From Terahash to Petahash: Inside 2025’s Most Powerful Bitcoin Mining Rigs

The price of Bitcoin has continued to struggle under the psychological $90,000 
level during the Christmas season, reflecting the sluggish climate of the 
crypto market. While the premier cryptocurrency and the rest of the crypto 
market floundered, other asset classes enjoyed significant Christmas season 
rallies. These recent performances suggest that the Bitcoin price might indeed 
be at the beginning of a bear market. According to the latest on-chain data, 
the price of BTC might be heading down to as low as $41,500 in the imminent 
period of extended downward movement. BTC Price To Reach Next Bottom In 
October 2026 In a new post on the X platform, Alphractal founder and CEO Joao 
Wedson has put forward a target and timeline for the Bitcoin price in the 
coming bear season. According to the on-chain expert, the market leader’s 
price could form its next cycle bottom around early October 2026. Related

Setup? This projection is based on the Repetition Fractal Cycle chart, which 
portrays how market patterns and price movements repeat themselves on 
different scales. Using investor behavioral patterns, this chart helps to 
predict price tops and bottoms across different timeframes. As shown in the 
chart above, a 4-year cycle is marked by various periods, starting with 
accumulation, then markup and distribution, before ending with the bear 
market. Wedson revealed that the most favorable time window for the next 
accumulation phase would likely be between October 6, 2026, and October 16, 
2026, according to historical cycle symmetry. The Alphractal founder added 
that the price target for Bitcoin by the start of this accumulation phase is 
between $41,500 and $45,000. In essence, the bear market phase, which the 
premier cryptocurrency seems to only be at the start of, could see the price 
of BTC fall as much as 50% from the current price point. Wedson warned in his 
post: This is not a fixed rule, nor a deterministic price forecast. It 
represents a fractal rhyme of market cycles — something Bitcoin has 
historically respected more often than ignored. Markets do not repeat exactly 
— but they rhyme with an uncomfortable frequency. If the price of Bitcoin goes 
to around $45,000 from the current point, it would represent a roughly 65% 
decline from the cycle top. This is significantly lower than the over 75% 
correction seen in the last bear market in 2022. Bitcoin Price At A Glance As 
of this writing, the price of BTC stands at around $87,550, reflecting no 
significant movement in the past 24 hours. Related Reading: XRP Price To
