Bitcoin’s AI Model Predicts Slow Recovery, Less Than 50% Chance to Hit $100K

Bitcoin (BTC) has experienced a significant price drop, retracting nearly 30% from its all-time high of $126,000. This decline is causing concerns about a potential bear market.

  • An AI-driven simulation by analyst Timothy Peterson suggests the Bitcoin bottom may have already been reached or could occur soon.
  • Peterson predicts a slow recovery towards the year's end, with less than a 50% chance of reaching $100,000 by December 31.
  • The model indicates a 15% chance of closing at approximately $84,500 and an 85% chance of finishing higher.

These estimates are based on seasonal averages and do not factor in broader economic changes that could affect Bitcoin's price.

  • Historically, Bitcoin often consolidates after major price movements, potentially stabilizing between $84,000 and $90,000, with $80,000 as critical support.

Fed’s December Rate Path

  • Investor sentiment is affected by Bitcoin trading below $90,000, currently around $88,900. Margin calls due to borrowed funds contribute to hesitancy in buying.
  • Upcoming economic data before Thanksgiving could impact the crypto market, especially if it influences the Federal Reserve's decision on interest rates in December.
  • If the Fed reduces rates, Bitcoin could benefit; maintaining rates might lead to further sell-offs.
  • Victoria Scholar highlights the importance of the $80,000 support level, warning that breaching it could strengthen bearish sentiments.
