$60,000 Dip for BTC Next?
As the image in the post above depicts, Bitcoin broke out of a perfectly formed triangle pattern which led to a breakout to hit lower targets. Analysts noticed that the weekends seem to be the more action-packed trading days for crypto this year. No doubt, many factors have led to the declining price of BTC, a huge factor being Trump’s continuously escalating tariff announcements and the incredibly high liquidations in the US stock market.
Despite the latest dip, most analysts saw the downward movement of BTC price is not over. According to the responses to the posts above, most analysts are certain that the price of BTC will fall to the $72,000 to $73,000 price range next. Meanwhile, a handful of seasoned traders expect BTC price to hit $60,000 next and mark this as the possible worst-case scenario. However, they remain certain that the downward pattern will eventually lead to a breakout which will bring BTC price to the next ATH target between $116,000 and $125,000.
