14-day crypto predictions: As cryptocurrencies rally, sentiment shifts to slightly bullish on Bitcoin
Our crypto prediction panel turns neutral overall on six popular cryptocurrencies through the week of August 15.
Bitcoin trades around $23,000 after successfully holding the previous support level of $21,000. However, macroeconomic factors still weigh down on the crypto market, meaning we could see another attempt lower in the coming weeks.
Finder’s crypto prediction panel turned slightly bullish on Bitcoin in the most recent survey looking out through the week of August 15.
Finder’s cryptocurrency prediction panel comprises 15 experts in the field. Five of them rotate to share their predictions for the following two weeks on six major cryptocurrencies each week.
Finder’s experts turn neutral

Where our crypto prediction panel stands
| This week | Last week | |
|---|---|---|
| Bitcoin | Slightly bullish | Slightly bearish |
| Ethereum | Bullish | Slightly bullish |
| Dogecoin | Slightly bearish | Neutral |
| Litecoin | Neutral | Slightly bearish |
| XRP | Bearish | Slightly bearish |
| Solana | Slightly bearish | Neutral |
| Overall | Neutral | Slightly bearish |
The panel’s outlook on Bitcoin (BTC) is slightly bullish, a change from the week before when it was slightly bearish. Bitcoin bounced off of $21,000 and pushed through $23,000. We could see a move to $25,000 if this price holds.
The panel’s verdict on Ethereum (ETH) is bullish, a change from the week before when it was slightly bullish. Ether trades in a new range of between $1,400 and $1,750. A break above means we’ll see $2,000 next.
The panel’s outlook on Dogecoin (DOGE) is slightly bearish, a change from the week before when it was neutral. DOGE trades at $0.07. Its next resistance level is $0.075.
The panel’s verdict on Litecoin (LTC) is neutral, a change from the week before when it was slightly bearish. LTC trades slightly below $60. A break above this number opens the way toward $70 next. Otherwise, we may see the price test $50 once again.
The panel’s outlook on Ripple (XRP) is bearish, a change from the week before when it was slightly bearish. XRP failed to break through $0.4. That’s still a target, especially if Bitcoin moves to $25,000 soon.
The panel’s verdict on Solana (SOL) is slightly bearish, a change from the week before when it was neutral. SOL still trades in a narrow range of between $35 and $45.
