Renowned crypto analyst, Crypto Rover, has recently stirred the Bitcoin community with a bold prediction regarding the leading cryptocurrency’s upcoming market movements. In a recent X post, Rover highlighted the possibility of over $15 billion in liquidations once Bitcoin hits the $72,000 mark.
The analyst described this level as a “magnet,” suggesting an inevitable attraction of market activity that could lead to substantial liquidations. Rover’s analysis is deeply rooted in the historical patterns of Bitcoin’s price behavior following its halving events.
Bitcoin halving, which occurs approximately every four years, reduces the block reward miners receive, effectively decreasing the rate of new Bitcoin entering circulation. Historically, this event has preceded significant price surges, leading many to speculate about the next bullish run.
Rover’s analysis presents the price trend of Bitcoin over the years and depicts a clear pattern that emerges after every halving. From the first halving in 2012 to 2020, Bitcoin has been seen to rise sharply, commonly hitting a new high in the month after the halving event. In the past, the analyst said that following each of the last three halvings, Bitcoin’s value rose sharply and then corrected.

The analyst claims that history is ‘seemingly repeating itself’ by comparing today’s market conditions with those of the periods leading to previous bull markets. If history repeats, Bitcoin is likely to witness another big turnaround. As of press time, Bitcoin is trading at $59,923, showing a 4.28% increase in the past 24 hours.
Rover’s analysis presents a challenge and an opportunity for investors and traders. When it comes to gains, the potential is enormous as Bitcoin is close to the $72,000 mark, but the risk of liquidation is also high. As the cryptocurrency moves further up, the focus will be on whether history would repeat itself and what the market will do if such a large liquidation event occurs.
