The upcoming period holds potential for Bitcoin to achieve its highest price because a crucial economic metric points toward increased upward movement. Prominent analyst Michael van de Poppe predicts that Bitcoin prices will exceed previous records in three months because of the growing M2 money supply.
Van de Poppe presented data from Julien Bittel, who holds the Head of Macro Research position at Global Macro Investor. According to the provided graph, Bitcoin demonstrates a direct pattern with M2 supply movements throughout 2023. The analyst predicts that Bitcoin will rally to a sizeable price because the M2 supply continues accelerating.
The M2 measure encompasses cash and various types of financial deposits to determine broad money supply levels. Recent price movements of Bitcoin directly correlate with changes in this indicator throughout history. The M2 indicator experienced a reduction this past year, triggering Bitcoin to fall drastically. The recent M2 growth suggests positive market behavior to investors.
The analyst suggests an upcoming market rally would be likely if the correlation pattern continues. He reported that the M2 supply has achieved approximately $120 trillion worldwide. Leveraging his past empirical observations, Mr van de Poppe stated that changes in this metric have reliably led to substantial positive trends within the crypto market.
Strategy’s Massive Accumulation Draws Criticism Amid Bitcoin’s Uptrend
The acquisition came as Michael Saylor’s company Strategy announced its purchase of more Bitcoin. The company obtained 3,459 Bitcoins by spending approximately $285.8 million through its acquisition. The purchase gave Strategy ownership of 531,644 Bitcoin worth more than $45.5 billion.
The recent acquisition established Strategy as the largest corporate owner of Bitcoin yet created turmoil within the crypto market community. Internet entrepreneur Vinny Lingham disapproved of Bitcoin’s large concentration within select entities. The Bitcoin management responsibility at Strategy operates similarly to a Bitcoin Federal Reserve system, according to Vinny Lingham, who fears concentrated power could harm decentralization.
The Bitcoin community expresses concerns through Lingham’s comments about centralized market control that deviates from Bitcoin’s original decentralized ideals. The rise of institutional holdings in the crypto market creates a greater need for answers about asset distribution and governance issues.
The Bitcoin market maintains near $85,500 while analysts track economic indicators and institutional strategic changes to predict its upcoming movement.
