As Bitcoin (BTC) rose to trade above the $22,000 level, Yahoo Finance analyst, Jared Blikre, tweeted that $40,000 could be “a big upside target” for BTC. Blikre also explained how this uptick may benefit traders-turned-HODLers.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin (BTC) gained more than 2.70 per cent in the last 24 hours to hover at $22,229. The world’s largest cryptocurrency has rallied, climbing nearly 12.50 per cent over the last 5 days. BTC seemed to break out of the narrowest trading range in about two years, as a drop in the dollar renewed demand for battered risk assets worldwide. According to CoinMarketCap, The flagship token’s dominance rose 0.54 per cent over the day to 39.69 per cent.

Why BTC Could Double Soon?

As per a recent tweet, Blikre, revealed that Bitcoin (BTC) has formed a big base at the $20,000 level, with $30k and $40k big upside targets. Despite slipping to $20K thrice in a month, the analyst remains bullish on the digital asset. He seemed pretty confident that BTC could double in price very soon. Blikre predicted that once Bitcoin (BTC) crosses $30K, it might soon head towards $40K in a similar 2021 fashion.

The Yahoo analyst said the current prediction is based on last year’s trend on how Bitcoin (BTC) climbed from $30,000 to $60,000. However, the outcome may not be as rosy as Blikre’s anticipation since the Feds are expected to meet  this week again, to discuss further interest rate hikes to check soaring inflation.

In a statement, Edul Patel, CEO and Co-founder of Mudrex, confessed that Bitcoin (BTC) is signalling a bullish momentum and could rally towards $24,000 level this week. He further added,

“However, if it fails to break this region, we could see it retest the $20,700 area.”
