Understanding Bitcoin’s Realized Price and Market Patterns
Realized Price refers to the average price of all Bitcoin coins currently in circulation, based on the price they last moved. This metric is a valuable tool for understanding the true cost basis of the entire Bitcoin market.
Throughout Bitcoin’s history, each major bear market has seen the asset dip below this level, signaling a market correction.
In previous bear markets, Bitcoin has gone significantly below the Realized Price. For example, in 2011, BTC fell 66% below this level, while in 2015 and 2018, it dropped by 48% and 35%, respectively.
In 2022, Bitcoin bottomed 33% below the Realized Price. According to CryptoBullet, the same trend is likely to repeat in 2026.
What to Expect for Bitcoin’s Price in 2026
As Bitcoin approaches the 2026 bear market, the Realized Price is expected to decline gradually. Currently, the Realized Price is around $56,000, but this could decrease by 2026.
CryptoBullet estimates that by Q3 or Q4 of 2026, the Realized Price could sit around $53,000 to $54,000.
Given the historical patterns, CryptoBullet forecasts a 33% dip below the Realized Price, which would place Bitcoin’s price near $35,000. However, the analyst also points out that the percentage drop could be lower in 2026, potentially between 24% and 31%.
This would result in a price range between $40,000 and $43,000, making it the most likely bottom for Bitcoin.
Although market conditions may vary, historical trends indicate that Bitcoin will likely follow a similar bear market pattern as previous cycles, dipping below its Realized Price. Traders should brace for a potential bottom in the $35,000 to $45,000 range.
