Benzinga - by Khyathi Dalal, Benzinga Staff Writer.

Bitcoin’s (CRYPTO: BTC) performance continues to be a topic of debate among analysts, with one foreseeing fresh peaks within two weeks, while another predicts a deeper washout.

What Happened: Pseudonymous crypto analyst DonAlt believes that Bitcoin technically washed out below $60,000 by briefly dropping to $59,500, and he anticipates a potential further decline.

However, the mini washout caused a bounce, and if this bounce reclaims $68,000, he warns that bears could find themselves in a precarious position. “Until then I’m assuming it’s a tired complacency bounce,” he added.

On the other hand, trader Bluntz Capital predicts a new all-time high for Bitcoin within the next one to two weeks. According to his analysis, Bitcoin is currently in wave 5 of a larger wave 3, with several more legs higher still to come. He estimates the crypto king to peak at around $120,000 this cycle.

Why It Matters: IntoTheBlock data indicates a 28.1% surge in large transactions volume to $29.79 billion, while daily active addresses increased by 12.8% to 579,040.

While these analysts’ perspectives are closely monitored by traders, it is essential to conduct thorough research and maintain a cautious approach to investment strategies. Their analyses could influence market sentiment and potentially impact Bitcoin’s price movements in the coming days.
