Amid the renewed strength recently shown by Bitcoin, Michael Van De Poppe, a recognized cryptocurrency analyst and trader, has offered an intriguing prediction for BTC, highlighting that the crypto asset is likely to reach the $300,000 threshold in this bull cycle.
Bitcoin price aimed at unprecedented highs this cycle
Over the past month the price of Bitcoin has been consolidating and has not been able to sustain its rise past the new peak of $73,000. However, things could change soon as Michael Van De Poppe expects the currency to soar in the near term.
His prediction coincides with the expectations surrounding the coming one Bitcoin halving is expected to take place in less than 12 days, fueling optimism within the crypto community.
According to the expert, the largest cryptocurrency asset by market capitalization is still facing significant resistance. Nevertheless, if Bitcoin manages to break out of this zone, the coin could witness a progression to new all-time highs in the coming months.
Considering that BTC Having reached the $70,000 price level prior to the halving, Poppe believes it will likely rise to unprecedented levels, specifically a top of $300,000 in this bull run.
The message read:
Bitcoin still faces crucial resistance. If this breaks through, we will see a continuation towards new all-time highs. Bitcoin at $70,000 before the halving. Probably $300,000 this cycle.
Poppe highlighted that Bitcoin’s price returned to the $70,000 level this weekend. As a result, he has pointed to bullish indicators currently prevalent in the crypto landscape.
The analyst also noted that the strength of the cryptocurrency markets has now surpassed our perceptions, and dips in altcoins provide opportunities for good entries. Furthermore, BTC’s price action demonstrates the potential to reach a new all-time high before the halving, and the shift in favor of altcoins is underway.
Altcoin season starts in weeks
Poppe is super bullish on one ‘altcoin season’. However, it is important to note that the value of altcoins has often coincided with shifts in Bitcoin’s supremacy. But even though Bitcoin’s dominance is still at its peak before the halving, Poppe thinks these coins still have a lot of momentum.
He advocates that a new altcoin season will undoubtedly start in the coming weeks. “We’ve always had one, we’ve seen Meme coins, the Solana (SOL) ecosystem and AI,” he stated.
The expert’s statement suggests that the Solana ecosystem, AI projects and meme coins have led the altcoin market in recent months. Michael Van De Poppe has thus argued that crypto initiatives that prioritize the tokenization of Real-World Assets (RWA), the Ethereum (ETH) ecosystem and the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) are likely to emerge in the coming alt season be expanded. Then the way is cleared for alts in this cycle.
At the time of writing, the altcoin’s total market did not include Bitcoin and Ethereum was valued at $753.47 billion. This indicates a 2% increase in market capitalization over the past 24 hours.
