Peter Brandt, a well-known and respected figure in trading and market analysis, particularly renowned for accurately forecasting Bitcoin’s 84% decline in 2018, has expressed his outlook for BTC.
In a recent post on the microblogging platform X (formerly Twitter), Brandt observed a recurring pattern in every Bitcoin bull market. This pattern involves BTC’s price sharply dropping after encountering a resistance level, followed by a rebound. Brandt predicts that Bitcoin could surge towards the $80,000 mark in the near future based on this pattern.
Bitcoin Price Projection and Altcoin Season Doubts
Bitcoin Price Expectations: According to Peter Brandt’s analysis, Bitcoin’s price may dip to just below the $60,000 mark in this cycle before rebounding. Brandt’s chart indicates this potential scenario, suggesting a temporary decline followed by recovery.

Doubts on Altcoin Season: Brandt also casts doubt on the likelihood of a traditional altcoin season, where alternative cryptocurrencies experience significant price increases after a Bitcoin rally. He points to the strength of Bitcoin and the rising Bitcoin dominance chart as factors that could hinder such a scenario. Bitcoin dominance measures Bitcoin’s market share in the cryptocurrency space, and a rising dominance suggests Bitcoin is performing better than the broader market, potentially overshadowing altcoins.
Analysts’ Views on Bitcoin and Altcoin Investments
Impact of Bitcoin ETFs on Altcoins: Some analysts argue that as more investors gain exposure to Bitcoin through spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on regulated exchanges, there is limited potential for this capital to flow into altcoins on exchanges. The availability of Bitcoin ETFs may direct investor focus primarily towards Bitcoin, potentially overshadowing altcoin investments.
Bitcoin Price Projections and Brandt’s Insights: Earlier this year, Peter Brandt suggested that Bitcoin’s price could skyrocket to reach $200,000 by August or September of the following year. Brandt, renowned for accurately predicting Bitcoin’s 84% decline in 2018 to less than $4,000 per coin, has gained recognition in the cryptocurrency space for his precise analyses.
Brandt’s Past Predictions: Brandt’s past predictions have garnered attention for their accuracy. In 2018, he correctly forecasted Bitcoin’s significant decline from its near $20,000 high to a low of $3,200 in December of that year. His insights, shared during an interview with Yahoo Finance, highlighted the historical precedent of parabolic advances leading to substantial crashes, sometimes resulting in declines of up to 90%.
BTC Performance in 2019 and Beyond: Brandt also predicted that if Bitcoin fell below $3,000 during Q1 2019, it could drop to $1,200. However, BTC did not fall below $3,000 that year and instead rebounded, eventually reaching new highs in 2021.
