Is Bitcoin to $100,000 now a guarantee? 

Bitcoin (BTC) has finally flipped the $70,000 resistance into a support zone, and most market participants anticipate that the momentum will likely target $100,000.

Amid this anticipation, a cryptocurrency analyst has shared insights on what Bitcoin’s technical setup means for the possibility of claiming the $100,000 spot. 

While Bitcoin clinching the $70,000 spot is a highly bullish move, it needs confirmation to establish a stable uptrend likely to push the price to $100,000, according to an Alan Santana analysis published on TradingView on October 29.

Santana highlighted the importance of Bitcoin holding above this level through the end of the week to validate a “higher high,” something the market hasn’t seen in the last three months.

Without sustained momentum above $70,000, the expert cautioned that the current move could be a “bull trap. As stronger confirmation, Santana further suggested waiting for a weekly and monthly close above the $70,000 to $71,000 range. 

The concern of a possible correction is further elevated because, despite the recent gains, Bitcoin’s trading volume remains low, a factor often associated with weaker trends. 

Resistance levels around $72,000 and $74,000 could also challenge Bitcoin’s ascent. According to the Santana analysis, amid the growing optimism, the path to $100,000 is far from guaranteed without decisive technical support.

“Bitcoin just touched the $70,000 resistance and it even moved above the 29-July peak price which sits at $70,050. Does this means that $100,000 is now guaranteed? What happens now? Moving above 70,000 is definitely a major milestone and a bullish development but we would need confirmation first,” he said. 

Indeed, the analyst remains bullish on Bitcoin’s long-term prospects. However, he has maintained that the cryptocurrency will likely see a near-term correction, possibly dropping below $40,000 before rallying. 

For instance, as reported by Finbold, the analyst warned that the highly anticipated ‘Uptober’ momentum might turn into a ‘Downtober’ based on historical price movements. This concern emerged when Bitcoin struggled to breach the $70,000 resistance zone.

In a bullish case, Santana sees Bitcoin hitting a high of $130,000, potentially rising to the $155,000 to $200,000 range by early 2025. Such long-term prospects are backed by $119 billion VanEck, which predicts that Bitcoin will likely reach $3 million per coin by 2050, positioning it as a global reserve asset.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin surpassed $70,000 for the first time since July 29, with investors awaiting the impact of the upcoming United States elections. In this context, a win for Donald Trump is considered a bullish sentiment for the leading digital asset.

What next for Bitcoin price

Looking at Bitcoin’s next move, crypto trading expert Ali Martinez noted in an X post on October 29 that pushing above $70,500 would set the next target at $84,200.

At press time, Bitcoin was trading at $71,220, having increased by over 3% in the last 24 hours and more than 6% in the past week.

As Bitcoin crosses the $70,000 mark, anticipation is high that it may reclaim the last record high above $73,000 and target $100,000. However, for this target to be achievable, Bitcoin bulls need to strive to breach the $74,000 resistance.
