In a recent tweet, Quinten Francois shared an insight ing the uptrend chances in Bitcoin. In his insight, Francois highlights Bitcoin reaching $69,000 in 2021, with interest rates of 0.25%. Following the bear market, the BTC price jumped to $74,000 during the fastest rate hike and tightening in history earlier this year. As the central banks prepare for a 500 basis point cut in interest rates, Bitcoin prepares for another bull run.
