Bitcoin’s price is on track to post a quarterly increase that will be larger than any other one seen since the beginning of 2021, the year in which it went on to reach a record high. The general market consensus believes BTC acted as a hedge against issues the US and European financial sectors faced in recent times.
Factors Fuelling Bitcoin Price
After suffering a loss of $1.5 trillion in value in 2022, the crypto market is expected to have gained approximately $390 billion in value in 2023 thanks to Bitcoin’s resurgence. The recovery has occurred despite the failure of several prominent cryptocurrencies, a governmental crackdown in the United States, and the temporary de-peg of a crucial stablecoin that was intended to maintain a value of $1 at all times.

Apart from gaining momentum from failing banks worldwide, the price of the flagship cryptocurrency benefited from the proposed Bitcoin bill which is touted to be favorable for crypto miners in the US.
Bitcoin Price To Hit $35K?
The price of Bitcoin suffered momentarily on news of Coinbase getting wells notice from the SEC, however, it soon gained steam as much as 5.2% to trade around $28,812 on Thursday morning.
According to a notable cryptocurrency analyst named Michael van de Poppe, the price of Bitcoin was anticipated to decrease; but, now that it has broken through the psychological level of $28,000, Bitcoin is on its way to new all-time highs. He has earlier forecasted a price of $35K for the crypto king.

Additionally, it should be noted that BTC’s technical analysis (TA) indicators at CoinGape’s price tracker recommend a “Buy” position as summarised by its moving averages: recommending a “buy” at level 15 and “sell” at level 1. And, as things currently stand, the price of Bitcoin (BTC) is exchanging hands at $28,538 which represents a drop of 0.46% over the past 24 hours, in contrast to a gain of 15% recorded over the last seven days.
