Stockton’s prediction aligns with those of other crypto<\/a> experts, notably Markus Thielen<\/strong> from 10x Research, who estimates that Bitcoin<\/a> could climb to $133,000<\/strong> following the July 10 breakout. Other analysts, like Nick Ruck, also anticipate progression toward $130,000 – $138,000<\/strong> in the short term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Indeed, the MVRV Pricing Bands show resistance at $138,000<\/strong> that could be reached in August before potentially retracing to $115,000<\/strong>, or even $109,000<\/strong>, if this level isn’t broken through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Despite recently crossing the $120,000<\/strong> threshold, retail investors still appear absent from the market. This bullish phase is primarily driven by institutional capital, without the usual signs of retail investor enthusiasm. These smaller investors are only expected to get involved around the $150,000<\/strong> mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"graphique](\"https:\/\/preprod.investx.fr\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/07\/image-85.png\")
