☕ Bitcoin’s Cup-and-Handle Pattern Spotted — Is the $300K Target Still Alive?
Bitcoin just hit a new all-time high of $111,970, and analyst Gert Van Lagen says the cup-and-handle formation is pointing to even bigger moves ahead — possibly up to $300,000.
The Setup:
• Pattern Formed: 2021–2024
• Cup: Formed from the 2021 ATH (~$69K) through a rounded bottom
• Handle: Recent consolidation in early 2024
• Breakout: Confirmed once BTC pushed past the $69K resistance
Why It Matters:
The cup-and-handle is a classic bullish continuation pattern. Historically, breakouts from this formation can lead to exponential rallies — and BTC is now riding that wave.
Van Lagen projects:
• Linear target: $120K–$130K (short-term)
• Exponential potential: $300K, based on historical growth patterns (100x from 2013–17, 21x from 2018–21)
Fueling the Fire:
• Spot Bitcoin ETFs (approved in early 2024) have drawn major institutional capital
• Market cap has soared past $2 trillion, yet volatility = opportunity
• Despite a small dip caused by Trump’s proposed 50% EU goods tariff, BTC still gained 5.35% last week
So… Is $300K Just a Dream or a Delayed Reality?
The pattern is bullish, the fundamentals are maturing, and the institutions are locked in. With macro volatility, ETF momentum, and a breakout pattern in place — this could be BTC’s biggest run yet.
