His accompanying chart highlighted an ascending channel, which showed that BTC could hit this target if it reached the upper part of the channel.  Interestingly, other crypto analysts have provided higher targets for the Bitcoin price in this market cycle. Crypto analyst Tony Severino recently predicted that BTC could reach as high as $321,000 in this cycle. He highlighted a potential head and shoulder pattern on BTC’s chart and stated that the flagship crypto could reach this target if the pattern were valid.  He also raised the possibility of the Bitcoin price rallying to $345,000. Severino explained that BTC could reach this ambitious price target if it touches the upper boundary of the primary uptrend channel over the last eight years or thereabouts. Meanwhile, for his more conservative targets, he predicted that Bitcoin’s price could top between $158,000 and $191,000 in this market cycle.  Why BTC Hasn’t Reached Its Market Top Yet Amid the bearish signals pointing to a market top, crypto analyst Ali Martinez outlined several reasons why the Bitcoin price still has more room to grow in this bull run. First, he noted that cycle shifts typically occur when BTC surpasses 2.4x the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA), which is currently at $184,600.  Related Reading: Bitcoin Long-Term Holders Officially Enter Into Greed Territory, Is This Good Or Bad For Price? Furthermore, Martinez stated that the Mayer Multiple suggests the Bitcoin price has more upside, with a potential market top of around $182,000. From a technical perspective, the crypto analyst highlighted Bitcoin’s cup-and-handle breakout, which points toward a target of $276,400. Lastly, he alluded to the halving cycle theory, which suggests that BTC could reach a market top between May and October 2025.  At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $104,700, down almost 1% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
