Ethereum has already shown the way. While Bitcoin climbed roughly 5% in a single day, Ether<\/a> moved more than 8% \u2014 outpacing it by a factor of nearly 1.4. That gap, according to one analyst, is a preview of what the broader crypto market could do if Bitcoin keeps climbing through the rest of April.<\/p>\n

A Specific Price Level Is Drawing Attention<\/h2>\n

Michael Van de Poppe, founder of MN Fund and a widely followed market analyst, says Bitcoin<\/a> has a clear path to the $80,000\u2013$85,000 range before the month closes out.<\/p>\n

He made the call on X this week, pointing to a recovering global market<\/a> as the main force behind the expected move. Bitcoin was trading around $74,500 at the time of his post, up more than 5% in 24 hours, with trading volume jumping over 90% over the same period.<\/p>\n

\n

#Bitcoin<\/a> aims to attack the highs and is consolidating around $75K.<\/p>\n

If it blasts through $75K with volume, we\u2019ll be in for $80-85K this month, as that\u2019s where the higher timeframe resistances are.<\/p>\n

Yesterday I\u2019ve made an analysis with several scenarios that I\u2019m looking for.\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/zq47n6NhXk<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The $85,000 target would mark a return to price levels Bitcoin last visited in late January, when it slipped from around $89,000 down to $84,600. Getting back there would represent a gain of nearly 14% from where it stood when Van de Poppe made his call.<\/p>\n

One level matters more than the rest right now: $75,000. According to Van de Poppe, breaking through that resistance with strong volume behind it sets the stage for the run to $80,000\u2013$85,000 \u2014 where heavier selling pressure from longer-term chart history tends to sit. Bitcoin had already pushed past $75,000 by the time the analysis circulated.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Downside Support Gives The Bull Case A Floor<\/h2>\n

Van de Poppe also outlined what could keep the bullish scenario alive even if prices pull back. Based on his analysis, as long as Bitcoin holds above $72,000, there is better than a 70% chance it trades above $80,000 before April ends. That support zone acts as a line in the sand. A drop below it would likely change the picture.<\/p>\n

The backdrop helping Bitcoin here is broader than crypto. Global markets have been stabilizing after weeks of pressure tied to geopolitical tensions<\/a>, and Bitcoin has moved in step with that recovery.<\/p>\n

Altcoins Could Amplify The Move<\/p>\n

Van de Poppe\u2019s bigger claim may be the one about altcoins. He sees them moving at two to three times Bitcoin\u2019s rate \u2014 meaning if Bitcoin gains<\/a> 10%, altcoins could rise 20% to 30% or more.<\/p>\n

Reports indicate that this pattern tends to follow a predictable path. Capital flows into Bitcoin first, then into large-cap coins, and eventually rotates into smaller altcoins.<\/p>\n
