Putting the $BTC decline in numbers:

Peak: $82,500 on May 6

Now: ~$62,500

3-week decline: ~26%

51% below the October 2025 ATH ($126,200)

The historical context:

2021 cycle: a 53% mid-cycle drop (May-July) fi then NEW ATH

2017 cycle: multiple 30-40% corrections on the way up

Every bull cycle has a brutal shakeout that feels terminal

26% in 3 weeks is painful. It s also within the range of NORMAL bull-cycle corrections.
