Market Dynamics Point to $150,000 Per Bitcoin, Says John Divine
Bitcoin’s trajectory has been a hot topic in financial circles, and predictions for its year-end value are more diverse than ever. Roundtable host Rob Nelson recently delved into these predictions with John Divine, Digital Asset OTC Trading at BlockFills, who remains firm in his bullish stance on Bitcoin, predicting it will hit $150,000 by December 31.
Nelson opened the discussion by asking Divine if his crystal ball predictions had changed. Divine confidently reiterated his prediction that bitcoin would hit $150,000. He highlighted several bullish indicators, including recent comments from SkyBridge Capital’s Anthony Scaramucci and Standard Chartered’s bullish outlook.
Divine emphasized the significant impact of market dynamics, noting that traditional stocks are currently at all-time highs while bitcoin is lagging. He highlighted the systematic trading strategies that are intertwining the performance of the S&P 500 and bitcoin, suggesting that bitcoin’s lag could ultimately lead to a significant rally once certain market conditions are met.
He explained that bitcoin’s path to $85,000 could be rapid once it breaks the $72,000 mark, potentially reaching $100,000 before the US elections. Divine attributed this potential growth to various market players, including miners, systematic traders, and speculators, who could drive bitcoin’s price higher in a high-activity environment.
Divine concluded by noting the lack of significant capital deployment during recent pullbacks, suggesting that the next wave of investment could push bitcoin to new all-time highs. He remains adamant in his prediction, anticipating a robust market response that could see bitcoin hit its projected target by the end of the year.
