Analyst Predicts Bitcoin To Reach Groundbreaking $100,000 Milestone
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) is on the verge of a significant technical breakthrough, potentially hitting the $100,000 mark, according to one analyst.
What happened: Bitcoin is poised for a significant technical breakthrough if it surpasses its previous high of around $73,800.
Technical analyst JC Parets of AllStarCharts noted that maintaining levels above $70,000 increases the likelihood of Bitcoin reaching $100,000.
“The idea was that we [Bitcoin] We were going to hit $47,000, take a break, hit $70,000, take a break, then finally hit $100,000,” Parets said on a “Trends with Friends” podcast last month.
Parets pointed out that Bitcoin has followed this pattern so far.
“We got to $47,000, we took a break. We had a blast, we got to $70,000, we’re taking a break. As if it were completely normal,” he added.
A target of $100,000 represents a potential 40% increase from current levels.

The cryptocurrency has rebounded significantly over the past year, recovering from a severe bear market in 2022. Bitcoin is now forming a “cup and handle” pattern, a bullish technical formation. If this trend materializes, Bitcoin could potentially reach a measured price target of around $130,000.
Why is this important: The potential breakout comes after a period of significant volatility for Bitcoin. At the end of May, pseudonymous trader and crypto analyst Rekt Capital provided insight into the status and future prospects of Bitcoin. Rekt Capital noted that Bitcoin was no longer in the “danger zone” but warned of a possible drop of 13% compared to its current value.
Rekt Capital explained that Bitcoin typically enters the “danger zone” after a halving event, which reduces miner rewards. Despite these concerns, Bitcoin has shown resilience and has been on an upward trajectory, indicating strong market confidence.
As Bitcoin approaches the $100,000 mark, it is essential to consider the broader context of its recent performance and the technical patterns that have emerged. Investors and analysts will be closely watching whether Bitcoin can maintain its momentum and achieve this milestone.
