$BTC #BTCFellBelow$69,000Again

We are experiencing one of the strongest adjustments of Bitcoin in recent months.

Since the peak of ~$125,000 in October 2025, BTC has fallen below $67,000–68,000 in recent weeks (today it hovers around $68,000 with contained volatility). Many are already talking about “crypto winter 2.0,” but is it really that way or are we facing a typical healthy correction post-euphoria?

Key points I see in the market right now:

Orderly deleveraging (no mass panic)

Unlike the collapse of FTX or 2022, on-chain data shows that most sales are from short-term holders and deleveraging of leveraged positions. Long-term holders (LTH) continue to accumulate in the $60k–$70k range according to Glassnode and CryptoQuant. That is a sign of structural confidence.

Institutions are still present (although with less inflows)

Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. and Europe had occasional outflows in January-February, but the net flows of the last two weeks returned to positive in several markets. BlackRock, Fidelity, and other giants have not thrown in the towel. This indicates that 'serious money' sees the drop as an opportunity, not as the end.

Macro narrative + AI weighs more than the halving

Bitcoin has behaved like a high-beta risk asset linked to the tech sector. The software correction (IGV -30% since October) and fears that AI will replace value in many companies dragged BTC down. The 4-year cycle post-halving seems to be losing strength; now ETF flows and global liquidity are more influential.

Realistic scenarios for what remains of 2026

Bear case (more pessimistic): If there is prolonged risk-off + high yields → $55,000–$65,000 as a possible bottom.

Base case (the most likely today): Wide range $80,000–$140,000 throughout the year, with central zone $90k–$120k.

Bull case: Renewed liquidity + regulatory clarity (Clarity Act in the U.S.) + institutional adoption → $150,000–$180,000 wouldn't be outrageous.

My personal view (not financial advice):

This drop hurts, but cleans excesses, brings BTC back to more reasonable valuations and filters out weak participants. Historically, corrections of 40–60% post-ATH have been the best accumulation opportunities of the last 10 years.

And you? Are you accumulating in this zone, waiting for lower, or have you already sold part of your position?
