since many analysts don't see that there will be any significant changes this year,
I fail to agree with this sentence in your post, all other things you've said may be correct but this, because bitcoin analysts, influencers, and others that do the same thing as them can't see or know anything out of the ordinary, in short they create their analysis and predictions to boost their followers and to make money from them, you have to do your own research and avoid following what analysts or influencers advice their followers to do.
Unfortunately, most new users rely almost always on the opinions of analysts without even asking about their scientific background and if they have what qualifies them to carry out such analyzes. Price analyzes are nothing more than opinions that their owners seek to sell on the basis that they are an established scientific fact. We find those analysts either in the media to earn money as a result of the time they will fill in the channel program or in social media channels selling their opinions to beginners.
If they are able to predict the movement of the price or the movement of the market, why not make fortunes through investing instead of issuing analyzes?
