Bitcoin’s correction may be far from over Brandt warned that Bitcoin might still be headed for a deeper correction, as its previous bull markets have all ended the same way. Advertisement He noted that these bull markets have often been preceded by a 75% or greater price correction.

Bitcoin at $250,000 still possible Thus, Brandt issued a serious warning that the crypto market should prepare for a deeper correction, which is what history has delivered every time if the curve breaks like in other cycles. However, long-term investors may not need to panic, as Brandt further assured that Bitcoin’s long-term potential remains intact and a major bull run is still waiting ahead. Despite the slowing exponential growth, Peter Brandt predicted that the next major bull cycle could still carry BTC toward the $200,000 to $250,000 level. However, the massive rally will not happen in the near term, and Bitcoin might need to fall as low as $50,000 first to achieve this target. #Bitcoin #Bitcoin Price Prediction #Peter Brandt
