Another Bullish Indicator for Bitcoin: Valuation Reaches Key Inflection Point

Bitcoin is making its second major attempt to reach escape velocity and move decisively into the speculative zone, according to a fresh update shared by Sina, co-founder at 21st Capital.

At the time of sharing the information, BTC was trading around $94,000, with a Quantile Model Risk Score of 56.6%, signaling a mid-stage bullish setup but not yet overheated conditions.

The co-founder of the venture capital firm explains that in every previous Bitcoin cycle, there have typically been one or two failed breakout attempts before the final explosive move to new highs. Based on current behavior, BTC seems to be closely following that historic roadmap.

Current Valuation Phase Parallels Late 2020

According to Sina’s analysis, the current valuation phase mirrors November 2020, when Bitcoin was priced at $13,000. From there, Bitcoin famously surged to $61,000 in just a few months.

This historical comparison suggests Bitcoin may still have significant upside potential left in this cycle — though today’s macroeconomic environment presents some new challenges.

Macroeconomic Headwinds and Tailwinds

Unlike previous cycles, BTC today faces the dual pressures of restrictive monetary policy and recession fears. These factors could moderate the pace of Bitcoin’s ascent compared to earlier bull markets.

However, Sina notes that Federal Reserve policy is likely to shift toward easing as economic conditions evolve. As monetary tightening fades, risk assets like Bitcoin could stand to benefit from a renewed wave of liquidity.

Barring unexpected shocks from recession-related volatility, Sina believes the broader setup remains a strong tailwind for Bitcoin over the medium term.

By the end of 2025, the market will have the perfect cocktail of conditions for a major Bitcoin rally, setting the stage for the cryptocurrency to break out to new highs.
