Bullish Bitcoin (BTC) – related predictions keep pouring in the crypto space. A recent one comes from Nicholas Merten who is a popular crypto trader and the owner of YouTube crypto channel DataDash.
He just said that according to a historical analysis for Bitcoin’s previous boom and bust cycles, a new bull run would take the most important digital asset to the price of $68,000.
He also said that the BTC rate of return over time would probably keep naturally decaying, as reported by The Daily Hodl.
Bitcoin can hit $68,000
He said that each bull run would be bringing about 1/5 return from the previous run. Here are his exact words:
“Bitcoin’s initial burst from $2 to around $1,000 represented a 51,000% return. The next bull run saw a 9,400% return, as Bitcoin went from around $200 to more than $19,000. By that logic, a new Bitcoin bull run would boost the price of BTC by about 2,300%, to around $68,000,” the online publication writes.

Author Clem Chambers just said that BTC is gradually taking the place of gold.
In a recent article published on Forbes, the author addressed a bullish BTC price prediction and said that we are definitely out of the crypto winter.
Forbes’ author also made a price prediction regarding the most important digital asset in the crypto space.
“Now bitcoin is going up, and I will be saying “It’s going up.” I think it will hit $6,000 soon and go on to $10,000. At $10,000 I will look to recalibrate. For now, the crypto winter is over.”
