- Market Correction: Over the past eight months, Bitcoin has dropped 47%, recently falling below $70,000, which has shaken investor confidence, particularly as Bitcoin ETF outflows accelerate, impacting market liquidity.
- Investor Behavior Shift: Even staunch Bitcoin supporter Michael Saylor has begun selling some of his holdings, reflecting a shift in market sentiment that may lead more investors to reassess their positions.
- Cyclical Volatility: Bitcoin's history shows it follows a four-year cycle, and it is currently in the 'total collapse' phase, with expectations of continued pressure in the coming months; however, historical data suggests a rebound opportunity will follow.
- Future Outlook: While Bitcoin may decline further in the short term, analysts predict that by 2027, it will regain momentum and potentially reach new highs during the next halving in 2028, suggesting investors should remain patient for market recovery.
