Analyst Notes: Cryptocurrency analyst Michael Van de Poppe said, "total market capitalization for altcoins is finally breaking out of a range of 500+ days. Retest took place and found sufficient amount of support, which means that Q1 is likely bringing a 2x on the Altcoin market capitalization."
Bitcoin is set to soar higher, according to analyst Credible Crypto, who believes that the current price point of around $43,500 makes it "absolutely primed" for growth. "It really does not get much better than this," one of the posts summarized. "Some final accumulation going on here before the push to 50k+ imo."
