Bitcoin Nears $67K: Fresh Highs Within Two Weeks Or 'A Tired Complacency Bounce?'

Bitcoin’s (CRYPTO: BTC) performance continues to be a topic of debate among analysts, with one foreseeing fresh peaks within two weeks, while another predicts a deeper washout.

What Happened: Pseudonymous crypto analyst DonAlt believes that Bitcoin technically washed out below $60,000 by briefly dropping to $59,500, and he anticipates a potential further decline.

However, the mini washout caused a bounce, and if this bounce reclaims $68,000, he warns that bears could find themselves in a precarious position. “Until then I’m assuming it’s a tired complacency bounce,” he added.

On the other hand, trader Bluntz Capital predicts a new all-time high for Bitcoin within the next one to two weeks. According to his analysis, Bitcoin is currently in wave 5 of a larger wave 3, with several more legs higher still to come. He estimates the crypto king to peak at around $120,000 this cycle.
