Raoul Pal Predicts Bitcoin Could Follow 2016 Patterns for Major Gains
Macro strategist and ex-Goldman Sachs executve Raoul Pal believes Bitcoin may be on the cusp of a significant surge, drawing parallels to its behavior in 2016.
The macro expert pointed out similarities in market conditions, suggesting Bitcoin could see a dramatic move upward, though not an exact replay of past events.

Pal noted that while the trajectory might not mirror 2016 perfectly, the overall pattern indicates upward momentum for Bitcoin. Back in 2016, the cryptocurrency traded near $1,000 before skyrocketing to $20,000 in 2017. He advised investors to remain patient and focus on the long-term trend, adding, “Don’t expect an exact repeat but a rhyme. Valhalla waits.”
The global M2 money supply, a broad measure of liquidity in the global economy, is another key metric Pal is monitoring . He highlighted that M2 is following a pattern similar to the 2016-2017 period, which coincided with Bitcoin’s historic rally. This alignment, according to Pal, could signal another significant move for the cryptocurrency.
