Since the Bitcoin bull market began, one discussion that has never
left the crypto community is when the next bull rally will commence
and if it would follow the previously established trend around the
halving events. To this end, a crypto analyst, Lark Davis, has
taken to X (formerly Twitter) to share his forecast around the next
bull market. What Could Happen If History Repeats Itself All of the
previous Bitcoin bull markets have always begun after the BTC
halving event which cuts block rewards in half. However, this time
around, there have been dissenting views regarding the digital
asset’s tendency to follow this established trend once more due to
deviations in various Bitcoin metrics. But Davis has shared a
possible scenario for BTC if the bull market begins after the rally
once more. Related Reading: Litecoin Hashrate Taps New All-Time

analyst on X, he points out a long period of accumulation. This is
when investors fill up their bags with BTC as it is possibly the
lowest that the price of the digital asset would get during the
bear market. BTC could reach $180,000 if the bull market follows

halving event, at which time, the price of Bitcoin and other
cryptocurrencies in the market start to pick up steam. This is when
the bull market starts to take shape, leading to the next part of
the trend which is when prices explode. In Davis’ post, he shows
that the price of the digital asset could rise as high as $180,000
during this time. If the cryptocurrency does touch this price mark,
it would mean that the price of BTC would almost triple from its
current all-time high of $69,000. How This Can Happen For Bitcoin
As clarified by the analyst in his X post, for any of this to
happen, it would mean that BTC would have to completely follow the
trends of the previous bull cycles. This would mean the bottom
could likely be reached in early 2024, but it would also be the
same year for the start of the bull run. Even if Bitcoin does
follow this trend though, it would not always be ‘up-only’ for the
market. It would mean that the bull market would top out sometime
in 2025 and then there would likely be a market crash that sends
BTC spiraling in the following year. As Davis points out, the
digital asset could tumble 70% to reach $50,000 again. Related

However, even with the obvious bear market that would follow this
trend, it is still an incredibly bullish scenario for Bitcoin and
the crypto market at large. The bull market would last around one
year, following historical data, providing ample opportunity for
investors to make the most of the market. The next Bitcoin halving
is expected to take place in April 2024, and if history is anything
to go by, this is around when the bull market should be expected to
start back up. BTC price adds $300 | Source: BTCUSD on
