Following the fourth Bitcoin Halving, Rekt Capital, a popular cryptocurrency trader and expert, has offered a compelling narrative on the future trajectory of Bitcoin, predicting that the crypto asset could peak this bull cycle in the following year. Rekt Capital’s analysis emphasizes on the possibility that this current cycle could reiterate past Halving cycle trends, positioning BTC for significant gains in the coming months.
Bitcoin Could Mirror Past Halving Cycle
According to the analyst, Bitcoin reached its all-time high within 518 days following the Halving in the 2015–2017 cycle. Meanwhile, after the event in the 2019-2021 bull cycle, the digital asset topped out within 546 days. This suggests that the event has always catalyzed massive growth for the leading cryptocurrency asset.
Should the past trend hold, the next bull market top might happen between 518 and 546 days following the recently concluded fourth Halving, particularly around the middle of September or middle of October in 2025, according to Rekt Capital.
The analyst noted that in this cycle Bitcoin is accelerating by about 220 days currently. Thus, the longer time BTC consolidates after this Halving, it will be better for resynchronizing this current cycle with the previous events cycle.
Rekt Capital also noted that Bitcoin has experienced further declines in the three weeks after the Halving, according to historical data from 2016. He has labeled the period as the Post-Halving “Danger Zone,” this is where there is a chance of downside volatility at the range low of the Re-accumulation Range.
In 2016, approximately 21 days after the occurrence, Bitcoin saw a lengthy -11% decline before gaining momentum toward the upside. However, data for 2016 indicates that if there will be downside volatility in this cycle around the Re-Accumulation Range Low, it may happen during the following 15 days.
Although the post-Halving danger zone ends in 15 days, the 2016 data indicates that there may be some negative volatility in the interim, possibly reaching the $60,600 Range Low.
Parabolic Phase For BTC
It is worth noting that Rekt Capital anticipates a parabolic phase after the re-accumulation phase is concluded. During this stage, Bitcoin usually sees massive growth leading all the way up to a new all-time high.
In the previous Halvings, Bitcoin would historically consolidate in this Re-Accumulation Range for up to 150 days before ultimately entering a parabolic phase. Once BTC breaks out of this re-accumulation stage, Rekt Capital expects BTC to see a parabolic upside by September this year if it consolidates within the aforementioned timeframe.
At the time of writing, BTC was down by over 5% in the past 7 days and was trading at $62,504. Presently, its market cap is down by 1.53%, while its trading volume has increased by over 22% in the last 24 hours.
