Bitcoin Price To Potentially Hit New ATHs Today: ‘Hope Stage’ Keeps Investors on Edge

Published by

In an exciting turn of events for cryptocurrency enthusiasts, Bitcoin has officially broken through the $70,000 mark, achieving a higher high on the weekly chart. This milestone has generated buzz in the market.

While the wait for altcoin movements has tested patience, several altcoins are starting to show promising signs. Dogecoin has gained momentum, and analysts are eyeing specific altcoins poised for a breakout. As the excitement builds, many are left wondering if today will be the day Bitcoin breaks its all-time highs. 

Experts predict that Bitcoin will first climb to around $71,000 to $72,000 before facing a rejection. This could see prices peak around $85,000 before experiencing a pullback. Such fluctuations are expected to lead to a temporary decline in Bitcoin’s market dominance, followed by a resurgence in altcoins. Analysts expect Bitcoin to form a slight consolidation pattern, with support around $70,000. This consolidation could lead to a push through previous highs. 

The “Hope Stage”

On Crypto Banter’s The Sniper Trading Show, the analyst said that currently, the market is experiencing what experts describe as the “Hope Stage.” Traders are optimistic about breaking all-time highs, but this stage often comes with uncertainty. As enthusiasm builds, previous doubts tend to diminish, leading to increased excitement and FOMO (fear of missing out) among investors.

Retail Interest Remains Low

Interestingly, despite Bitcoin reaching the same price level as it did in March, retail interest has not yet returned to previous highs. In March, Bitcoin was priced at $71,000, and the Coinbase app ranking was at 20. Today, the price remains the same, but the app ranking has dropped to 482, indicating a significant decrease in retail engagement.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is up by more than four percent and is trading close to the $72k levels.
