What does this mean for Bitcoin, and can it regain its momentum to a record high? There are a few factors to consider as we try to answer those questions.
Bitcoin (BTC) price slipped as it headed towards a new high on Monday, trading at $69,558 (BTC/USD). The coin had climbed as high as $71,462 on Friday before the setback.
What does this mean for Bitcoin, and can it regain its momentum to a record high? There are a few factors to consider as we try to answer those questions.
Primarily, we are considering the coin’s recent performance, as it has hovered around $72K for the past few days, and it does not look like a fluke. It appears that Bitcoin has established a new support level that is higher than previously.
Today’s sub-$70K level should not alarm investors much. This is an opportunity for them to buy in on Bitcoin even more and take advantage of the dip. Even those who are buying in at this level (which is more elevated than it has been in recent months) should still see a good return on their investment.
We estimate that Bitcoin will reach a record high very soon. While we thought it would come in the first couple days of November, that may not happen now. Today’s setback may keep the coin from reaching the new milestone for a bit longer.
What Will Push Bitcoin to a Record High?
We could see some upward momentum for the token before the day is over. There are several economic reports due later today for the US sector. These include unemployment claims, personal income, personal spending, and more. These October reports are likely to be mixed, since the US economy is not looking rosy across the board, but there may be enough positive takeaways to make Bitcoin soar.
We also expect Bitcoin to recover a nice boost whenever the next interest rate cut drops. The Fed should announce that cut soon, and the cut could easily come next week. That would be after the October economic reports have come in and been processed and analyzed. Those will help the Fed decide on when the rate cut should happen and how much it will be.
Bitcoin is also gaining a lot of traction from the election, with both major parties talking about crypto and how they will support it and keep legislation moving in such a way as to protect crypto growth. What investors should be worried about there, though, is that after the election is settled, crypto may no longer be an important talking point and may not take priority for a while.
Bitcoin could definitely reach $80K by the end of 2024, but a few of these factors will have to work in its favor for that to happen.
