Altcoin Season Not Coming? Bitcoin Risks Crash To $98,200 With Negative Sentiment
A crypto analyst has issued a stark warning for the cryptocurrency market, suggesting that an altcoin season may not be forthcoming. In his latest analysis, Dr. Cat emphasizes the potential risks of Bitcoin crashing to $98,200 due to mounting negative sentiment.
The analyst highlights that while a short-term upside for Bitcoin is still feasible, it is not guaranteed and could lead to a more severe price correction. The prediction is based on Ichimoku cloud patterns indicating that the daily and 2-day time frames remain structurally bearish, which could potentially hinder any upward momentum.
In line with this pessimistic forecast, Dr. Cat believes that Bitcoin’s current market conditions echo those seen in April 2024, where a similar setup led to a significant price drop. This raises concerns about the potential for another major downturn in the short term.
Moreover, the analyst cautions that many altcoins are approaching key resistance levels against Bitcoin, mirroring last week’s setup that resulted in substantial losses for these smaller digital currencies.
In addition to Dr. Cat’s bearish forecast for Bitcoin and negative outlook on altcoin season, his analysis also highlights the likelihood of a prolonged period where Bitcoin will outperform other cryptocurrencies due to its relatively slower decline as the broader market turns bearish.
This market dynamic could result in accelerated losses for altcoins while Bitcoin experiences a more controlled correction.
