Bitcoin surges past $31,000
After attempts to sustain its price around the $30,000 level, Bitcoin has managed to break the resistance, trading at $31,300 with gains of almost 6% in the last 24 hours. The flagship cryptocurrency has gained over 2% in the last seven days. For Bitcoin to embark on an upward trajectory, some crypto analysts had opined that the asset needed to flip the $30,300 level to establish it for growth. As reported by Finbold, prominent crypto trading expert Michaël van de Poppe stated that if Bitcoin flipped the level, it would be in a good position to advance towards $31,800. According to Poppe: Despite the recent dip in cryptocurrencies, institutions and experts have maintained a bullish outlook. For instance, senior commodity strategist at Bloomberg Intelligence, Mike McGlone, believes that cryptocurrencies will likely outperform all other asset classes once the current bear market cools down. The strategist has previously maintained that Bitcoin will likely trade at $100,000 by 2025.
