This Trader Makes the Scariest Bitcoin (BTC) Price Prediction Ever: “Stop Dreaming About a New ATH”

BTC0,92%
MON5,92%

Top analyst, CryptoBullet, just dropped one of the most bearish Bitcoin (BTC) price takes of the entire cycle, and it’s getting a lot of attention

His view is simple, blunt, and probably uncomfortable for most Bitcoin holders: the market has already peaked, buyers are exhausted, and a new all-time high is not coming anytime soon.

He backs this claim with a weekly chart that shows a clear pattern forming across the past four major corrections

According to him, every single leg down has been bigger than the previous one, while every pump has been weaker. In his words, “Bitcoin is rolling over. Don’t you see that?”

What the BTC Chart Is Actually Showing

CryptoBullet’s chart highlights four key corrections from 2023 to 2025. The first one was mild, the second was sharper, the third was even worse, and the fourth – the one we’re in now – is the steepest of them all.

He points out that the Bitcoin price rallies have been losing strength at the same time. Pumps that once hit 162%, 106%, and 60% are shrinking with each cycle. His argument is that this trend reflects buyer exhaustion. The market simply isn’t responding the way it should if bulls were still in control.

The current leg down is the most aggressive on the chart. Instead of a slow correction, the Bitcoin price fell straight through support. To CryptoBullet, that’s a textbook sign that the market is forming a lower high, not gearing up for a breakout.

In short, his message is that Bitcoin already topped out, and the chart structure is transitioning from bullish to bearish.

The reason this take stands out is because it cuts against the dominant narrative. Most analysts still talk about ETFs, institutional inflows, and supply shocks. They’re expecting the typical blow-off top that has defined every Bitcoin cycle.

CryptoBullet is saying the opposite: this cycle is breaking the pattern. According to him, the structure is weakening, not strengthening

He believes the repeated lower highs are the strongest warning sign a bull market can show. If true, Bitcoin could drift down into the mid-$50k range or even lower as the trend unwinds.

Is Bitcoin (BTC) Price Really “Done”?

His analysis is certainly dramatic, but it’s not completely unreasonable. One does get the sense that Bitcoin has clearly slowed down in the last few months and the corrections are getting harsher. Market sentiment is shaky, and major players are taking profit more aggressively this cycle.

But calling Bitcoin “done” is a big jump. The Bitcoin price has broken every bearish macro prediction for more than a decade

It has recovered from deeper crashes and uglier charts than this one. Buyer exhaustion can flip quickly – especially with catalysts like ETF inflows, halving effects, or macro shifts.

CryptoBullet’s chart does show a worrying pattern. But patterns break all the time. This entire bearish structure could be invalidated in weeks if the Bitcoin price flips its current resistance and regains momentum.

For now, though, his warning is clear: if the market keeps printing lower highs, bulls may have to reconsider expectations. Whether he’s right or wrong, the next few weekly candles are going to be important, and probably emotional.
