When will the bitcoin bullish wave end and the crypto winter begin?
There are various predictions about when the current bullish cycle of bitcoin will end.
The historical behavior of BTC allows us to identify when the current bullish wave might end.
Investors should be prepared for a price drop following the euphoria.
In the last two years, the price of bitcoin (BTC) has been rising, recently reaching new price records. The big question with this performance is: when will this bullish wave end and the crypto winter begin?
After a sustained upward trend, a downward streak usually occurs due to massive profit-taking and a decrease in demand.
In general, as CriptoNoticias has reported, specialists agree that the peak of the current bullish cycle of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies will be during 2025. But, when exactly in the year? The answer varies depending on the analysis parameters.
According to the asset management company VanEck, "the cryptocurrency bull market will persist throughout 2025, reaching its first peak in the first quarter." Then, during the summer of the northern hemisphere, they foresee a retracement of approximately 30% for bitcoin and a sharper one, of up to 60%, for altcoins.
"Buy in October and sell in May," says a popular saying in the financial world, which is due to market trends. Since summer begins in the northern hemisphere in June, certain economic activities decrease due to the vacation period. As a result, markets tend to fall and recover in the autumn that begins in October.
With this in mind, analysts from VanEck see a possible second bullish peak in the year, with major crypto assets regaining momentum and reclaiming historical highs by the end of 2025. At the peak of the cycle, they expect bitcoin to reach around USD 180,000, ether (ETH) to USD 6,000, and solana (SOL) to USD 500.
