Crypto Market Analysis: Daily Bitcoin, Ethereum & DeFi Updates podcast.
Hey crypto fam, Crypto Willy here with your weekly market roundup!
What a week it's been for Bitcoin! We're currently sitting above $111,000, and let me tell you, the volatility has been real. CoinDesk reported that Bitcoin has been consolidating in a tight range, with traders watching key levels closely. The digital gold defended support around $109,800 with a massive volume spike on October 24th, pumping over 180% above the average daily volume. That's institutional money at work, folks.
Now, here's where things get spicy. Standard Chartered's Geoffrey Kendrick just dropped a bomb, completely flipping his earlier prediction. Three weeks ago, he was calling for an imminent pump to $135,000, but the October 10th crash changed everything. He's now saying a dip below $100,000 is "inevitable" due to macro fears around US-China trade tensions. But here's the kicker – he believes this could be the last chance ever to buy Bitcoin under six figures. Talk about a silver lining!
OpenAI's ChatGPT is projecting Bitcoin could trade between $128,000 and $136,000 by October 31st, with a base case of $132,000. The AI model sees support at $118,000 and $115,000, while resistance sits at $125,000 and $130,000. If momentum accelerates with ETF inflows, we could see Bitcoin break above $140,000. Changelly's technical forecast shows potential prices reaching $124,099 by October 31st, though their predictions are slightly more conservative.
VanEck's Matthew Sigel dropped some seriously bullish insights in their mid-October ChainCheck. Bitcoin hit new all-time highs above $125,000 on October 6th before the correction. The key takeaway? Global M2 money supply growth is explaining more than half of Bitcoin's price variance, confirming its role as an anti-money printing asset. Futures open interest peaked at $52 billion before cascading liquidations drove that 18% drawdown, but leverage has now normalized to the 61st percentile.
The macro picture is looking interesting too. A Federal Reserve rate cut is expected later this month, which could boost institutional appetite. Bitcoin ETFs continue seeing strong inflows, adding serious upward pressure. Prominent analyst Ali Martinez pointed to Glassnode's MVRV Extreme Deviation Pricing Bands, suggesting Bitcoin could target $139,800 as long as it holds above $117,650.
Michael Saylor is talking about a supply shock following the recent halving, while Cathie Wood maintains her ambitious $1 million target within five years. Anthony Scaramucci sees $170,000 within the next year, and both Tom Lee and Marshall Beard are eyeing $150,000 soon.
The market sentiment shows 42% bullish signals, with the Fear and Greed Index sitting at 37, indicating fear – which historically has been a buying opportunity for the savvy traders among us.
