Bitcoin’s (BTC) price swings in the past two weeks have wreaked havoc on investors’ portfolios – but the cryptocurrency could be on the verge of a massive move if one analyst’s prediction comes true.
This prediction, which forecasts Bitcoin to hit $200,000 by the end of the year, would represent a 383% increase from today’s price.

Crypto analyst Alben Weeks turned heads this week with an ultra-bullish Bitcoin price prediction for 2024.
<a href="https://x.com/albenweeks2/status/1746974030328893857?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">In a detailed Twitter thread</a>, Weeks laid out his thesis for why Bitcoin could surge to $200,000 this year.
He pointed to several key drivers, including increasing institutional adoption, the upcoming Bitcoin halving event, and fear of missing out (FOMO) from retail investors.

Specifically, Weeks highlighted the proliferation of Bitcoin ETFs, noting that assets from mainstream funds will likely flow into these products ahead of the halving.
With major firms like ARK Invest and BlackRock now offering spot ETFs, the pool of potential capital is massive.
Weeks also argued that many investors are sitting on the sidelines waiting for a dip but will likely capitulate and buy regardless.
When combined with individual retirement accounts and pension funds dipping into crypto, Weeks sees the stars aligning for Bitcoin to breach its all-time high and hit $200,000 in the next 12 months.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-spot-btc-etfs-see-continued-demand-validating-bullish-forecasts">Spot BTC ETFs See Continued Demand, Validating Bullish Forecasts</h2>
Bitcoin’s mainstream momentum continues gaining steam as spot ETFs <a href="https://x.com/Capital15C/status/1748122024550031386?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">scooped up an additional 10,600 BTC yesterday</a>, just five trading days after their launch.
This buying spree aligns with the points raised in Alben Weeks’ lofty price prediction.
The nine spot ETFs tracking Bitcoin have accumulated approximately 68,500 BTC worth $2.8 billion since debuting last week.
Leading asset managers BlackRock and Fidelity <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/spot-bitcoin-etfs-scoop-up-10000-btc-day-5-trading" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">saw their funds eclipse $1 billion in assets under management (AUM)</a> in less than seven days.

However, the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust (GBTC) continued seeing outflows, with nearly 38,000 BTC exiting the fund since converting into an ETF on January 11.
Still, trading volumes in the spot ETFs surged 34% on their fifth day, defying typical post-launch declines.
As major players increasingly embrace crypto ETFs, these products could drive significant new inflows into Bitcoin ahead of its supply-cutting halving this spring.
Due to this, Weeks’ bullish price prediction looks increasingly plausible.

While Bitcoin grabs the headlines, it’s far from the only cryptocurrency that could surge in 2024.
One emerging project investors are watching is <a href="https://coinpedia.care/b_btcmtx_43644?referrer=analyst-backs-bitcoin-price-to-hit-$200000-in-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin Minetrix (BTCMTX)</a>, which has raised over $8.8 million in its limited-time presale.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-bitcoin-minetrix-presale-offers-early-access-to-innovative-mining-model">Bitcoin Minetrix Presale Offers Early Access to Innovative Mining Model</h2>
Bitcoin Minetrix offers a fresh take on Bitcoin mining that could propel major growth if successful.
Still in its early stages, Bitcoin Minetrix utilizes a staking model allowing users to earn “mining credits” for accessing cloud computing power to mine Bitcoin.
As mentioned in <a href="https://bitcoinminetrix.com/assets/documents/whitepaper.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin Minetrix’s whitepaper</a>, this opens the door to passive income from BTC mining without expensive hardware or significant financial resources.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-us.googleusercontent.com/kQcqQb9HXaztJqJ-_f70FVRfjjjevjWP4Bp9Tky74CV99buuSVj4iOsY9RbldcbhIJDVwFZv0XsVx8sD78JIE_E3-EJsgPq1Petxzub3ONtOL0AQ00B9py4C2rtImrbJGHze-ZLUjV3xMuA6j_zJQzo" alt="bitcoin minetrix">

Moreover, by staking their BTCMTX tokens, holders can <a href="https://bitcoinminetrix.com/en/dashboard" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">earn staking rewards exceeding 70% APY</a> while simultaneously gaining the ability to mine Bitcoin.
This dual-earning mechanism is a crucial reason Bitcoin Minetrix’s presale has gained enormous traction.
During the presale, investors can buy BTCMTX tokens for $0.0129 – a price that will increase incrementally between stages.
Once the presale ends, Bitcoin Minetrix’s team plans to list BTCMTX on centralized exchanges, where supply and demand dynamics will determine the token’s price.

</figure>
Members of the <a href="https://t.me/bitcoinminetrix" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin Minetrix Telegram channel</a> believe these listings could see BTCMTX’s value explode if the platform’s features are widely adopted.
Overall, with analysts like Alben Weeks forecasting a strong 2024 for Bitcoin itself, Bitcoin Minetrix could also be primed for a fruitful year.
Early investors can take part in the <a href="https://coinpedia.care/b_btcmtx_43644?referrer=analyst-backs-bitcoin-price-to-hit-$200000-in-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin Minetrix presale</a> at bitcoinminetrix.com.
