TL;DR
Bitcoin recently rose to nearly $68,000, and analysts are predicting a potential rally to $86,000 to $90,000 if some resistance is broken. Some believe that BTC could reach $100,000 if Donald Trump wins the upcoming US election, due to his pro-crypto stance.
How high can BTC go?
Bitcoin (BTC) has been on a tear lately, with its price hitting a 10-week high of nearly $68,000 on October 15. In the following hours, it experienced further volatility to stabilize at the current $67,700 (according to CoinGecko data).

The impressive resurgence caught the attention of many industry participants, some of whom claimed that ‘Uptober’ is finally here. One popular analyst who chimed in is X user Ali Martinez.
He believes BTC could explode to a new all-time high of around $86,600 if it breaks the $67,400 resistance mark. As mentioned above, the valuation of the asset is currently trading above the level represented.
Captain Faibik is another analyst who intervened. User X presented a price chart showing that as of now BTC is testing “crucial resistance” around $68,000 for the sixth time.
“If Bitcoin successfully breaks out of the widening wedge to the upside, the target would be around 88K-90K,” the analyst stated.

Several market watchers think November could also be a very successful month for BTC, assuming Donald Trump wins the US presidential election (scheduled for November 5). A popular X user who believes the asset’s valuation will soar to the coveted $100,000 if this is the case is Crypto Rover.

Remember that Trump made a U-turn in recent months, presenting himself as the right choice for pro-crypto voters and promising to let the industry thrive if he entered the White House as the winner.
According to Polymarket, he has a nearly 60% chance of victory compared to 40.8% for his Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris. National polls, however, indicate that the Republican is currently the underdog at 46.1%, while Harris has the support of 48.5% of voters.
