Bitcoin price may be showing signs of holding steady, but that alone does not confirm a bottom is in place. A recent post by crypto analyst @CryptoTice_ argues that the current market phase does not yet meet the conditions historically associated with a true Bitcoin price bottom. Instead of focusing on short-term stability, he points to what investors should actually be watching before calling the cycle complete.

In each case, a Bitcoin price bottomed after extended declines and a period of consolidation. In the current cycle, a key region is identified between roughly 800 and 950 days after the halving, marking the stage where previous cycles began to approach their final lows. This portion of the chart is further reinforced by a vertical marker that aligns this phase more closely with the last quarter of 2026. This timing is significant because it challenges the growing belief that a bottom could form earlier in the year. Historically, there is no clear precedent for a Q1, Q2, or Q3 bottom within this cycle structure. Instead, past patterns consistently show prolonged declines followed by a delayed period of stabilization before the market fully bottoms out.
