Bitcoin hit a one-year high of $31,400, a price last seen before the May 2022 Terra-LUNA crisis that collapsed and started a set of troubles for the crypto market. Notable analysts and experts predict an upcoming BTC price rally, Bloomberg Intelligence’s senior strategist Mike McGlone warns of many headwinds for Bitcoin price to hit $40,000.
Mike McGlone Predicts If Bitcoin Price To Hit $20,000 or $40,000
Bloomberg Intelligence’s senior strategist Mike McGlone took to Twitter to share the contents of a crypto outlook report. He argues that the launch of several Bitcoin ETFs including BlackRock spot Bitcoin ETF will not shield Bitcoin from facing its first US recession, potential equity bear market, and hawkish central banks.
The near-term outlook for Bitcoin is positive, but the key pivot point remained near $30,000 since 2021 amid the biggest money supply surge in history. He highlighted several obstacles that could potentially prevent BTC price from reaching $40,000.
In response to the recent Bitcoin ETF-inspired rally, McGlone said “Physical Bitcoin ETFs in the US are a matter of time, we believe. BlackRock’s application to start such a fund appears to have expedited this process, but a launch may not come in 2023, and Bloomberg Economics expects the US to tilt toward recession in coming months.”
Moreover, he believes the US Federal Reserve continuing interest rate hikes this year, weak US dollar liquidity, and Nasdaq 100 stock index reaching its peak are major obstacles to the upcoming Bitcoin rally.
“That the liquidity rug-pull is still happening, with most central banks continuing to tighten in June, could be a headwind, even as risk assets have bounced on hopes for a mild US recession and easing by the Fed.”

Cubic Analytics founder Caleb Franzen largely echoed McGlone’s analytics and highlighted the major zone of resistance for Bitcoin between $31,000 and $35,000.
This is the next key grapple zone for #Bitcoin based on price structure over the past two years. I have to lean bullish going into this red zone, but we must acknowledge the threat of potential resistance here.
