Bitcoin is ballooning to new highs… but can it last? and will Bitcoin Quadruple?

We’ve seen the “fear of missing out” contribute to a nosebleed rise in the price of bitcoin BTCUSD, before, and Fundstrat’s Thomas Lee believes we’re about to see it play out again — but even more pronounced.
The outspoken bitcoin backer told clients this week the world’s top cryptocurrency could ride a wave of FOMO all the way up to $40,000 “within a few months,” thanks to better transparency and a breach of the psychological $10,000 barrier.
He pointed to Grayscale Bitcoin Trust GBTC, as a great way to partake in a rally that would be most welcomed by the crypto bulls who had to suffer through a 74% drop in the price of bitcoin last year.
“Bottom line: Crypto winter looks over,” Lee said. “Investors need to overweight bitcoin. And a good way to gain exposure is via GBTC.”
After touching on a December low of $3,194.96, bitcoin was approaching $9,200, at last check — hovering near levels not seen in more than a year.
