That is a long way off, they have a lot of games they can play to keep the dollar going for probably at least another couple decades. But let's say we do reach the point where the dollar hyperinflates, the bitcoin price would go parabolic. We saw this with currencies in the past that rapidly devauled. During those times, in USD terms bitcoin didn't move much in USD price, but in terms of a rapidly inflating currency it made new ATH after ATH. If the dollar dose hyper inflate, we probably won't cash bitcoin out for another currency at all, bitcoin will just replace the dollar and we'll price and pay for everything using bitcoin. That's the vision at least, no idea if that'd ever happen if they can keep USD puttering along for another century where bitcoin is just the defect savings account for the world and dollar remains the medium of exchange.
A conservative prediction is a mere 150k or something, and this could line up with something blowing up on the AI front causing global problems. A moderate prediction based on diminishing returns says something between there and 200k. I think anything over 200k is optimistic and would require more interest than what we saw last cycle (so it could happen if retail got more involved this time around, but if it were only the case that the same type of buyers as last cycle came in, it could prove more challenging). I do see a potential for 'explosive' growth if we have issues with the US dollar AND retail gets very involved. In such a case, 250k is not unimaginable, but I think it would be more optimistic than most people consider probable. Personally, I will only feel confident about anything over 150k if we reach 150k very soon. If we don't reach a new ATH by Q2 2027, I think anything optimistic is off the table barring crazy economic news over the following year. Just keeep in mind both that we have diminishing returns and diminishing growth in interest on one side, but also that the US dollar and the global economic outlook have some serious headwinds to contend with on the other. This next cycle—more than previous ones—will depend on global risk and economic outlook the was things are shaping up. Not entirely unlike how the pandemic had a profound effect on crypto prices in the previous cycle.
if you model the diminished returns of the highs with a quadratic fit the next ATH is $218373
ATH soon We need max pain for cycle bros
Nobody knows any better than you. If you buy and hold it really doesn’t matter when you buy. If YOU don’t think BTC will reach new ATH then don’t invest. If you think it will eventually then it doesn’t make much difference if you buy at 50/60/70/80k.
I expect that we need more pain. If this was it, it's been the easiest bear market we've had. By far. We've had a small pump and you've already claimed victory. Are you ready to be Bush on the aircraft carrier? Anyway, to answer your question. Why would you assume people who think the bottom is below $60k have money on the sideline waiting for a lower entry? I would much rather be a pessimist price wise until we're a lot closer to the ATH, it's much easier on psyche. A lot of pumps are followed by a dump, especially in the bear market. If you're this excited about a fairly small pump all things considered, you'll probably be equally distraught if we drop down to $60k or below. It normally takes a long time to break the previous cycles ATH. You're better of just DCA'ing and waiting it out. You can have price expectations and not act on it. If you're sitting on a stack of cash waiting for the bottom, your an idiot.
>I bought $10k of Bitcoin on October 8 when it was around $121k. Literally two days later, the huge crash started This is incredibly common, you bought the top. The thing you should be asking yourself is why? Which will help you better understand the psychology of investing (fear and greed). When BTC is at or near-all time highs and pumping, everyone wants in. Even people who otherwise wouldn't be interested, because they're seeing people all over social media talking about it or seeing big returns and getting fomo (fear of missing out). Then when BTC was near long-term low ($50s and 60s) you likely wanted nothing to do with it ("it'll probably go lower"), but that's the time to buy. When everyone else is fearful, be greedy. When everyone else is greedy (like when you bought the top) be fearful. >Do you think Bitcoin will eventually return to its old ATH? lol
Get in line. A lot of us bought at the ATH.
Yes it will always reach new ATH. The only time you lose is when you sell.
Threesome when it hits another ATH?
He can just avoid that fate by buying now before we hit ATH. Think he will or will he wait for $300k?
Juist daarom komt er een dip na een nieuwe ATH. Snel verkopen als je uit de kosten bent. De whales slaan dan juist weer goedkoper in..
Not only will it reach 121k, it will surpass it to a new ATH
You mean future 30k entry people when 40k hits who then become 20k entry people if 30k hits, the type of people who will always say the current price isn’t low enough because “it’ll go down more bro”, the kind of people who when we reach an ATH say “damn why didn’t you tell me to buy when it was lower?” I don’t say much to those people, there’s nothing you really CAN say.
Just chill because we aren’t even down 75% from the ATH and the economy isn’t doing well we still got time for the dip of dips we didn’t expect $16k last time…so just tight it’s a comeing
BRO my btc stack is still -30% we still so far away from ATH hard to be happy
ATL 2015 → ATH 2017: 1,064 days ATH 2017 → ATL 2018: 364 days ATL 2018 → ATH 2021: 1,064 days ATH 2021 → ATL 2022: 364 days ATL Nov 2022 → ATH Oct 6, 2025: 1,064 days ATL \~Oct 2026
It's exactly the same as mine, but we differ in guesses by $10/20K. Some people would say it would make no difference if BTC hits a new ATH. HOWEVER, id say it makes a huge difference, if you continue waiting and miss the bandwagon 😉
Best to only buy when it hits a new ATH again.
I have a couple friends who always bring up bitcoin when it’s at an ATH and when it’s in a free-fall, they always say they wish they bought at such and such a time, and they always say they’re waiting for the bottom when its crashing. It’s the same group chat conversation every few years, funny thing is none of them ever actually buy. To them, now I just say, “you would have bought by now if you were going to do it” lol.
Si vous voulez " timer " faites -50% à partir de l ATH et commencer a rentrer par palier.. Fixer un prix et faire all in c'est juste un truc de rêveur
Even at 80k, we’re still at a steep sale price compared to the ATH. No idea if it will ever reach that mark again but it has in the past so I’m hopeful 😇
Not to mention we made a new ATH prior to the last halving

reddit bros love considering -1.9% from ATH as a crash
ATH by end of year I’d say Source: my hopes and dreams
Meh, in 2018 or 19 it went from 3k to 13k and everyone thought it was over, then it dumped to 5k and didn’t break new ATH for a couple more years. 95k or 100k doesn’t break the cycle , it confirms it…. New ATH breaks the cycle
When BTC didn’t even break $60k on the Coldcard hack news, that should’ve been a sign. It was already down almost 50% from the $125k ATH. At some point you gotta just take a position lol.
Thats healthier than extreme greed and euphoria. Id be more bullish myself after reading that. When elon musk starts telling people it will be used as currency in Mars in 2030 and people have become delirious and it's hitting ATH thats when to get out.
My point was that somewhere down the line it wont drop and easily pass previous ATH
1100 wont change your life. Easy come easy go money. Id want it to at least double before even considering it. Do you think bitcoin will never, ever hit another ATH? That seems unlikely to me... Be it 3 months, or 3 years, it will eventually hit a new ATH. And you will regret not cashing out a much more substantial number, rather than merely 1100 that will be gone and spent very quickly
If we are going from previous ATH monthly close to bottom before reversal we would see a full reversal by August. Not September, October, November, December or whatever everyone has been saying. This is the 4 year cycle. We topped in July,2025. not October
The post isn’t clear to me either. But I’m assuming, general idea based on slide 4 is ATH was Oct ‘25 which means the bottom should be \~ Nov 5? Did I read that correct @southrefuse5214
It's a space filled with garbage people these days. But let me shill here ... ... Thousands of times Bitcoin has been declared dead. Ten-ish times it perhaps seemed appropriate to some. Every single time it has gone back up to new ATH. Every time, 15 years. Different economies, different world events, different looking "analysis". 🤷♂️
For sure. Shorting while you're coming down from ATH makes some sense. Might go down 85%, might go down 50%. But if you're only starting to leverage at 50% down, you've missed most of the price action and now face outsized risk for the remaining potential gains.
Did you forget what has happened in the past? From ATH to all time low was more than 50%.
If you believe in the long term success of Bitcoin, then we can assume eventually the price will recover and surpass its prior ATH. Starting a short position 50% below ATH on an asset as volatile as BTC just doesn't sound smart. Like at all.
Start buying gradually at ATH of two cycles ago (was $69k this cycle). Start selling gradually at previous ATH (will be $120k this cycle). Never sell at a loss unless you legit need it for emergency. Whatever you don’t unload before the bear market starts, hold for next cycle.
What do you think about October 5th? People are saying that the bear market cycle will end and the bull market cycle will begin on October 5th, with a turnaround starting around the $40k–$50k range. In my opinion, a cycle doesn’t necessarily have to start on a strictly fixed date; I think the bull cycle might have already begun. The big market players don't really need to push the price all the way back down, so the cycle could very well start from current levels. People argue it will drop further because during this cycle, the price hasn't fallen as much from its ATH compared to previous bear markets—whereas it dropped by 70–80% in past cycles, it has only dropped around 50% this time.
Hahaha I paid off my house with BTC in 2025, right on the cycle schedule. I'm so confident about the 2029 ATH that I'm building a new house right now.
I'm not saying we have or havn't hit the bottom yet. I don't know, but i don't exactly understand what your point is and who are these people who base their charts on the actual halving date. Its the length of certain milestones and indicators within the 4 year cycle that has stayed very consistent over btc's lifetime. There are technical indicators that say we have probably hit the bottom. There are also good arguments that we may not have yet, but these are more based on historical trends. If we have hit the bottom it is way earlier than previous cycles. To the point where its un- ordinary. Also to consider btcs percentage drops from ATH to its bottom. For example 2011 from ATH dropped 93.8% to its bottom, 2013-2015 -85.9%, 2017-2018 -84.2%, and 2021-2022 -77.6%. If we have hit the bottom then that is a 54% drop from 2025 ATH. So 93.8% - 85.9% - 84.2% - 77.6% - (54%). Sequentially and historically its extra ordinary. There are arguments both ways. Time will tell.

When I want to sound like a big shot, I thinks about 12BTC x ATH and say I dropped a million pounds on a miner 😂
Not exactly. I usually keep some cash aside and buy when BTC drops a certain percentage from its ATH. I find it easier than deciding whether each dip is worth buying
The drawdown before the ATH was not 80% or anywhere close. There were always multiple corrections up to 30% on the way up.
> Those who think we bounced off the bottom or have already bottomed are delusional…there isn’t enough despair posts and whining about when will it go up yet and we weren’t anyware near 75% declines from ATH bottom the bottom should be in the $40k-$55k range for it to be the bottom I honestly hope you're right. 💰😜😁
Those who think we bounced pff the bottom or have already bottomed are delusional…there isn’t enough despair posts and whining about when will it ho up yet and we weren’t anyware near 75% declines from ATH bottom should be in the $40k-$55k range for it to be the bottom
Never forget about the people calling for "100k end of the year" (2021), also the "200k end of the year" (2025). Only to pump to ATH during Q4 and start crashing from there. At this point the moment people start talking about "supercycle" is the time to take profits.
I have some slight bear tendencies right now, but I certainly wouldn’t risk going short. In fact, I wouldn’t even delay buying for a deeper bottom. We’re already far enough below ATH that this is a good enough time to get in.
Exactly, just like guessing a date for an ATH, especially if hundreds if not thousands of these kind of posts exist online
Is this satire? Dude's jerking off on a 10k increase and expect the ATH to 10x?
Genuine question. What’s the point in holding for 10 plus years if not to make money and pull out before the drop out. How high are the expectations and what benefit does holding give you if you already are up by an exorbitant amount. Someone break that down for me because I get so lost when people say you should have sold at an ATH or you’re supposed to keep holding. It’s a highly volatile market so if you’re holding then you basically are using it for its intended uses
Realistically we could never hit ATH ever again. Nothing in this life is guaranteed, and assuming history repeats is the first mistake. Now, if you want to argue the fact of what BITCOIN is “supposed to do” that’s one thing, what it actually does in the future is another. All it takes is one catastrophic finding and Bitcoin is toast. With that being said, all of the questions I asked you become relevant and need to be answered, for me to answer your question.
betting that btc will reach 200k at next ATH or something even more silly.

Curious how you will guage the right time to sell at ATH - will it just be that magic number we saw last time? Its hard to sell then when we're still surging. But I think thats a set point when there will be lots of people taking profits which will affect the performance at that time.
You dont need to know any of that to answer my Question which is - Whats YOUR exit strategy. I dont want to cash in until we at least hit our last ATH.
Do you beleive BTC will never, ever hit another ATH? I think its unreasonable to say it will never hit another ATH in our lifetimes. I dont particularly care if it's this bull run, or 2028/9 after the halving. Irrelevant. I've a nice stack of sats so im ready. You seem to be thinking short term. 150k is absolutely not unrealistic at some point. More likely than not imo. We just dont know when. If it's 4 months from now, great, if it's 3 years from now, we'll than thats fine as well. Who cares...
People don't want that shit. It's still 50k below ATH btw.
Pull an Anchored vwap from the $126k ATH and the $116k lower high on the daily. We are in the exact same spot as mid-january and early may. Regardless of the bullish signals, i'm cautious until we break $81k and flip it to support
100k by December? Bruh, it can get to 100k by next week or two weeks.. but then that trap will likely end and you’ll see 60k again by October November and December.. nothing is testing ATH till 2027 quarter 2.. but I’m no expert, nor a gambling man.
The upside (given the ATH and institutional adoption) far outweigh the risks of losing everything
It will be 365 days since the last ATH. A lot of bitcoiners sold/took profits in october-march and they still haven't bought in. Many of them are planning to buy back in mid october after seeing the first week of October.
I don’t think the bottom is in either. This is a typical ABC correction. The B wave where we are in now can feel pretty euphoric and believe it or not ,but can go as high as ATH, after that the C wave will most likely make new lows.
Probably consolidate for a while there are a lot of trapped buyers from ATH waiting for their money back
Plenty of those like yourself, are the reason the bottom may be in. Only time will tell. How high must btc go before you believe it is a bull run to go to ATH?
DCA is all about not caring about prices, so not sure what you're talking about. A person who started DCA during last ATH, would be already into green rn. While most guys posting on here about analyses and predictions are in the red now. Easy as that, really.
BTC usually starts the bull cycle with a new high, then Alts take over and finally, end of year, BTC does its new ATH. Just to point out that a Late 2028 High for BTC would not invalidate a Q3/Q4 2029 ATH.
That’s exactly what it looks like….. BTC is supposed to, and most likely will go down another leg to around 45K and then move sideways above 50k for a few months….. ONLY then will there be enough capital to drive up to another ATH.
October was the worst as it ended the Bullrun at ATH.
It is simple. Start a DCA scheme that you can sustain for the long run. During deep dips, increase the DCA amount slightly. During ATH periods, you may want to decrease the DCA amount. This is the most stress-less method I can think of.
I’m exiting next ATH so I can pay my house off
I’m stacking to get to 1.0, since 2021, will see where it stands and likely sell at next ATH, wait for dip and buy back in, as you suggest
yes, if I sold at the last ATH I would be happy with it.
Anchored VWAP from the ATH, typical late mid term year 20-40% pump?
What is the strategy for weekly vs: monthly or bi annually? Is there a way to set this up so that its like an auto payment? I have considered doing this monthly or quarterly, or perhaps in some cases for a year at a time if I am sitting at a nice ATH. What I want and need as a montly supplement to my pension income is not really a lot. I would just keep a contigency account and top it up to a certain balance - say 12K Its more than I need, but I am planning to be in South east asia, without health insurance - so some of that is readily available emergency funds in case I land in hospital - would take care of the first few days at least.
I had an unexpected costly event in my life and when I saw our last ATH I made a quick decision to sell some into USDT - and then - after paying my bill I still had a surplus and was able to buy back in and recover my position, which felt reallt great.
We also broke ATH before halving last time too. Then we topped early as well. Everything a little early.
This. The biggest problem I have right now is I cannot earn interest on my BTC so I want to sell some and convert to monthly income for my modest retirement abroad. I really hate the idea of having to reduce my principle (selling coins) when if it were Fiat, I could invest it to give me income and still grow, albeit modestly. We dont live forever, and I am now counting my good years left. If I could see the same numbers as our last ATH I might just sell some then. If I did I owuld have been quite happy with that sum. But I did not and I knew I was stuck into another cycle again whereby my investment was not 'ready' to access yet. I could just fix a number - like say 4% of one (x #'s of coins) and just take that same every year to supplement and do that for 30 years. By then I would be 95 and likely dedd. (I just need some pension supplement)
Your comment won't. Even 60k was absurdly low considering it usually doesn't fall much below the previous ATH.
Surreal? It was written in the sky that it would spike again. Next ATH is 200k then 100k then 250k and so on. Be ready
Bitcoin's recent price movement could be ironic, relative to that statement attributed to Buffett, if it were plausible that he ever said it. But it's not plausible and the current price is still well off of the most recent ATH. So it comes off as rather weak engagement bait. Wait 'til the next all time high and quote his actual words. Then it'll be ironic. Still kinda stupid though. Buffett is a famous investor and Bitcoin isn't intended to be an investment. That it serves as an investment is only a side effect of the adoption process towards establishing itself as the Internet native global reserve currency.
My exit strategy is I will sell everything at cycle ATH. Then buy at cycle bottom. Rinse and repeat. It works 100% of the time. I can't time it though so I just HODL until one day I need cash thats when I sell. Probably in a decade.
I really hope the people waiting for the dip get caught with their pants down. 40k is an unreasonable entry to wait for compared to our last ATH
Shorting after a massive drop from ATH into a 2026 market that has twice tested support for 60k is a coin toss. They get what they deserve. I don't see the upside, but my brain has been soaked in alcohol for the past 30 years.
BTC HODL jusqu'à nouvel ATH du prochain Bull 150 ou 200 k . Prise de bénéfice partiel en DCA Mensuel si besoin de liquidités . 64 aussi pas encore à la retraite
Bitcoin went nowhere near its potential last year. And altseason was literally halted for the first time. I'm sorry but I don't see it reaching another ATH while he's in office when retail and institutional investors have already lost trust.
I will drop massive shortly after and people will doom it again. But for the longer run it will always behave like that and also see a new ATH and the reason is as easy as it gets. People can manipulate it and make money of it. And as long as that is poss crypto will thrive. I sold a little to early but made profit anyway now its time to wait and watch it go down again.
Well people always do this also I am sure we will see $100K BTC before end of year. Not too sure about ATH Though.
or just enjoy an ATH if the stock market makes a new ATH super inflated, then enjoy the new bottom
The beatings will continue until it reaches new ATH.
Surreal? We're still way below ATH
