The Bitcoin price has been trading below $100,000 for months now, and there has been no attempt to reclaim this level. Even now, the price continues to trade more than 40% below its all-time high, as massive sell-offs continue to push the price down. Amid this widespread selling and negative macroeconomic factors, a crypto analyst has revealed when they expect the Bitcoin price to reach the $100,000 mark again before attempting a new all-time high.
End Of Iran War Will Drive Bitcoin Price
Back in February, the United States had apparently carried out coordinated strikes on the Iranian military, eventually leading to what is now known as the US-Iran war. This move affected financial markets across the globe, and Bitcoin was not left out. Even now, the cryptocurrency market continues to feel the impact of the conflict as inflows have slowed down.

This negative macroeconomic climate has put a damper on the Bitcoin price, and investors remain wary. While the war rages on, the expectation is that financial assets will continue to struggle, especially as oil prices rise. However, the real move is expected to come in the event of a ceasefire.
According to a pseudonymous crypto analyst, who goes by @RoccobullboTTom on X (formerly Twitter), the Bitcoin price will surge when the US-Iran war ends. The analyst explains that this will be the catalyst that will eventually push the BTC price back above $100,000.
But When Will BTC Reach A New ATH?
The crypto analyst takes a look at past Bitcoin performances in the analysis. The first of these was when the Bitcoin price had done its initial run from the $15,000 low recorded in 2022. Then, there was the rapid rise from $49,000 to $104,000 that took place in 2024. Last but not least was the notable 2025 rally that took the Bitcoin price to $126,000 all-time high of $126,000 in 2026.

All of these bull runs have seen the Bitcoin price rise more than 100% from its previous levels in order to make new all-time highs. Taking this into account, the crypto analyst believes that the next bull run could take the Bitcoin price between $150,000 and $200,000.
Nevertheless, all of these continue to hinge on the improvement of macroeconomic factors. Most notably, the end of the Iran war is likely to be the catalyst that puts the digital asset on the way to its new all-time highs.
