Trader and analyst Rekt Capital announced the exit of the first cryptocurrency from the post-halving “danger zone” and the beginning of the re-accumulation phase.

According to the expert’s observations, in 2016, after the reward for miners was halved, Bitcoin showed a long red candle on the weekly chart, decreasing by 17%.

This time the pattern repeated itself, but the correction was only 6%, Rekt Capital indicated.

The first cryptocurrency reached a local bottom at around $57,000, but then grew by 15% and again entered the “re-accumulation range” (red zone on the chart).

The analyst noted that technically the “danger zone” will continue until the end of this week, until the third seven-day candle after the halving closes. At the same time, from a price point of view, the “reverse effect” has already occurred.

At the time of writing, digital gold is trading at $63,800, having barely changed in price over the past 24 hours.

MN Trading founder Michael van de Poppe pointed to Bitcoin consolidating above $60,000, but drew attention to the “lack of retail investors.” According to his forecast, in the event of another correction, the coin will fall to approximately $55,000.

“This range is quite acceptable as long as Bitcoin stays above $60,000. Altcoins are slowly waking up,” he added.

Rekt Capital noted that the OTHERS indicator, which tracks the market capitalization of all but the top ten cryptocurrencies, has successfully tested the $250 billion support level and is poised to break higher.

The trader named the first target at $315 billion, then the growth will continue to $425 billion. Such indicators indicate the beginning of activity in the altcoin sector.

Rekt Capital also reported that Dogecoin (DOGE) broke through the multi-year resistance level at $0.126, which has now turned into support.

“The macro downtrend is over. The new macro-upward trend has been officially confirmed,” he concluded.

The analyst's chart suggests the next major targets for the meme token are at $0.20 and $0.278.

At the time of writing, the asset is trading around $0.16, and its capitalization is $23 billion.

Earlier, Santiment experts pointed out signs of a possible onset of the altseason. This is evidenced by a decrease in transaction fees on the Ethereum network to a six-month minimum ($1.12).

Let us remind you that the PlanB analyst predicted the beginning of the growth of altcoins in the summer, followed by a correction in the third quarter.
