BTC recently underwent its halving cycle. Many analysts consider halvings bullish as they reduce the supply of an asset, potentially leading to a surge in demand. A rise in demand consequently leads to a price rise.

According to CoinCodex, Bitcoin (BTC) will surpass the $74,000 level to reach a new all-time high, hitting $74,375 on Thursday, Apr. 25, 2024. Reaching $74,375 from current levels would translate to a growth of about 11.77%.

Furthermore, CoinCodex anticipates Bitcoin’s (BTC) rally to continue into May. The platform predicts BTC to hit $87,124 on May 19, 2024. Reaching $87,124 from current levels would translate to a growth of about 30.93%.

Changelly also paints a bullish picture for BTC over the next few weeks. The platform predicts BTC to hit a new all-time high of $73,974 on Apr. 25, 2024. Furthermore, Changelly anticipates the asset to continue its rally in May, hitting another high of $86,769 on May 19, 2024.

The bullish outlook around Bitcoin (BTC) could be due to its recent halving event and the increased inflows into spot BTC ETFs. The inflows into spot BTC ETFs were the reason why BTC hit a new all-time high in March this year. A similar pattern might unfold later this month as well.
