Bitcoin’s price action is similar to a lot of other bubbles in history. In fact, BTC’s chart and patterns have striking similarities to the DotCom bubble, Qualcomm Charts etc., which could be due to the fractal nature that is witnessed everywhere in nature and in human behavior. However, an interesting correlation between Bitcoin’s spot price and Bitcoin Futures was spotted by the Founder and CEO of NodeSource, Joe McCann.

McCann’s analysis suggested that Bitcoin Futures prices ‘forecasted’ a story for Bitcoin spot prices and later, followed it promptly. McCann tweeted,

Once again, #bitcoin futures forecast story for the spot price.
