The recent price rally has led analysts to focus on higher valuations that were last seen in mid-2022 but also anticipate further gains based on the sentiment of traditional risk assets. Bitcoin is on track for a major breakout on its 1-year chart, with the possibility of reaching $46,100 sooner than expected, after first breaking resistance levels at $25,000 and $32,000, according to data-driven investment research at Game of Trades. Despite ongoing worries about the consequences from the bankruptcy of crypto exchange FTX, the rebound is impressive, given that it has passed critical resistance levels. While a rally toward $25,000 may be possible, it may depend on traditional risk assets, led by technology companies, which have found their footing again during the last two trading days as worries about a recession have subsided, and the U.S. Federal Reserve has been less hawkish. Speculators are confident that the Fed will only raise interest rates by 25 basis points on February 1.
