A major investment firm's director of global macro, jurrien timmer, declaring the bitcoin bottom at $60,000 carries significant weight for institutional and retail investors, potentially boosting confidence and accumulation.
Fidelity investments is a highly reputable financial institution, and jurrien timmer is a director, lending strong credibility to his analysis.
Timmer explicitly states his belief that $60,000 marks the bottom of the current cycle and anticipates a period of consolidation followed by a new cyclical bull market that could lead to new all-time highs.
While a 'few months of backing and filling' (consolidation) is expected in the short-to-medium term, the overall outlook is for a new cyclical bull market, suggesting a sustained long-term upward trend.

"A decline to 'only' $60k would be relatively shallow for a Bitcoin winter, but as the commodity currency matures, its ups and downs should become less dramatic," he said. Calling the bottom Timmer appears to be confident that the worst of the selling is likely over. The next accumulation phase is expected to set the stage for a new bull run. "It’s anyone’s guess whether $60k is the low, but my guess is that it is, and that after a few months of backing and filling, the next cyclical bull market will get underway." Timmer pointed to technical models as the basis for his optimism. "Based on the mathematical harmony of past cycles, which of course are not a guarantee of future cycles, my sense is that any future waves could eventually take us to new highs." Undefeated gold Timmer also pointed to the divergence between "digital gold" and physical gold during the recent volatility. Bitcoin caved to heavy liquidation pressure, but traditional gold proved its mettle as a safe-haven asset during the liquidity crunch. "While both silver and Bitcoin took it on the chin last week (at least until Friday), gold held in like a champ," Timmer observed. #Bitcoin Price Prediction
