What forecasts do cryptanalysts give for Bitcoin?

Bitcoin’s rise in mid-October sparked discussions about how long the crypto market will be able to demonstrate positive dynamics. Each side has its own arguments.

We tell you why BTC is growing and what forecast investors give for the Bitcoin exchange rate against the backdrop of positive market dynamics.

Why is Bitcoin growing?

On October 16, 2024, Bitcoin immediately reached $68,400, the level at the end of July 2024, but after that the coin corrected. As of the time of writing, BTC is trading at $67,339, which is only 8% below the absolute maximum, which was recorded on March 14 this year at $73,750.

There are several reasons for Bitcoin’s growth. Among them are the following:

  • expectations of a further reduction in the Fed’s key interest rate, which may increase the attractiveness of such high-risk assets as crypto;
  • rescheduling payments to Mt. creditors. Gox, thanks to which the threat of a BTC sale in the near future was eliminated;
  • expectations of an injection of liquidity into the banking sector from China, some of which may end up in crypto;
  • the approaching US presidential election, which may be won by crypto-loyal Donald Trump;
  • growing interest in Bitcoin ETFs from institutional investors, which forces issuers of instruments to buy free BTC;
  • a decrease in the supply of bitcoins on exchanges against the backdrop of the April 2024 halving, which contributed to an increase in the shortage of BTC in the market.

The growth of Bitcoin was also supported by the expectations of market participants. The fact is that crypto often shows positive dynamics at the end of the year. Investors speculated that 2024 would be no exception.

Some members of the crypto community pay attention to the fact that from a technical point of view, BTC has not yet managed to break through the resistance of the descending channel, which means it is too early to talk about “Bitcoin’s flight to the moon.”
