The post Will BTC Price Hit ATH in 2023? Analyst Predicts Timeline For Bitcoin Bull Run appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

The highly anticipated Bitcoin halving event, scheduled for April 2024, has created a buzz in the crypto community. Many analysts and investors have predicted that leading up to the Bitcoin halving, which occurs approximately every four years, the price of BTC would enter a period of consolidation. Analyst Credible Crypto’s expectations suggest that Bitcoin’s price would range between $20,000 and $40,000 for approximately 12 months.

A Bitcoin halving is when the reward for mining new blocks is cut in half. Miners receive 50% fewer bitcoins for verifying transactions. This happens approximately every four years until a total of 21 million bitcoins are generated.

Expectations: “The Bitcoin halving is in April 2024. Expect $BTC to go sideways between 20-40k for about 12 months which is when we accumulate as much Bitcoin as we can. Once the halving hits, we start our next bull run to 100k+ into 2025. WAGMI.”

Reality: BTC makes a new ATH…

The next Bitcoin halving is expected to occur in April 2024, around the time when the number of blocks reaches 740,000. At that point, the block reward will decrease from 6.25 bitcoins to 3.125 bitcoins. The exact date of the halving is not known because block generation time can vary, but on average, a new block is generated every ten minutes.

Contrary to these expectations, the year 2023 witnessed a remarkable turn of events in the Bitcoin market. Instead of entering a sideways trend, Bitcoin had a remarkable run at the beginning of 2023. The coin experienced a notable surge since December 31st, marking a partial recovery from the significant decline it faced in 2022. However, currently, the token is encountering challenges as its value hovers around the $30,000 range.
