A top crypto analyst has made a bold prediction for Bitcoin (BTC), stating that the price might be prime for a reversal in the coming week. This prediction comes at a time when the largest cryptocurrency by market cap is experiencing bearish sentiment among investors.
While the general crypto market suffers the same fate, investors are hopeful for a potential rally that looks to be on the horizon according to the recent analysis by the expert. The rally is expected to be catalyzed by major events in the crypto space including the potential approval of a spot Ethereum ETF by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Bitcoin Price Reversal Imminent?
Earlier today, Michael van de Poppe, the CIO and Founder of MN Trading and a prominent cryptocurrency analyst, shared his thoughts on the Bitcoin price on X (formerly Twitter). According to him, Bitcoin (BTC) is likely to fall again to the $60,000 zone before picking up momentum that will set it up for a bullish divergence.
He pointed out that the reversal will probably come next week after the awaited approval of the Spot Ethereum ETF by the US regulatory body. This implies that the approval will not only boost the price of Ethereum, but the ripple effect will reach Bitcoin and possibly other cryptocurrencies in the market.

Industry giants as well as investors are hoping for the approval of the ETH spot ETF. If this happens, the price of ETH could skyrocket mirroring the price trajectory of Bitcoin following its ETF approval in January 2024. Interestingly, this prediction comes amid heightened Bitcoin whale activities in recent days, particularly from notable governments.
Recall that Coinfomania reported that the German government offloaded a significant 400 BTC (valued at $24.34 million) to both Coinbase and Kraken exchanges. A few days later, the United States government dumped a staggering 3,940 seized BTC (worth $240 million) into the Coinbase Prime wallet. These two transactions have caused huge selling pressure on the flagship cryptocurrency. Also, the failed crypto exchange, Mt. Gox, has announced that it will commence repayment in Bitcoin and Bitcoin Cash to its creditors from July 2.
Additionally, Bitcoin miners are reportedly selling off their holdings, raising concerns among market participants. According to a recent post on X, Bitcoin miners have sold over $1 billion worth of Bitcoins this year.
