Bitcoin To Outperform Altcoins Soon, Says Analyst Who Nailed 2018 Bottom Prediction

The crypto analyst, who first predicted Bitcoin's BTC/USD 2018 bottom, said that since BTC surpassed the $18,000 mark and left the "slow and choppy climb-up" phase, they have ceased holding a bearish attitude and are examining the opportunity for "long" pullbacks.

What Happened: ‘Smartcontracter’ told his 218,000 followers on Twitter that Bitcoin's current price action appears to be impulsive and they are expecting BTC's dominance to increase as it is approaching its December high. 

The analyst is predicting that BTC may outperform altcoins in the coming months.
