"It falls from here"...Bitcoin 50% plunge warning emerges

▲ Bitcoin (BTC) Price Drop

Market tension is rapidly rising as an analysis suggests that Bitcoin (BTC) is facing a massive decline after a short-term rebound.

Crypto media outlet NewsBTC recently reported that market analyst 'Crypto Bullet' diagnosed Bitcoin's current trend as a bearish structure, stating that the cycle bottom has not yet formed.

This analysis is based on a 'Double Zigzag (WXY)' wave structure. Bitcoin has been undergoing a correction phase, repeatedly falling and rebounding since its 2025 peak, and the current upward trend is interpreted as merely an 'intermediate rebound' rather than a new bull market.

According to the analysis, Bitcoin has the potential to rebound short-term, exceeding $80,000 and reaching up to $85,000. However, this range has been identified as a strong resistance zone and a critical point where a sharp reversal could occur after the rise.

The key is the final downward wave that will unfold afterward. Crypto Bullet predicted that if the 'Y wave' begins, Bitcoin will plummet to form its ultimate bottom. The expected downside target at that time is around $40,000, which represents approximately a 50% drop from the $80,000 level.

The timing of the decline was also specifically presented. The analyst believes that Bitcoin is likely to form a bottom between September and October 2026, after an additional correction period of approximately five months. This explanation states that it is a time structure similar to past Bitcoin decline cycles.

In the market, this scenario is interpreted as a warning signal for a 'bull trap' possibility. If a large influx of buying power, mistaking the $80,000 breakthrough as the start of a new bull market, occurs, a massive liquidation could follow during the subsequent sharp decline.

Ultimately, Bitcoin has entered a phase where short-term upward expectations and medium-to-long-term downside risks overlap simultaneously. If a complex scenario of a sharp decline after a rebound materializes, market volatility is highly likely to expand dramatically.
