DonAlt, a notable crypto analyst and industry personality, recently took to Twitter to issue his thoughts on the current state of the Bitcoin (BTC) market.
He noted that as it stands, many optimistic investors are under the impression that if BTC convincingly breaks above $4,400 - the peak of the cryptocurrency's micro-rally following December 14th's $3,150 low - further highs would have a high likelihood of coming to fruition. However, DonAlt claims that this sentiment isn't sensical, remarking that a "higher low in combination with a higher high" doesn't conclusively indicate that the bear market has breathed its final breaths.
He said, "I'll trade expecting sideways till 6k is breached. Sell resistance buy support."

Professor and Chair of the Department of Economics at LIU, New York and a contributor to Forbes News, Panos Mourdoukoutas, identified three possible reasons why a "rally may be suitable."
According to the professor, the presence of "breadth" is a key indicator that the crypto market might witness a bull run. In particular, he summarized the top 100 cryptocurrencies into two categories: "dropped in value" vs went up. In doing so, he found that 93% of the cryptocurrencies have gone up in value in the last seven days compared to only 7% that have gone down.
The next argument Mourdoukoutas makes in terms of a soon-approaching rally is "the technical momentum of the crypto rally." What he means by this is – which he explains by sharing CEO of Blockchain Consultants, Michael Noel's POV – that Bitcoin's rise, for instance, is a result of "fiat and stable coins" and not "other cryptocurrencies". He sees this as a sign that interest in traditional currencies might be gradually decreasing.
At some point during the crypto market's plummet, many opinions have been published remarking that institutional money is essential in picking up the market and potentially helping it overcome its infancy stages.
