Bitcoin Breaks $80K, But Analysts Warn Against Getting Too Bullish
Bitcoin has reclaimed its price above $80,500 after adding another 3% in the past 24 hours. The rapid turnaround has shifted the mood across the crypto market, but not everyone is convinced it's time to celebrate.
CryptoCon, a closely followed analyst, believes investors may be getting too comfortable with the bullish narrative too early. According to his chart, which maps Bitcoin's price against prevailing narratives at different stages of the market, sentiment can remain bullish for a long time during a genuine bull market, but it also warns against treating the recent recovery as definitive evidence that all downside risk has disappeared.
CryptoCon still considers a scenario where the true cycle bottom arrives toward the end of 2026. His chart illustrates this with a future green box positioned roughly in the $40,000-$50,000 region, accompanied by an imagined sentiment extreme along the lines of Bitcoin never recovering.
