‘Historical average’ could push Bitcoin bottom at $57K level: Analyst
Bitcoin was “rejected” from the $80,000 price level, which is its next resistance zone on the way to reclaiming the $100,000 psychological price level.
The price of Bitcoin (BTC) could bottom out at the $57,000 level in October 2026, despite rallying by more than 29% since the low of about $60,000 in February, according to Bitcoin investor and author Michael Terpin.
Terpin told Cointelegraph that his forecast is based on the “historical average” drawdown of about one year from a market cycle top, which was reached in October 2025 when BTC surged to an all-time high above $126,000, to the cycle bottom.
