According to the prediction model using the superimposition of average gains post halving, the price is on a similar bullish track, as it was in the last two times. It’s been more than three months since the 3rd Bitcoin halving took place, and the market is starting to confirm its positive positive effect.

Miner Selling Pressure Reduced

The fundamentals are strongly in favour of the bulls with the reduction in the rate of supply or inflation. On-chain analyst, Willy Woo, also points that that halving acts an impulse which leads to bullish forthcomings. Not only that, but it also controls the long-term bull and bear cycle.

Currently, the miners are in a profitable position. Charles Edwards tweeted,

A simple indicator of a Bitcoin bull cycle. The first period of positive momentum following each Halving has historically been the most rewarding.

Moreover, as Bitcoin mining is becoming profitable again, the selling pressure is further reduced in the market as the percentage of holding by miners increases.

Apart from positive indicators from the supply side, on the market front, the simple lead of 50-Day MA (Moving Average) over the 200 seems sufficient to keep the momentum as it did the previous times as well.

Average Post-Halving Gains

An economic model built by superimposing the average gains from the previous two halvings on times-scale shows where we are potentially in another post-halving bull cycle.

The model replicating the average gains in Bitcoin price in the previous two times suggest that the next Bitcoin top will be on May 12th, 2021. Moreover, nearly 100 days after the last halving, the model also predicts the beginning of a massive bull run.

The year-end prediction according to the same model is at $41,000. However, the prediction model uses a simplistic view based on only two instances. Furthermore, Willy Woo suggests that the strength of the impulse of the bullish strength is decreasing every cycle. He tweeted,

As the sell pressure reduction from each halvening cycle reduces, the impulse has less strength. Eventually the scale of halvenings become insignificant, Bitcoin’s 4 year cycle will start to transition into the resonance of traditional markets (~10 years).
