Crypto Trader Updates Outlook on Bitcoin and Altcoins, Says Chainlink Could Explode by 123%

A widely followed crypto analyst is taking a look at altcoins as Bitcoin (BTC) stumbles.

Crypto trader Michaël van de Poppe tells his 695,000 followers on the social media platform X that Chainlink (LINK) could potentially reach $40 in the next few months, a huge 123% increase.

“Chainlink had another leg upwards in their BTC pair towards the crucial resistance.

Failed to break out.

It’s looking for a higher low & support and then a reversal towards 4500 satoshis again.

I think LINK is likely to run to $30-40 in the coming months.”

LINK is trading for $17.80 at time of writing.

With Bitcoin down a slight 1.6% over the last seven days, Van de Poppe expects to be able to take advantage of a market-wide dip.

“I’ll be looking to buy the dip on the markets.

One of them is, potentially, API3 which is currently facing an exciting zone to look at opportunities.

Between $3.50-3.80, I’m interested before another leg up happens.”

API3, a Chainlink competitor and oracle service, is worth $3.73 at time of writing.

Despite BTC’s recent pullback, the analyst still expects Bitcoin’s overall trend to remain up.
