After being stuck in a persisting bear market for over a year, Bitcoin appears to have formed $3,200 as a long-term bottom that has allowed the cryptocurrency to surge higher, firmly establishing a fresh bull trend that has sent BTC surging to new year-to-date highs.<\/p>\n

This bullish price action has led analysts to concur that the next bull run has officially started, which means that now could be the time for buying each pullback.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin (BTC) Briefly Surges to $7,000<\/strong><\/h2>\n

At the time of writing, Bitcoin<\/a> is trading up nearly 9% at its current price of $6,880, up significantly from its daily lows of $6,300.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin is now trading just below its highest price level of 2019, which was set late-yesterday when BTC rapidly surged towards $7,000 before settling slightly lower around its current price levels.<\/p>\n

Prior to last night\u2019s upwards surge, analysts<\/a> had all generally agreed that $6,400 was a key level that the crypto had to break above in order for a fresh bull trend to be confirmed.<\/p>\n

Alex Kr\u00fcger, a popular economist who focuses primarily on cryptocurrencies, spoke about the state of the markets after BTC raced past this price level, noting that it is now \u201cin bull market territory.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201c$BTC now in bull market territory after an intraday blow-off top. R: 7000, 8000. S: 6400, 6000. Old levels not as valuable, hence why above 6400 only looking at round numbers as major resistance. Hourly volume at Bitmex was the 2nd largest ever after Sep\/5\/18,\u201d he explained.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
