Investor Dan Tapiero Says Bitcoin Primed To ‘Launch’ if BTC Breaks One Major Resistance Level
Investor Dan Tapiero says that Bitcoin ( BTC ) is setting up for a breakout after printing a massive bullish technical pattern.
Tapiero says that Bitcoin is forming a large, years-long cup and handle structure that is setting BTC up for a breach of the March 2024 highs at $74,000.
A cup-and-handle formation is typically viewed as a bullish continuation pattern, suggesting that an asset is taking a breather after a steep rally before taking out a key resistance level.
But according to Tapiero, Bitcoin can still go through a period of sideways consolidation before witnessing a convincing breakout.
“If that ain’t a cup and handle, I don’t know what is.
Just a great day today across the board.
Stronger payrolls and liquidity-driven BTC and ETH still trading well.
Break of the March highs and we launch. Could still do a little chop chop but days like today confirm…
[Ethereum] has achieved network effect. Only BTC and ETH are in this category, but SOL is moving in this direction as well. This is not an emotional appeal. I’m just looking at usage, revenues, community build, years in existence etc.”

Tapiero expects crypto staking, which typically offers higher yields compared to traditional financial products, to be a key component for the next bull market.
“Powerful driver of this crypto up cycle will be yield (yes, again).
3% on staked ETH now better than 2% on euro two-year, 1.4% on China two-year.
US two-year at 3.7% but expect 2% next year.”
The investor adds that China has opened the liquidity floodgates to stimulate its economy. According to Tapiero, the move is a huge bullish catalyst for Bitcoin.
“Huge macro event.
Things so bad in China, the government flinches.
QE (quantitative easing) for China equity.
Rate cuts.
Big liquidity coming.
Low likely in for China assets.
Bazooka.
Bullish gold, BTC.”
At time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $63,648, up 3% in the past day.

Once the Federal Reserve starts the rate hike cycle, is "three consecutive hikes" a reasonable expectation?
BMO expects consecutive rate hikes in October and December, with a total of three increases potentially wiping out all rate cut gains for 2025. Vanguard believes "three consecutive hikes" is a reasonable starting point, but the actual number could be as high as six. There are historical exceptions: in 1997, the Federal Reserve raised rates only once and took no further action for the following 18 months. Meanwhile, trillion-dollar debt financing by AI giants, private credit exposure in the insurance industry, and the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield approaching 5% are the most dangerous pressure points in this rate hike cycle.
Goldman Sachs Also Changes Its Tune: The Fed Will Raise Interest Rates Next Week!
Goldman Sachs has shifted from predicting a rate hold to betting on a 25 basis point hike next week, stating that this change is not due to particularly bad inflation data—the August CPI was not perfect, but it wasn’t alarming either. The real key is that hawkish comments from Waller have already shaped market expectations: "If the inflation data isn’t perfect, there will be a rate hike." If the Federal Reserve backs down now, its credibility will suffer a serious blow and long-term interest rates could react sharply and immediately.
