Global Dollar (USDG) Stablecoin Launches in the European Union

A crypto analyst has forecasted a powerful Wave 3 Bitcoin price rally that 
could take it toward new all-time highs between $160,000 and $200,000. 
Notably, this surge is expected to come with rising Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) 
and a delayed altcoin season, particularly if BTC can make a clean break above 
the $108,500 resistance level. Bitcoin Price Breakout To Spark Next Bull Run 
The Bitcoin price is currently hovering below a critical resistance level at 
$108,500, and according to a crypto analyst known as ‘BigMike7335’ on the X 
social media platform, a clean breakout and flip of this level into support 
could ignite an explosive Wave 3 bull run. Based on Elliott Wave Theory and 
Fibonacci Extension analysis, a successful move above this threshold could 
open the door to a bullish price surge with potential targets set in the 
$160,000 to $200,000 range. Related Reading: Bitcoin Flashes Double Top Above 
$106,000: FVG Says A Large Crash Is Coming The analyst’s chart shows that 
Bitcoin has already completed its Wave 1 of a five-wave impulse move, followed 
by an ABC corrective Wave 2. The market is also currently consolidating, and 
Bitcoin’s bullish momentum appears to be rebuilding. These positive 
developments are supported by a rising Stochastic Relative Strength Index 
(RSI) from the oversold region and a neutral-to-bullish RSI, both of which 
point toward upward price action. Notably, the 0.618 and 1.0 Fibonacci 
Extensions around $117,795 and $137,421, respectively, are highlighted as 
interim resistance zones where price momentum could temporarily slow before 
continuing upward. A clean breakout above $108,500 could also place Bitcoin 
above a heavy volume node visible in the volume profile within the chart, 
suggesting less overhead resistance and a stronger potential for a price 
rally. Furthermore, the analysis implies that during this powerful Wave 3 
phase, Bitcoin Dominance will likely climb toward 70%. This increase in BTC.D 
would mean capital is concentrating in the leading cryptocurrency, which 
historically results in altcoins underperforming. As a result, the expected 
altcoin season for this cycle may be postponed, following the completion or 
cooling of Wave 3. Analyst Predicts $375,000 Bitcoin Bull Run Peak Crypto 
analyst TechDave has just sounded the alarm on what he calls the Bitcoin 
“launch signal”, a rare trigger that has only appeared four times in history 
and each time marked the start of major bull market rallies. This signal 
previously appeared in October 2012, July 2016, and July 2020—all preceding 
major upward moves that ended in new cycle peaks. Related Reading: Fading Spot

Again Currently, the same signal is emerging this July, aligning with the 
previous cycle structures and reinforcing the expectation of a breakout phase. 
Notably, the formation has led to exponential gains, with each bull market run 
typically peaking months later. Following this historical pattern, TechDave 
now predicts a fresh cycle top for Bitcoin at $375,000. Featured image from
