Bitcoin Price Spike Targets the $40K Handle, Crypto Economy Recaptures $1 Trillion Market Cap

Crypto asset markets have seen some significant gains over the last 24 hours recapturing much of the losses suffered a few days ago. The entire crypto-economy valuation is now back over the $1 trillion mark and bitcoin has jumped above the $40k handle on January 14.

Bitcoin (BTC) and a number of other digital assets have experienced some nice price gains during the last day. Gains that have almost erased the losses felt on Sunday and Monday.

The recent value spike has added confidence to many cryptocurrency advocates after last Monday’s losses.

“Welp, that was a quick bear market,” tweeted the bitcoin proponent Anthony Pompliano on Thursday. “Bitcoin back to $40,000. Stop listening to fools with no skin in the game,” Pompliano added.

Plan B’s stock-to-flow (S2F) chart shared on January 14, 2021.

The creator of the stock-to-flow bitcoin price model, Plan B, also tweeted about the price jump after the crypto asset crossed $38k. Plan B stated:

Bitcoin $38k is nice, but I am still waiting for that larger monthly jump that usually marks the phase transition / the point of no return (red arrows).

The Civic founder Vinny Lingham, otherwise known as the ‘Oracle,’ also discussed the price on Thursday and made another prediction.

“If bitcoin breaks $42k, it’s going to run to test $50k pretty quickly,” Lingham tweeted. “If it doesn’t, then most likely we’re going to be stuck below $40k for a while, with some sideways consolidation [and] this may trigger a big run on altcoins. Keep an eye on ETH, FIL, SOL for major breakouts,” Lingham added.
