Renowned crypto analyst Jelle has caught the attention of the Bitcoin (BTC) community with his bold prediction of a target price of $82,000.
Notably, despite recent challenges in breaking above the $66,000 mark, Bitcoin currently hovers around $67,780, showing resilience in the face of a short-term pullback.
BTC To $82,000 Soon?
In an X post uploaded earlier today, crypto analyst Jelle shared his latest view on Bitcoin. According to the analyst, the Bitcoin target “remains the same: $82,000”.
It is worth noting that Jelle’s forecast is based on his observation of a “bullish pennant” formation, a technical pattern that suggests a potential surge in the price of BTC. According to the analyst, the asset might experience some volatility this month.
Jelle emphasized that a bullish pattern is forming, coinciding with the upcoming BTC halving in a few weeks. This adds credibility to the emerged bullish pennant formation and the possibility of Bitcoin reaching $82,000 shortly.

Notably, the Halving is a pre-programmed event built into the Bitcoin protocol that occurs approximately every four years or after every 210,000 blocks are mined to reduce the reward for mining new Bitcoin blocks, ultimately decreasing the supply of new coins.
Historically, the event has triggered bullish price movements, as reduced supply often leads to increased demand and speculative buying. The Bitcoin halving is currently less than 20 days away.
Bitcoin Latest Price Action
While BTC has faced challenges in its upward trajectory over the past week, recent movements suggest a shift in momentum. Within the last 24 hours alone, the asset has shown a promising 2.7% increase, rising from a low of $65,135 to its current trading price of $67,628.
Despite this positive movement, BTC still reflects a decline of approximately 6.4% over the past 7 days. However, amid this fluctuation, analysts such as Captain Faibik foresee the potential for a significant rebound in Bitcoin’s value before April concludes.
Captain Faibik’s analysis, mirroring the sentiments of fellow analyst Jelle, focuses on Bitcoin’s bullish pennant formation observed on the 12-hour timeframe chart. This formation suggests an imminent breakout towards the upside.
If this breakout materializes successfully, BTC could soar to unprecedented levels, with projected price targets ranging from $88,000 to $90,000 by month’s end, according to Captain Faibik.
