Kaleo’s Bullish Predictions for Bitcoin and Crypto Market
Analyst Kaleo predicts the true bull cycle for cryptocurrencies is yet to begin, with Bitcoin currently in an accumulation phase. He forecasts Bitcoin could reach $150,000 to $200,000, and Ethereum might surge to around $12,000.
Significant capital inflows are expected to ignite a frenzy in altcoins and decentralized applications.
Despite Bitcoin’s drop to around $69,000 and Ethereum at $3,737, Kaleo remains optimistic, suggesting substantial opportunities ahead.
This bullish outlook is likely to drive increased investor interest and capital inflows, potentially boosting prices across the crypto market.
