In the cryptocurrency market, after mounting a solid rally since the start of Q2—during which Bitcoin (BTC) surged by 27% to hit a new all-time high of nearly $112K on May 12—experienced a pullback in late May that brought the price down to a low of $103K before recovering to its current level above $104K.
However, a familiar fractal pattern forming on the chart suggests that a major expansion rally could be on the horizon.

According to the latest insights shared by popular crypto analyst @Sykodelic_ , Bitcoin appears to be repeating a bullish fractal from previous market cycles—one that historically preceded massive upside moves.
The chart illustrates this recurring pattern in detail. In August 2024 and April 2025, a death cross marked the exact bottom at around $49K and $73K, respectively. This shakeout was followed by a golden cross, which marked the beginning of a breakout. After breaking through trendline resistance, Bitcoin completed a clean retest before launching into an aggressive expansion phase.
Bitcoin (BTC) Daily Chart/Source: @Sykodelic_ (X) The same pattern seems to be unfolding now. With another golden cross and a successful retest behind us, the setup is nearly identical to previous expansion phases—suggesting BTC could be on its way to price discovery mode, potentially targeting $158,000 and beyond.
Technicals Aligning for Parabolic Push
Technically, Bitcoin looks primed for a major rally. May closed with the highest monthly candle in BTC’s history, signaling strength on higher timeframes. A weekly close near current levels would provide further confirmation of continuation.
Under the hood, the market structure is resetting perfectly. Open interest saw a massive wipeout recently, eliminating excess leverage and clearing the path for a sustainable rally. Funding rates remain low across major exchanges, showing that the market isn’t overly bullish yet. Interestingly, spot premiums are still in the red, which indicates ongoing fear and hesitation—often a contrarian sign that the next leg up is brewing.
If history repeats, Bitcoin may be just days or weeks away from its next parabolic move.
