Bitcoin’s recent price rally has revived bullish sentiment among crypto analysts, with some predicting potential highs of $200,000 or more in the coming months. The world’s largest cryptocurrency has seen a significant recovery, up about 21% since its recent low on July 5.
Several technical indicators and on-chain statistics point to continued upward momentum for Bitcoin.
Glassnode co-founder Negentropic noted that Bitcoin has turned several key levels into support, including the 200-day exponential moving average (EMA) at $58,448 and the $62,600 area embraced by both the 50-day and 100-day EMAs.

The next significant levels that analysts are watching are $69,000 and $74,000. Trader Tardigrade has identified a bull flag pattern on the daily chart, suggesting a potential move to $74,000. However, Negentropic emphasized that Bitcoin must first regain its previous record high of $69,000 before confirming a rally to new highs.

Despite resistance around $65,000, Bitcoin’s price action remains bullish according to chartered market technician Aksel Kibar. He noted that Bitcoin’s reluctance to pull back from this resistance level is “very bullish long-term” and could indicate a pending breakout.
This is the 5th month that $BTCUSD has not retreated from the strong resistance around 65K. I see this as a very bullish long term.
Staying at a resistance and not intending to sell is usually a sin of pending breakout. pic.twitter.com/9ajs8yAy07

Some analysts make even more optimistic projections based on historical patterns. Pseudonym analyst Cryptonary pointed to Bitcoin’s miner capitulation cycles, suggesting that the end of the current capitulation period could lead to a price peak of $223,000. This projection is based on an exponential decay model and historical price increases after halving.
Historically, the end of Miner Capitulation periods after Bitcoin Halvings have led to significant price increases for Bitcoin in the following months and year.

Michael van de Poppe, founder of MN Capital, said that if Bitcoin moves above and holds $65,000, backed by “consistent institutional inflows,” it could climb to $100,000.
The largest amount of net inflow for #Bitcoin since the end of June!
Despite the negative news, Bitcoin’s price is stable at $65K with consistent institutional inflows.

Meanwhile, independent analyst Cryptocon drew parallels between the current market structure and previous cycles, suggesting that Bitcoin could be preparing for “the most significant cyclical price action” once it turns the previous all-time high into support.
Everything about #Bitcoin’s price action continues to point back to cycle 2.
Multiple strikes against ATH resistance in 2017, just like we saw in 2024.
Then after that, a support retest that comes before all the major cyclical price actions. (green boxes)

Supporting these bullish projections are significant inflows into US spot Bitcoin ETFs. Data from Farside Investors shows that these ETFs saw their highest day of inflows since early June, collecting $422 million worth of BTC on July 16 alone. Since July 5, more than $1.91 billion has flowed into these funds, potentially providing strong support for Bitcoin’s price.
Although the overall sentiment is bullish, Bitcoin still faces challenges. The cryptocurrency must definitely break and hold above the $65,000 level to confirm the bullish outlook. Additionally, as with all financial markets, unforeseen events or regulatory changes can affect Bitcoin’s trajectory.
