So. It's been 6 weeks today and obviously we are not quite in range of $70-80k yet, but I'm happy I was correct on the general direction. Currently sitting just below the ATH of ~$52,500.
We reach $57k mate.
In the last 6 weeks a lot of things have crystallized and become more clear about this 2021 bull run, though the future remains anything but certain. So far, judging by the speed and trajectory, it is somewhere between the steep run-up in the first half of 2013, and the slower grind upwards throughout 2017.
Yes, prediction model base on 2017 bull run is $100k.
While 2013 model points us to a higher price $288k
One thing is reasonably for sure, this upward momentum is far from over, and it's starting to look like although we're not at $80k yet, we may hit $100k much sooner than I originally thought. One clue for this can be found in altcoins. Take LTC for example, which is now sitting at about 65% of its ATH. I would be absolutely shocked if BTC tops out in this bull cycle with LTC not making a new ATH. I would put that possibility at less than 10%, and furthermore I find it extremely unlikely that LTC would not hit at least $1k before BTC peaks, probably much higher. Other strong alts are also sitting below ATH, with ETH only recently passing its old high.
I can't say about LTC but for bitcoin, yes this bull run is unstoppable and can continue up to the end of the year and we will see what prediction model will repeat this year, 2013 or 2017.
Another piece of the puzzle is the growing institutional FOMO, and then there are more stimmy checks coming probably late March in the US. All in all I can see upward pressure pushing us through an insane March and April, with $100k easily on the table.
Big companies and institutions are what driving this bull run and then we have FOMO. Speaking of stimulus package:
