Bitcoin’s Next Big Move: $139,000?

A crypto analyst, TechDev, is predicting a massive Bitcoin price surge, potentially reaching $139,000! This bold prediction is based on an interesting pattern observed around US presidential elections.

Election Cycles and Bitcoin’s Rise

TechDev noticed a correlation between US presidential elections and Bitcoin’s price performance. Looking back:

  • 2012: Bitcoin started at $10 on election day and soared to $245 a year later (a 22.7x increase).
  • 2016: Bitcoin was at $710 on election day, reaching $7,200 a year later (a 10.12x increase).
  • 2020: Bitcoin sat at $13,588 on election day, eventually hitting $61,300 a year later (a 4.51x increase).

The pattern? Each cycle shows a significant price jump, with the increase roughly matching the previous cycle’s growth, plus an extra 44.5%.

The $139,000 Prediction

Applying this pattern to the recent election, where Bitcoin was around $69,400, TechDev projects a 4.51x increase (like 2020) plus the extra 44.5%, leading to a potential price of around $139,000. This is quite a leap!

A Bullish Market?

This prediction gains extra weight considering the current political climate. For the first time, the US has a president considered pro-crypto, potentially boosting Bitcoin’s appeal. Bitcoin’s price has already reacted positively since the election, showing a strong upward trend.

What’s Next After $100,000?

Another analyst, Ali Martinez, weighs in on what might happen once Bitcoin hits the $100,000 mark. He sees similarities to December 2020’s price action and predicts:

  • A short-term spike to $108,000.
  • A slight dip to $99,000.
  • A continued uptrend towards $135,000.

This aligns remarkably well with TechDev’s $139,000 forecast. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading near $97,000, already showing impressive growth.
