This essentially indicates the highest Bitcoin outflow from exchanges since that date,' the firm added. Widely followed cryptocurrency analyst Bitbull suggested two probable possibilities for Bitcoin: a breakout continuation or a pullback before the 'real run' that may begin in September. 'Either way… the path to $120,000+ looks wide open,' Bitbull added. $BTC is at a key point right now. Case A: The breakout continues — we don't need to wait.
