Bitcoin's price continues to inch closer to the $50,000 mark, being pushed higher by a bullish weekly divergence. According to top crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe, the recent break above the $48,000 level indicates an upward trajectory for Bitcoin.

The upcoming Bitcoin halving event in April adds to the excitement, as historical data suggests bullish surges following halving occasions. Van de Poppe predicts a target of $50,000 for Bitcoin, attributing it to the impact of the halving event.
