Crypto expert Michael van de Poppe stated that Bitcoin needs to break through the $70,000 mark to potentially set a new all-time high (ATH). Despite a long consolidation phase anticipated by analysts like Arthur Hayes and Rekt Capital, the potential breakout from $70,000 could lead to a significant bullish trend, with predictions of reaching up to $78,000 and further setting the stage for a higher surge towards $100,000.
