Former Goldman Sachs executive Raoul Pal believes that Bitcoin may be on the verge of a massive rally, based on the historical volatility of the cryptocurrency dropping below 20, a level that has preceded significant price increases in the past.

Ethereum is also highlighted as trading within a bullish pattern despite recent market corrections.

Bitcoin is expected to mimic its previous rally and potentially see significant gains in the near future, according to crypto strategist Credible Crypto, who points to a bullish engulfing candle pattern and the defense of a key support level as positive signs for BTC's upward momentum.
