The cryptocurrency market has mounted a strong revival in recent weeks. After a bearish Q1 that saw Bitcoin (BTC) fall by 11%, the largest cryptocurrency has now surged over 27% since the start of Q2 and is currently trading above $105,000.
Now, a familiar pattern from the past is fueling speculation that BTC might be on the verge of a historic rally.
Fractal Pattern Suggests BTC Is Following 2017 Footsteps
According to recent insights shared by prominent crypto analyst EᴛʜᴇʀNᴀꜱʏᴏɴᴀL, Bitcoin’s current monthly chart structure closely mirrors its 2015–2017 cycle — and that could be a big deal.
Back in 2017, after a prolonged bear market followed by an accumulation phase (highlighted in grey), BTC steadily broke above its 12-month moving average (red line). That move set the stage for a major breakout past its previous all-time high of ~$1,200, which then led to an explosive rally of over 1,400%, pushing the price to nearly $20,000.
Fast forward to now — BTC seems to be repeating the same pattern.
After enduring a painful bear market and a long period of accumulation, BTC again broke above the 12-month EMA. This time, it smashed through its previous all-time high of $68,000 and has already entered a confirmed bullish phase, now trading around $105,000.
What’s Next for BTC?
If this historical fractal continues to play out, Bitcoin may be gearing up for its next major leg higher. With strong monthly closes above the 12-month EMA and building momentum, the fractal pattern suggests BTC could be eyeing a run towards $300K–$400K and beyond in the coming months.
Adding to this bullish setup:
- Institutional demand continues to rise,
- U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs are expected to see major inflows,
- And macroeconomic conditions are improving, with cooling inflation and more stable interest rate expectations.
Final Thoughts
While markets are never guaranteed to repeat exactly, this historical pattern gives Bitcoin bulls plenty to be excited about. If BTC follows the 2017 blueprint, a parabolic surge could be closer than many expect.
For now, all eyes are on whether Bitcoin can maintain this momentum — and potentially rewrite the history books once again.
