Brandt's analysis indicates that if bitcoin breaches the $65,000 threshold, it could trigger a further decline to around $60,000, potentially falling as low as $48,000.
bitcoin has so far struggled to maintain momentum above the $70,000 mark, showing a 5.6% drop over the past week to a current value of $67,170.
Despite the somewhat bleak near-term outlook, Brandt identifies a silver lining with the potential for a substantial recovery. His analysis outlines the immediate risks and hints at a rally, which he calls the “pump” phase that follows the “dump.”

JPMorgan warns of bitcoin-hyped ETF demand
Meanwhile, financial institutions like JPMorgan have examined the broader implications of market dynamics on bitcoin valuation. JPMorgan has recently highlighted its concerns about the overestimation of demand for bitcoin ETFs.
Their analysis suggests that much of the recent influx into bitcoin ETFs does not represent new capital, but rather a rotation from traditional cryptocurrency exchange portfolios toward “more regulated and seemingly safe” ETFs.
This shift has been driven by the “profitability, regulatory protection, and greater liquidity” that ETFs offer compared to conventional crypto portfolios.
