Brandt’s assertion comes at a pivotal moment for the cryptocurrency market, as Bitcoin’s price hovers in a critical range, prompting speculation about potential future movements.

Bitcoin’s price has been consolidating in a tight range since March 26, oscillating between $68,369 and $71,789. Meanwhile, investors and traders continue to closely watch for signals of potential new moves.

Bitcoin (BTC) traded around $70,000 at the time of writing, showing little change in the past 24 hours.

Bitcoin halving now 23 days away

Bitcoin’s reward halving, a quadrennial event due in April, will lower mining rewards to 3.125 BTC from 6.25 BTC. according to OKLink, the estimated date for this much-anticipated event is April 23, 2024, with a present countdown of 23 days.

With Bitcoin’s reward-halving event on the horizon, there are speculations that this could spark additional inflows into U.S.-based spot BTC ETFs, propelling values into the six digits in the coming months.

In an earlier prediction, Peter Brandt expects the ongoing Bitcoin (BTC) bull market to peak at $200,000.

Michael van de Poppe, a cryptocurrency analyst, anticipates a Bitcoin price top of $300,000-$600,000 in this current bull cycle, citing a strong pre-halving surge that outperformed past cycles.

In the very short term, crypto analyst Ali predicts a potential increase of 4.44%, targeting a price of $74,760 should BTC maintain its position above the 200 EMA and surpass the neckline resistance at $71,580 as Bitcoin shows a head-and-shoulders formation on the 30-minute chart.
