Prominent trader Henrik Zeberg has predicted that the price of Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency, could skyrocket to as much as $123,000. After completing a long consolidation phase, Bitcoin will eventually surge above its current all-time high of roughly $74,000, which was achieved back in March, according to Zeberg’s prediction. Following this breakout, Bitcoin is then expected to reach the aforementioned bullish target in less than three months due to very powerful upward momentum.
