The crypto market capitalization has surged back above $3 trillion, displaying the growing strength within the space. While the volume remains restricted within a range, the rise in the market capitalization suggests a notable rise in the bullish strength as the Bitcoin price rises past $97,000. Despite this rise, the token is expected to maintain a strong ascending trend and eventually reclaim $100K in a short while from now.
The BTC price has consolidated for over a week and triggered a breakout above the range with capital influx and bullish sentiments swirling around $100K. On-chain data shows whales and the long-term holders are buying while the exchange reserves continue to drop. This generated a supply squeeze that pushed the price above the consolidated range. However, the price is required to rise above the ‘broken parabolic slope’ that may pave the way for a new ATH as suggested by crypto veteran Peter Brandt.
Peter Brandt shared a historical chart of Bitcoin where the BTC price followed a parabolic curve in 2021 and formed a new ATH. Currently, the price has dropped below the curve, and a rise above the curve could trigger a strong bull run. The price is predicted to reach $125,000 to $150,000 by August-September 2025, but the analysts warn of a 50% or more correction after marking a new ATH. Here could be why the analyst foresees a massive drop.
The open interest plays a major role in determining the mindset of the investors. The rise in open interest suggests the longs are paying the shorts, which indicates that longs have become dominant compared to shorts. Unfortunately, the open interest is still negative despite the price approaching $100K.
The data from Coinanalyze shows that the Bitcoin funding rate has gone negative, while the predicted funding rate average is also negative. This suggests the shorts are still dominant over the longs, which circulates bearish clouds over the BTC price rally. However, the analyst believes that only the destruction of the USD may prevent the massive correction. Therefore, it would be interesting to watch the next Bitcoin (BTC) price action.
