, Bitcoin is trading at $57,400, up 4.25% in the past 24 hours. Analysts including Timothy Peterson and Crypto Rover predict that Bitcoin could fall to $40,000 soon. David Gokhstein also views a potential drop to $40,000 or $50,000 as an ideal buying opportunity.
Thielen expressed doubts about holding Bitcoin long-term, noting that recent market volatility and the lack of high returns compared to U.S. stocks make it a less attractive option.
He recommends setting a stop-loss around $54,000 to manage risks, especially given the recent outflows from Bitcoin ETFs and their underperformance compared to their launch price.
Despite significant investments in Bitcoin ETFs, the cryptocurrency has recently fallen below $50,000, approaching its early 2023 levels.
Bitcoin is firmly trading above the $100,000 level, drawing renewed optimism from investors while also raising caution among analysts watching for potential turbulence ahead.
Metaplanet has stepped up its commitment to Bitcoin by securing $21.25 million through its latest bond offering, the company’s 14th in a series of ongoing capital raises tied to its aggressive crypto strategy.
Bitcoin has reached a major benchmark in its battle against traditional financial benchmarks, with its value relative to the S&P 500 hitting a record high of 17.725 on May 8.
A well-regarded crypto analyst believes that Bitcoin (BTC) could experience a final, explosive rally before the current market cycle concludes.
