A widely followed crypto strategist believes Bitcoin (BTC) is primed to ignite a massive explosion after breaking out from a bullish continuation pattern.

Pseudonymous analyst TechDev tells his 523,300 followers on the social media platform X that Bitcoin has broken out of a cup-and-handle pattern on the two-week chart.

The pattern typically indicates that an asset is ready to spark a new uptrend after a period of consolidation.

TechDev also points out that Bitcoin’s cup-and-handle breakout looks very similar to gold’s eruption over the past two years.

“When cup-and-handles hit with precision.

Bitcoin’s turn…” 

Looking at the trader’s chart, he seems to predict that the pattern breakout will push BTC to as high as $300,000. Earlier this month, TechDev said that a surging global liquidity and capital reallocation would serve as tailwinds for BTC’s ascent to new record levels.

“Gold goes parabolic > Liquidity breaks out > Flows to BTC + rotation from gold sends BTC parabolic

Not an original story.”

At time of writing, Bitcoin is trading for $106,709.

Turning to the altcoin market, the crypto analyst says he’s keeping a close watch on the TOTAL 3 chart, which tracks the market cap of all digital assets excluding Bitcoin, Ethereum and stablecoins.

TechDev believes that altcoins are gearing up for a meteoric ascent after going through four years of price compression.

“I don’t think many comprehend what’s coming in the altcoin market.”
