 <p class="paragraph">Bitcoin (BTC) has garnered unprecedented attention from the crypto community recently, more so than is typically the case.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">The world’s foremost cryptocurrency recently saw the approval of the very first spot BTC exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in January, has been leading a multi-stage crypto market rally since October 2023, and is bound for its halving event in two months’ time.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">On top of these, the last few weeks saw Bitcoin surge and, despite a brief decline in the wake of the latest CPI report, cross above $1 trillion in market cap and above $52,000 per coin.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Such a sudden rise caused many to wonder if the cryptocurrency can continue climbing to the halving itself – an event that historically saw massive increases in Bitcoin’s price – or if a correction, perhaps to as low as $36,000, is inbound.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">TD Sequential is a technical analysis tool created by analyst Tom DeMark that uses past performance to identify possible trend reversals and trend continuations on various financial markets, including the stock market and the crypto market.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">It is noteworthy, however, that Bitcoin’s other technicals, including oscillators and moving averages, based on the coin’s one-day, weekly, and monthly performance, all rank it as either a ‘buy’ or a ‘strong buy’ at press time, per the data retrieved from <em>TradingView</em>.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">Given the numerous factors driving Bitcoin’s price, it remains possible that it will continue surging to the halving itself and beyond and that it will crash beforehand. What is not only possible but certain is that the cryptocurrency has seen a significant rally of late.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Having risen 2.09% in the last 24 hours of trading, Bitcoin stands at $52,296. Generally, its rise in the last week has been strong at 16.64% and has been equally significant in the last 30 days at 23.14%.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">The world’s foremost cryptocurrency has also been surging since January 1 and is 18.45% in the green for the period – though its rise was staggered in the immediate aftermath of the ETF approvals – and it is up as much as 115.05% in the last 52 weeks. BTC reclaimed a market cap of over $1 trillion on Valentine’s Day.</p>
