Bitcoin will break out to $300kIt’s been just revealed that the trader Tone Vays believes that Bitcoin (BTC) could be gearing up for a massive eruption to the six-figure level and go as high as $300,000.
In a new strategy session, Vays said recently that Bitcoin could explode between 792% and 1,238% from current prices in the next bull market.
“So this is my projection. There’s two paths. We can hit this line [diagonal resistance] twice like we did in the last cycle [2021]. [Or], we can hit this line once near the end like we did in the prior cycle [2017]. If we hit it near the end, we’re going to go higher [$300,000]. If we hit it twice, we’re going to go lower [$200,000].”
