Every week, we get tons of comments and DMs asking about BTC price targets for this cycle, so I thought it’d be a good time to share insights - enjoy! 👇 Bitcoin recently gapped up past the neckline resistance of a 4-year inverse head-and-shoulders pattern. By technical measure, this could theoretically take BTC to $397K, though that might be ambitious for this cycle based on market psychology. But, it’s still within the broader uptrend channel 🤏 A lot of analysts are throwing out targets like $250K or $350K. But let’s keep it real - no one can predict with 100% certainty. You can either lean on these predictions or focus on building a smart exit plan to avoid being “exit liquidity” for big institutions 🎯 This cycle is unique, with massive funds and even countries stepping into the market. But remember - they’re thinking long-term, while most of you, retail investors, tend to think short-term. The large funds often buy BTC over-the-counter (OTC), which doesn’t impact the price much. It’s primarily retail traders, smart money, and on-chain activity that create the hype. So, this cycle’s run-up will likely be driven by retail interest, as in previous cycles. There’s a high chance that BTC will peak between May and October of 2025, so keep an eye on those months. My personal targets are : TP 1️⃣ - $111K (Target is based on a math formula that’s a bit lengthy, but if you’re interested, I’d be happy to share it in the comments) TP 2️⃣ - $138K (Mid-channel border) TP 3️⃣ - $173K (Bull trap point, where I’ll reduce my holdings and keep only 10% in the market) We’re already seeing BTC profit on major dips flowing into other top cryptos like ETH, SOL, DOGE, XRP, and TRX, then, it will trickle into mid-caps and lower-cap coins. This creates plenty of chances to earn and maximize profits. The best exit strategy isn’t to sell all at once, but to “ladder” your exits over time. Be smart. Have a plan 📈 From: Crypto Universe

As leverage accumulates and market positioning becomes extreme, a sell-off inevitably follows. Back in Q1, that led to a 7-months consolidation. Monitoring funding rates is crucial, as they signify overheating - and with rates recently hitting 40% 2 days ago, similar to February's $62k BTC price, a surge to $100k+ is possible.
