Forecasting market: Will Bitcoin go above $70,000 next week?
Alpha Opportunity
Alpha Thesis
We believe the Manifold contract for Bitcoin being above $70,000 next week is undervalued at 69%, with our estimate at 80%. BTC is currently trading at ~$73,800 — already $3,800 above the threshold. It has been above $70K consistently in March 2026 with strong ETF inflows ($760M last week). A -5.2% decline in one week would be required to breach $70K, which happens only ~15-20% of the time.
