Expert trader Tony Severino, who correctly predicted Bitcoin&#8217;s top, has raised 
the possibility of a crash to $4,000. This comes as BTC continues to struggle 
to break key resistance levels, signaling that it could be at risk of a deeper 
decline. Expert Trader Raises Potential Bitcoin Drop To $4,000 In an X post, 
Tony Severino questioned the possibility that the next Bitcoin bull market is 
a lower high followed by a lower low. His accompanying chart showed BTC may be 
forming a Head-and-Shoulder pattern, which could spark a crash to $4,000. As 
such, he urged market participants to play the range and cycles. Related

$52,000; Analyst Warns When asked about a potential bottom for Bitcoin in this 
bear market, the expert trader said it&#8217;s more speculative because the idea of 
a bottom can change over time. However, he noted that BTC is bottoming now on 
shorter timeframes and that on the longest timeframes, it could still take a 
while. Severino also recently stated that he expects a maximum drawdown of 
around 72% for Bitcoin in this cycle, implying a bottom at around $34,000. 
Veteran trader Peter Brandt has also predicted that Bitcoin could drop to as 
low as $40,000 before it finds a bottom. Notably, BTC continues to struggle, 
suggesting it remains at risk of a deeper decline despite the recent relief 
rally to $70,000. In an X post, on-chain analytics platform Glassnode noted 
that profit-taking continues to absorb momentum at the $70,000 threshold. The 
platform added that this pattern is consistent with a thin-liquidity regime, 
in which even modest realization events are sufficient to suppress recovery 
attempts. How BTC Could Drop To $30,000 In This Bear Market Crypto analyst 
Willy Woo stated that Bitcoin has only ever existed in a secular global macro 
bull market between 2009 and 2026. He warned that if the global macro breaks 
down, then the $30,000 level is the fallback level of support. The analyst 
highlighted $16,000 as the final line to maintain BTC’s bull trend. Related

What’s The Target? However, Willy Woo believes $45,000 would be a typical 
bear-market bottom for Bitcoin. He noted that this bearish sell-off by 
investors appears to have been exhausted, which may allow the price to 
consolidate sideways for a month and possibly rebound to the mid $70,000 
range. However, this level would likely be rejected. The analyst explained 
that this is because the broader regime is heavily bearish, with both spot and 
futures liquidity deteriorating. Willy Woo predicts that Q4 would be a good 
time for the end of the bearish trend and that Q1 or Q2 2027 would be an 
appropriate time for bullish momentum to return. At the time of writing, the 
Bitcoin price is trading at around $67,800, down in the last 24 hours, 
according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from
