Bitcoin price has rallied nearly 18% this year and 78% since the last halving event to hit an ATH of $112K, but traders expect a further rally before the final cooldown. Notable analysts, including Rekt Capital, Michael van de Poppe, and Willy Woo, have asserted that the Bitcoin bull run will end this year.
Bitcoin Price in the Final Bull Market Phase
Popular analyst Rekt Capital became the latest to join other technical and on-chain analysts claiming the end of the bull run in September or October 2025.
In an X post on July 9, Rekt Capital predicted the bull market peak in mid-September or mid-October. His analysis is based on Bitcoin historical chart patterns, where bull markets have peaked 518-546 days after the halving.
Interestingly, this coincides with the US Federal Reserve’s expected rate cut timeline. As per the CME FedWatch tool, the market anticipates two Fed rate cuts of 25 bps each by the year-end, with the first in September.
In June, analyst Willy Woo revealed that their model hinted BTC was entering its late phase of its bull market. He expected a BTC bear market once global macro markets turned.
Bitcoin May Hit $135K on Bull Flag Pattern Breakout
Matrixport predicted Bitcoin price to hit a new high and reach at least $116,000 in July. The prediction was based on Bitcoin’s history of making on average 9.1% gains in July in seven out of 10 years.
However, a Bitcoin bull flag pattern breakout last week turned analysts, including Peter Brandt, bullish on a further rally in Bitcoin price this year. The BTC price may rally to at least $135K before the start of the bear market.
BTC price action has been mostly sideways in the past 24 hours, with the price currently trading at $108,875. The 24-hour low and high are $108,126 and $109,198, respectively. Furthermore, the trading volume has decreased by 10% in the last 24 hours.
