Bitcoin At $42,000, But: 'Down To Consolidation' Most Likely For Former ARK Invest Crypto Lead
Portfolio Pulse from Khyathi Dalal
Chris Burniske, former ARK Invest cryptocurrency lead, predicts Bitcoin (BTC) will likely consolidate further, despite its recent 5.8% week-over-week increase. Burniske, who previously predicted a mid $20Ks level for Bitcoin, reiterated his bearish outlook on X (formerly Twitter). This comes amid a backdrop of $53.6 million in Bitcoin liquidations in the past 24 hours and comments from Cryptoquant's CEO about Bitcoin miners selling, which could lead to sideways market movement for a few months. Additionally, a Scimitar Capital executive noted low trading volume for spot Bitcoin ETFs, suggesting that ETFs could offset daily miner supply post-next halving in April 2024.
