$BTC

Bitcoin starts the new month with strong upward momentum, recently surpassing the figure of US$ 97,500. Now, attention is focused on the long-awaited achievement of the US$ 100,000 threshold, which many believe is just around the corner.

One optimistic voice comes from veteran analyst Peter Brandt, who has just shared the latest price projection that has rekindled market enthusiasm. According to Brandt, Bitcoin is on track to reach the range of US$ 125,000 to US$ 150,000 by August or September 2025.

His research is based on technical analysis, particularly the observation that BTC is attempting to reclaim the main parabolic trend line, a pattern that has historically marked the peak of bull cycles. Brandt's weekly chart shows BTC moving in a bullish wedge pattern and remaining within a long upward channel, supporting a sustained upward trend.

If Bitcoin rises to US$ 150,000, it would represent a 56 percent surge from the current price. The rest of the crypto market is likely to follow, especially altcoins that tend to outperform BTC in the mid to late stages of the bull cycle.
