Bitcoin's Golden Cross Signals Potential 139% Rally

The Bitcoin price has recently displayed a rare Golden Cross on the weekly chart, a technical signal that typically appears once every market cycle. This Golden Cross is significant because it has historically preceded some of Bitcoin’s most explosive bull runs, leading analysts to believe that the next bullish leg up could be imminent.

A Golden Cross occurs when a shorter-term Moving Average (MA), usually the 50-week MA, crosses above a longer-term one, such as the 20-week MA. In the cryptocurrency world, this technical formation is seen as a highly bullish indicator that often signals a long-term trend reversal or the start of a new uptrend. While the signal alone does not guarantee gains, Bitcoin’s price history suggests it is a crucial indicator to monitor closely.

According to a crypto analyst, the Bitcoin price has just flashed a Golden Cross, a pattern that has only been seen three times in the past decade. Each time this Golden Cross has appeared, Bitcoin has experienced a parabolic upward move. In 2016, Bitcoin recorded a massive surge of 139% after flashing a Golden Cross on its price chart. Similarly, in the 2017 bull cycle, the flagship cryptocurrency underwent another crossover, which led to an astonishing 2,200% increase, marking one of its most parabolic rallies and capturing global attention.

In 2020, during the historic bull market that led to Bitcoin’s global exposure and dominance, the same Golden Cross pattern was formed. Following this, Bitcoin recorded a 1,190% rally, pushing its price to its then all-time high near $69,000 in 2021. Now, in 2025, five years after the previous Golden Cross appearance, Bitcoin has once again printed this powerful signal and could be on the verge of another historic rally. The analyst’s price chart shows the crossover forming clearly, with many comparisons to the previous cycle setups.

While the exact percentage price increase this time remains unknown, the consistency of the pattern has sparked the analyst’s prediction that Bitcoin may be gearing up for a powerful rally above $200,000. In another similarly bullish Bitcoin price analysis, an analyst has projected that the flagship cryptocurrency will soon hit a new all-time high this cycle. While many suggest that the Bitcoin price surge above $109,000 during a significant event was its market top, a significant portion of the community still expects a rally to a higher peak before a bear market.

Sharing a Bitcoin price chart that outlines its possible bullish trajectory, the analyst predicts that the flagship cryptocurrency could be heading to a “weak high” of $110,000. The analyst has pinpointed a key support zone around $90,000, emphasizing that this was the most optimal price level for maximum buying.
