En expertanalytiker säger att Bitcoins expansion är över, och att den inte kommer att återhämta sig förrän detta är över

[kim]

Bitcoin’s next move is one of the most debated questions in the market right now. One side sees the current price structure as a base for a push to new all-time highs, pointing to strength around $70,000 and repeated rebounds above this price level. Another camp believes the recent action is only a pause within a broader downtrend, with more range consolidation and lower levels still ahead before any real rally begins.

That divide is exactly where expert analyst Tony Severino steps in with a very cautious outlook. According to the crypto trading expert, Bitcoin might not see a rally again until complacency is crushed.

A Warning Against The Bullish Complacency

Severino, who posts under the handle @tonythebullBTC on X, recently declared that “the 16-year Bitcoin expansion is over.” This is a statement that carries particular weight given his track record. He had previously anticipated that Bitcoin’s bull run would end in 2025 and projected that the corrective wave ushering in a bear market could extend as far as mid-2027.

Severino’s latest comments directly challenge the idea that Bitcoin is simply gearing up for another rally. The comments were in response to a sarcastic post by another analyst. In his view, the widespread belief that the Bitcoin price will continue to rise indefinitely is misplaced.

Severino describes the current environment as one dominated by complacency, where investors have grown too comfortable buying dips without questioning the broader structure. According to him, it is because of people like this who think it will only go up forever.

Destruction First, Then Growth

The most important part of Severino’s outlook is not just that a downturn could happen, but that it is necessary. Only when that complacency is fully broken, he contends, can a new cycle begin on a stronger footing.

“This destruction and reset is necessary for growth again. But not until complacency is crushed,” he said. “Complacency says: ‘Same asset, same behavior.’ Reality: Same asset, different environment = different outcome distribution,” he continued.

This is not the first time Tony Severino has sounded the alarm of complacency for investors who are strongly bullish despite Bitcoin’s recent price struggles. Back in February, he pointed out that the Bitcoin price may have already reached a 16-year cyclical peak.

Notably, this 16-year cyclical peak concept has become a recurring theme in his broader outlook. That same idea resurfaced again in his latest remarks, where he noted the complacency among some investors.

In another analysis, Severino predicted a somewhat -72% maximum drawdown from Bitcoin’s October 2025 peak price of $126,000. If that scenario plays out, it would place Bitcoin’s price in the region of $34,000 before a more sustainable bottom can form.
