    Bitcoin is “Recession-Proof” and Will Hit $200K Soon, Claims Analyst

    Story Highlights
    • Bitcoin has experienced significant growth in the past week, exceeding the $100,000 mark and showing strong bullish momentum.

    • A technical analyst predicts Bitcoin's price could surpass $200,000 soon, driven by investor excitement and the market overcoming a key resistance zone.

    • Bitcoin will remain unaffected in a recession and could even benefit from the instability in traditional markets.

    Bitcoin is on an impressive rise, with the price soaring by about 6.44% in just five days. This sharp upward movement has many wondering: Is the cryptocurrency gearing up for something big? Experts, like technical analyst Gert van Lagen, believe Bitcoin could soon break through the $200K mark.

    But whatโ€™s driving this sudden surge, and how far could it go? Letโ€™s dive in and explore the exciting possibilities.

    Bitcoin Price Breakthroughs

    On December 5, Bitcoin broke the $100K barrier for the first time. However, between December 9 and 10, the market saw a 4.48% correction, pulling Bitcoin down to about $96,548.50. But by December 11, the market rebounded with a massive single-day rise, pushing Bitcoin back above $100K. Since then, the price has surged by at least 10.30%.

    Understanding the Bitcoin Surge

    The sharp rise has sparked growing excitement among long-term cryptocurrency investors. The strong upward movement is giving more confidence to buyers, driving Bitcoinโ€™s momentum even higher.

    According to Lagen, Bitcoin has moved past the โ€œre-accumulation phase,โ€ a key resistance zone in technical terms. This breakthrough is an important sign that the market is ready for further growth.

    Bitcoinโ€™s Strong Start to 2024

    IBitcoin had a standout first quarter of 2024, with a return of +68.7%. While the second and third quarters were quieter, the current bullish trend suggests that Bitcoin may outperform its first-quarter results in the final quarter of the year.

    Looking ahead, Lagen is optimistic about Bitcoinโ€™s future, predicting that it could reach $200K in the near term. This outlook reflects a growing belief that Bitcoinโ€™s position in the financial market will continue to strengthen, even as traditional markets face challenges.

    Bitcoin Stands Strong – Even In a Recession

    Lagen also warns that a global economic recession could be on the horizon within the next two and a half months. However, he sees Bitcoin as a strong alternative asset, especially during times of market uncertainty. Lagen believes that a recession would have little to no negative impact on Bitcoinโ€™s price.

    Even with a potential global recession, the cryptocurrency marketโ€™s momentum remains strong. As traditional markets face uncertain times, Bitcoin continues to stand out as a promising investment.
