Bitcoin price has been consolidating for many weeks now, but has still yet to choose continuation or further correction. Over the last few days, bulls have begun to regain momentum<\/a>, but have yet to clear one important hurdle before it is “off to the races,” says one crypto capital manager.<\/p>\n Here’s the line they’re referring to and what the rest of the race might look like once this hurdle is overcome and bulls take back full control.<\/p>\n Bitcoin spent nearly two full years in accumulation between $3,000 and $10,000, but once that range was breached the cryptocurrency quadrupled in value in just a few months.<\/p>\n The rise was sharp and abrupt, causing widespread Bitcoin FOMO ranging from retail, to celebs, to institutions and corporations<\/a>. But after profit-taking kicked in around $42,000, the leading cryptocurrency has been consolidating, and altcoins like Ethereum have stolen the show.<\/p>\n Related Reading | GMI Model Estimates Bitcoin Fair Value At $300K By October 2021<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Bitcoin is starting to rise again, and has reclaimed the middle of the current range. But before another attempt at $42,000 which will likely be broken with little challenge, the main “hurdle” price action must \u00a0overcome is at $40,600.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n What happens when Bitcoin takes out $40,600? Jeff Ross, CEO of Vailshire Capital claims<\/a> that its then “off to the races” and the uptrend will resume.<\/p>\n According to the chart Ross has shared, the price represents the highest daily candle close on the BTCUSDT trading pair on Binance<\/a>.<\/p>\n That price might not translate perfectly to competitor exchanges like Coinbase, which have been trading at a premium due to spot buying.<\/p>\n Ross previously called for the rise to current levels after earlier this week confirming a clean technical breakout. \u00a0Bitcoin had been trading within what appeared to be a descending triangle<\/a>. Descending triangles are typically bearish patterns, but in this case after a false breakdown, price action deceptively turned around and broke upward.<\/p>\n Related Reading | Sats Stats: Bitcoin Grows 37x In Four Years From Today<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n As far as what off to the races looks like, Ross doesn’t say, but the next logical level will be the high around $42,000 itself. If that is taken out, Bitcoin price could once again quadruple within weeks<\/a> as the bullish impulse picks up in pace.<\/p>\n Thus far, the bull run has been behaving very differently than the last, with very few corrections and none reaching the last cycle average of 37% of more.<\/p>\n$40,600: The “Hurdle” Bitcoin Must Jump For The Uptrend To Resume<\/h2>\n
