Bitcoin Hits $124,390 Before Dropping, Analyst Predicts $600,000 Target

Bitcoin reached a peak of approximately $124,390 before falling to around $114,158 and currently sits at $115,285. Analyst AO suggests Bitcoin could follow a pattern similar to gold's, potentially rising to $600,000, indicating a 420% increase from current levels.

Key Points from AO's Analysis

Bitcoin's recent wedge and ascending triangle patterns resemble gold's historical movements.
Current consolidation around $115,000 may set the stage for a significant breakout.
Possible price target of over $600,000 by 2026 if the expected pattern completes.

A $600,000 valuation would imply a market cap of about $12 trillion, positioning Bitcoin closer to gold's valuation. This scenario supports Bitcoin's case as a major store of value.

Support from Institutional Investors

Michael Saylor argues Bitcoin will outperform traditional stores of value.
Cathie Wood projects Bitcoin could reach $1 million.
Ricardo Salinas Pliego believes Bitcoin could exceed gold’s $22 trillion market cap.

Considerations and Risks
