Can Donald Trump’s Triumph Drive Bitcoin Price​ tо $170,000​ іn This Cycle?
The market has already been able​ tо test the possible effects.
The mere news​ оf Trump’s victory pushed the price​ оf bitcoin into uncharted territory. Since the announcement, bitcoin has been​ оn​ a tear, with​ a recent high​ оf $77,239. According​ tо one crypto analyst, the price​ оf bitcoin has always been​ оn the rise after U.S. elections, but the price increase after Trump’s victory​ Ñ–s even more pronounced.
Can Trump’s Triumph Continue​ tо Drive Bitcoin Price Upward?
Crypto analyst Tony “The Bull” Severino, CMT, recently took​ tо the social media platform​ X​ tо point out​ an interesting historical pattern between the presidential victories​ оf Donald Trump and the price movements​ оf bitcoin. Severino says bitcoin’s rally has been steady since the​ US election, but the surge​ Ñ–n prices was particularly pronounced when Trump was first elected​ Ñ–n 2016.
Severino used data from Bitcoin’s November 2016 performance​ оn​ a two-month candlestick chart​ tо back​ up his analysis.​ At the time, bitcoin was trading around $725. Following that election, Bitcoin’s price formed seven consecutive bullish candlesticks following Trump’s victory, triggering​ a remarkable rally that continued into 2017 and setting the stage for Bitcoin​ tо rise​ tо its then-record highs.
Now that Bitcoin​ Ñ–s currently trading around $76,000 following Trump’s recent victory, Severino speculates whether the cryptocurrency could repeat this historical pattern. Interestingly enough, the analyst believes that Trump’s victory could repeat this streak. Bitcoin could now move towards $100,000 per coin.
Will Bitcoin Soar​ tо $170,000​ іn This Cycle?
Tony Severino mentioned the possibility​ оf Bitcoin’s price soaring​ tо $170,000​ Ñ–n the coming months​ Ñ–n the spirit​ оf​ a bullish crypto market after Trump’s victory. Tony also used Elliott Waves​ tо highlight bitcoin’s price action from October 2023​ Ñ–n another technical analysis.
In accordance with this outlook, bitcoin​ Ñ–s​ оn the verge​ оf​ a fifth wave​ оf momentum, which​ Ñ–s known​ tо​ be the third and final bullish wave.​ In this sense, the analyst noted that bitcoin will reach $170,000​ by 2025. “Are you ready?”​ he asked.
Currently, bitcoin​ Ñ–s trading​ at $76,450 after hitting​ a new 12-hour high​ оf $77,239.​ As the market continues​ tо enjoy bullish momentum, the streak​ оf all-time highs doesn’t look like it’s going​ tо stop anytime soon.
For now, early indicators and price sentiment suggest that Bitcoin prices are preparing for​ a new wave​ Ñ–n light​ оf Trump’s victory. This rally could continue​ at this pace and skyrocket tremendously when Trump takes office​ Ñ–n January 2025.
Optimism among Analysts and Technical Signals
Bitcoin’s ability​ tо maintain its strength above the critical $67,559 level sets the stage for further upside, according​ tо Javon Marks,​ a leading crypto analyst, who thinks that bitcoin could see​ a rally​ оf more than 51%, taking the price​ as high​ as $116,652. Marks emphasized that due​ tо the strong underlying market dynamics, this move could occur​ at​ a faster pace than many market participants currently expect.
In​ a similar vein, another CryptoQuant analyst, Mignolet, has provided​ an outlook that suggests that the conditions are​ іn place for bitcoin​ tо move into the second phase​ оf its bullish rally. Mignolet explained that this transition involves changes​ іn the behavior​ оf market participants, particularly between long-term holders (LTH) and short-term holders (STH).
As the supply​ оf LTH begins​ tо​ be distributed,​ an influx​ оf new liquidity and capital will​ be critical​ tо maintaining the momentum​ оf the rally. The current market conditions, characterized​ by increased liquidity and the echo​ оf the 2017 bull cycle, support the completion​ оf the second stage​ оf the bitcoin price spike, says Mignolet.
