Despite the slight recovery, Bitcoin remains decisively down on the week<\/a>, trending far lower since the $9,200 high was established on Saturday. In fact, from the local top, the cryptocurrency has lost 12%, and over 25% since February’s $10,500 top, dramatically underperforming traditional markets in the same time period.<\/p>\n

Many traders have lost their shirts<\/a> during the drop and, as a result, have begun to fear the existence of a long-term uptrend in the crypto market. Though, leading analysts have asserted that there is nothing to fear, trying to assuage investors’ fears by saying things like Bitcoin still has the potential to hit $15,000 to $20,000 by the end of 2020.<\/p>\n

Is Bitcoin Still On Track to Hit $20,000 In 2020?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Speaking to BlockTV<\/a> in a recent interview, Joel Kruger, currency analyst at LMAX, asserted<\/a> that while the ongoing price action in this nascent market is currently “interesting,” the drop does not “compromise the outlook for the possibility that this market could be trading [at] $15,000 to $20,000 by the end of the year.” A rally to $15,000 would mark a nearly 100% rally from the current level.<\/p>\n

Kruger further explained that as long as this area holds, or at least the $6,000s hold, it will show the strength of Bitcoin, even in the face of macro turmoil.<\/p>\n
