An analysis suggests that January 13, 2027, rather than April 13, which was previously mentioned as a Bitcoin (BTC) buying timing, could be the key entry point for the next cycle.

According to the cryptocurrency media outlet Bitcoinist on April 9 (local time), crypto analyst Mags proposed January 13, 2027, as the next buying period, stating that long-term profit maximization is possible through the '500-day strategy' based on Bitcoin's halving structure.

The core of this strategy is to buy 500 days before the halving, hold it regardless of market fluctuations, and then sell it 500 days later. Mags emphasized the importance of maintaining a position without being swayed by short-term price fluctuations, explaining that repeating the same process can maximize profits for each cycle.

Indeed, similar trends were observed in previous cycles. On August 24, 2025, a sell signal occurred around $109,000, which served as a major profit-taking zone for investors who entered approximately 500 days before the 2024 halving. Although Bitcoin later formed a peak above $126,000 in October 2025, this period was also considered a valid exit strategy, and the current price has fallen by more than 45% from its peak.

Past data also supports the validity of the strategy. In the 2016-2019 cycle, a pattern of buying near the bottom and selling near the peak was repeated, and in the 2019-2022 cycle, buying between $3,000 and $5,000 and selling above $69,000 resulted in returns of approximately 1,200% to 2,200%.

Mags analyzed that since the 500-day strategy for the current cycle has already ended, preparations for the next opportunity should be made. Considering that the next halving is expected on May 27, 2028, January 13, 2027, could be a strategic entry point.
