AI Phishing, Supply Chains, and $3.5B Lost — Crypto’s Brutal 2025

After setting a new all-time high back in early October, the Bitcoin price 
entered into an extended downtrend period, losing over $40,000 of its value to 
drop below $90,000. During this time, sentiment and market participation have 
understandably been negative, with investors pulling back from the 
cryptocurrency. However, with the year drawing to an end, a crypto analyst has 
explained what is expected for Bitcoin next, and why investors aren’t ready 
for what’s coming. Why Bitcoin Price Could Be Gearing Up For A Big Move 
Pseudonymous analyst Crypto Waterman took to X to outline the reasons why they 
believe that Bitcoin could be on the verge of a breakout. While many believe 
that the top is in, Waterman argues the opposite, using the trends from 
previous cycle tops to show why the Bitcoin price is yet to top. Related

Different League For one, the analyst argues that pullbacks like these are 
part of each cycle, and the previous cycles were no different. But other than 
the pullback, there is also the gold and silver trend, with both having hit 
all-time highs in December 2025, while Bitcoin has continued to struggle. 
Waterman explained that in previous cycles, both gold and silver hit new all- 
time highs before the Bitcoin price followed later. As such, with both of 
these assets already hitting new peaks, the crypto analyst believes that 
leaving Bitcoin to buy gold and silver isn’t a smart choice. Additionally, one 
of the major markers of a Bitcoin cycle top has been the performance of the 
Coinbase app on the App Store. In past cycles, Coinbase had risen to number 1 
before Bitcoin peaked. Meanwhile, it only reached Number 280 in October when 
BTC made its $126,000 all-time high. Thus, it suggests that this isn’t the 
top. Why This Is Not The Top Other factors are also mentioned as to why this 
is not the top for the Bitcoin price, one of which is the altcoin market 
performance. Altcoins have continued to struggle during this time, with major 
alts being down between 60% and 80% from their all-time highs and no sign of 
an altcoin season in sight. Related Reading: Investment Firm CEO Drops Utility 
Bomb On XRP, Is Community Hype A Detriment? The Crypto Fear &amp; Greed Index also 
did not cross the 90 mark this cycle, suggesting that euphoria did not reach 
its peak, as well as the MVRV Z-Score remaining below 3, when the trend is for 
the Z-Score to reach above 6 before it tops. Given this, the crypto analyst 
suggests that a number of things will happen. Investors who exited the market 
back in early 2025 are expected to move back in. Then, those who left in 2024 
will follow, and then the 2021-2022 investor cohort will return. Finally, new 
retail investors join the market, which will be the signal to exit the market.
