Bitcoin (available on Coinbase) price is going up again on Wednesday, extending Tuesday’s monster rally of over 15%. Early Tuesday morning, BTC ballooned to about $5,080, breaking its long-term resistance level of $4,200. For months now since its infamous crash last year, BTC has struggled to surpass the $4,200 mark, and this begs the question as to whETHer the cryptocurrency pack leader is en route to its former glory.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin (available on Coinbase) price is trading at $5,060, up 4.86%.

Is It a Steady Rally?

It is not clear what might have triggered the 15% spike, making it even harder to speculate if this is the beginning of a bullish trend or if this is just a one-time thing before prices retreat again below $3,200. However, if Bitcoin (available on Coinbase) breaks out past the $5,200 mark in the coming days, the case for a bull market becomes much sTron (available on Binance)ger.

Bitcoin (available on Coinbase) enthusiasts like Alex Kruger believe that crypto is transitioning to a bullish trend.

“This is not a call. Not a matter of aging well or not. A break above $4,200 technically ends the bear trend that started Jan 2018. Facts don’t care about opinions. If sTron (available on Binance)g selling resumes later on, that would represent a different trend,” commented Kruger

Bitcoin (available on Coinbase) price has suffered a bearish trend for close to five months now, making Tuesday’s mysterious price surge the highest since November 19th. The crypto’s spike incited an upsurge of other digital coins like Ethereum (available on Coinbase), which rose by 25%; Bitcoin (available on Coinbase) Cash gained 50%; and Litecoin (available on Coinbase) went up by 40%.
