Analyst Notes
Crypto analyst Michael Van de Poppe predicts that Bitcoin will experience some weakness and may not break crucial levels. “If that’s not going to break, I’m assuming we’ll test $25,700-26,000 for any long positions.”
Benjamin Cowen noted that in the past 30 days, the supply of ETH has increased. Due to a decrease in demand as tourists exit the market, the amount of ETH being burned has also decreased.
“I suspect ETH will return to being deflationary again, but it might take more accommodative monetary policy for that to happen.”
Pseudonymous analyst Kaleo suggests that Bitcoin may potentially experience a significant surge, with the chart indicating a price target of $38,000.
