Bitcoin Breakout May Have Further to Run, Altcoins Also to Gain, FSInsight Says

Bitcoin’s breakout above $63,300 on Monday to an all-time high is “constructive technically” and we should see prices rise to $72,000 initially and then $77,600, according to FSInsight, a markets strategy and research firm.

FSInsight notes that bitcoin momentum isn’t overbought yet on daily or weekly timeframes.

A breakout in bitcoin’s market-cap dominance chart means it may outperform alternative coins (altcoins) in the near term, FSInsight said. This “represents a likely shift to higher market capitalization into bitcoin than altcoins in the near future.”

Bitcoin and ether cycles “show upward progress into end of November before a peak in price that could persist into 2022,” FSInsight said.
