So, what are the expectations of cryptocurrency analysts following this surge?
Rekt Capital, one of the most renowned analysts in the market, shared their expectations in a post published after the records were broken.
According to this analyst, if the price of BTC follows its pattern from 2020, it could reach $96,500 by the end of this year.
Furthermore, the analyst evaluated the current bull rally in relation to the rise wave of BTC that typically occurs after a halving. Rekt Capital mentioned that historically, the post-halving surge occurs after approximately 214 days, leading to new records. However, in the current case, it has been approximately 205 days since the halving.
Rekt Capital argued that this new price record, which arrived 9 days earlier than anticipated, suggests that there is approximately 9 more days of momentum potential in the current cycle.
