A popular cryptocurrency trader has made a prediction that a mid-cap altcoin could potentially double in value following a market downturn. In a recent video session, crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe shared with his 162,000 YouTube subscribers that the decentralized derivatives exchange, Injective (INJ), may soon rise to $15 based on its historical price behavior.
INJ could follow a pattern from March and June
The analyst suggests that INJ may be following a pattern from March and June, where it experienced a dip alongside Bitcoin (BTC), but recovered faster than the leading crypto.
Injective (INJ) has returned to its pre-dump levels on August 18th, suggesting a possible resurgence of market trend and momentum.
Reaching the $30,000 BTC level requires significant strength from Bitcoin, so it is unlikely to happen all at once.
It’s crucial to keep a close eye on INJ, given its significant increase in value from $2.50 to $10 since March and $5 to $10 in June.
If this trend persists, we could potentially see it reach $15. As of now, INJ closed 2022 at $1.27 and has increased by a staggering 484% to its current value of $7.42.
Bitcoin is currently trading at $26,095, down 1.4% in the last 24 hours. Stay vigilant and keep track of these developments.
Addressing the future of BTC
Arthur Hayes, the founder of BitMEX and a seasoned crypto expert, has shared his thoughts on the current market downturn and the future of Bitcoin (BTC).
According to his recent blog post, Hayes suggests that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies could benefit from the interest income generated by US government bonds.
Despite some forecasts predicting a significant drop in value, Hayes believes that Bitcoin will only experience a mild decline of less than 5% from its current level.
He also anticipates that more investors will realize the potential benefits of investing in tech stocks and crypto, as the Federal Reserve and US Treasury continue to distribute billions of dollars each month to affluent savers.
