$BTC $58,035.
That’s where Bitcoin went this week. The lowest price since September 2024. A full 54% below the October 2025 all-time high of $126,200.
What I do know is this. The people saying “crypto is dead” right now are the same people who said it in 2018 at $3,200, in 2020 at $4,000, in 2022 at $16,000.
I want to be honest about how I’m processing this because I think pretending it doesn’t sting would be dishonest. It stings.
But here’s what I keep coming back to when I sit with it.
Sentiment published data this week showing bearish social media sentiment is at peak levels for 2026. More doom posts, more “crypto is dead” tweets, more people calling bottoms sarcastically than at any point this year.
Historically — and I mean this goes back to 2018, 2020, 2022 — peak bearish social sentiment has coincided almost perfectly with market bottoms. Not the top of a move down. The actual floor before the recovery.
AI models are currently forecasting BTC between $60K–$68K over the next 30 days. Some analysts are calling for $42K–$53K. The range is massive because nobody actually knows.
It wasn’t dead then. It’s not dead now. DYOR!!
