Historically, Bitcoin has peaked between 518 and 550 days after halving, Rekt Capital <a data-ct-non-breakable="null" href="https://x.com/rektcapital/status/1849371336797208891" rel="null" target="null" text="null" title="null">said</a> in an earlier post.&nbsp;
Despite the long post-halving consolidation period, “Bitcoin is still accelerating in this cycle by approximately 35 days or so,” the analyst added.&nbsp;
<blockquote>
 “So the longer Bitcoin consolidates after the Halving, the better it will be for resynchronising this current cycle with the traditional Halving cycle.”

Anticipation of a breakout in BTC price lingers in the background, as suggested by Bitcoin’s volatility indicator.
For Bitcoin analyst “The Bull” Severino, <a data-ct-non-breakable="null" href="https://x.com/tonythebullBTC/status/1849799074515460345" rel="null" target="null" text="null" title="null">tightening</a> Bollinger Bands conditions in the two-week time frame indicates that a significant “huge move” is imminent.

The other time was in September 2015, preceding an 8,300% rally in BTC price to 2017’s all-time high near $20,000.&nbsp;

If history repeats itself, Bitcoin could soon break out of consolidation to unprecedented levels over the next few months.
Fellow analyst CryptoCon <a data-ct-non-breakable="null" href="https://x.com/CryptoCon_/status/1850616416329974066" rel="null" target="null" text="null" title="null">shared</a> a similar sentiment, saying that the tightening two-week Bollinger Bands suggested that the Bitcoin bull market is next.
“This is one of the longest times spent in the Low Volatility Zone of the Weekly Bollinger Band Width,” CryptoCon <a data-ct-non-breakable="null" href="https://x.com/CryptoCon_/status/1849130737695387748" rel="null" target="null" text="null" title="null">said</a> in another post on X.
“The longer the consolidation, the more the upside.”
