PlanB's Bitcoin price model is no longer valid
15 months ago, in January 2019, after Bitcoin bottomed at $ 3,216, a rare analyst tried to maintain the future uptrend. Trader and seasoned researcher, PlanB, came up with a model with data on weekly moving averages, mining difficulty and halving. But now he says the prediction is no longer accurate.
One month before the sharp decline in Bitcoin's price, PlanB remained confident in its model. He even determined that a new round of growth would begin shortly after halving and peaked in December 2021.
However, BTC has experienced a historical price drop alongside Altcoin. Its price has dropped below $ 4,000. Therefore, PlanB said it will take some more time for BTC to reach $ 100,000.
