Analyst Predicts Bitcoin May Drop to $80K Before Rally to $180K

A well-known analyst, famous for accurately predicting the 2021 crypto downturn, is now warning that Bitcoin (BTC) may be on the brink of a significant decline.

Dave the Wave believes Bitcoin is currently testing crucial support around the $90,000 mark.

He suggests that Bitcoin could soon follow a pattern similar to its behavior in late 2024, where the price fell to the 0.382 Fibonacci level before making a sharp recovery.

He pointed out that while Bitcoin is revisiting local lows, he hasn’t yet observed the larger market washout he’s anticipating, which could bring BTC down to approximately $80,000.

On a broader scale, Dave is closely monitoring the moving average convergence divergence (MACD) on Bitcoin’s weekly chart. The MACD, a key indicator for trend analysis, is expected to reset at the zero line, paving the way for a dip to the 0.382 Fibonacci level.

Despite this bearish outlook in the short term, Dave the Wave is optimistic about Bitcoin’s long-term prospects, predicting that the sharp decline will set the stage for a major rally that could push the cryptocurrency to $180,000 by the year’s end.
