Bitcoin Price Surge Coincides With Tether’s $8B USDT Minting
  • Tether has injected 6B USDT into the crypto market, fueling BTC rally hopes.
  • Satoshimeter at the midpoint, signaling Bitcoin‘s bull run may continue.

Bitcoin has been making waves following the recent U.S. Presidential elections. The Bitcoin price has surged more than 20% in a week.

However, historical cycle analysis and Satoshimeter reflected that Bitcoin has more room for upside. The token’s price could hit the $200,000 to $500,000 range.

Recently, Tether has injected $6 Billion USDT and an additional 2 billion USDT into Tron and Ethereum. That adds up to its recently issued 8 billion USDT in 8 days.

Out of which, 6.067 billion USDT has already entered the cryptocurrency market. Moreover, the majority of it goes into crypto exchanges like Kraken, Binance, Coinbase, etc.

Such inflations in liquidity can be a significant factor for Bitcoin. Furthermore, it can increase the BTC price. Looking at the figures in the report, Kraken has held the larger percentage. On the other hand, Binance and Coinbase have held the other.

The kind of injections depicted by such strategies is a picture of a significant liquidity enhancement. The enhancement could be either in anticipation of propped-up trade activities or to support speculated price changes in the market.

Bitcoin Bull Run Underway, Analyst Claims: Here’s the Outlook

A crypto analyst, Aurelien Ohayon, has compared the price cycles of Bitcoin from 2014 to 2017. The cycle is expected to take place from 2022 to 2025. This could create room for a new bull run.

Identifying these three phases proves that all phases go through a stunning price rise. That was indicated by an index of 1, 2, and 3 for each cycle.

When writing, the Bitcoin price traded at 89,540, noting an intraday decline of over 1.20%. On Wednesday, it hit an ATH of $93,434 and retraced over 4.39%. It witnessed profit booking from the highs.

The analysis showed that BTC had formed an inverted head and shoulders pattern. It has registered a breakout during the daily timeframe.

The neckline hurdle of $80,000 was breached, and the Bitcoin price traded in uncharted territory. Current positioning was strongly bullish, and a higher high swing was replicated.

The token stayed above the key EMAs. Also, it represented a bullish price action in the long term. It recently breached the horizontal neckline of $75,000 and triggered a 6-month range breakout.

Bitcoin’s Journey to Peak Still Unfinished, SatoshiMeter Shows

The Satoshimeter chart shows that, at this point, the BTC crypto is still in the middle of the market cycle. However, there could be a possibility of it getting up significantly.

Going by the current value of 13, there are no signs of a toppish market. Contrary to any suggestion, Bitcoin price‘s last significant bullish surge might have already been seen.

Historical records showed that values around 1.6 on the Satoshimeter have been regarded as the bottoming points of bear markets. This happened in 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2022. The Bitcoin market always hits its all-time high on the Satoshimeter.
