Bitcoin Smashes $100K Barrier—Analyst’s Bold 3-Year Prediction Sends Shockwaves Through Crypto
Move over gold—Bitcoin just rewrote the rules. The original cryptocurrency blasted past $100,000 today, leaving traditional asset managers scrambling to update their PowerPoint decks.
The prophecy unfolds: One prominent analyst’s 2022 forecast—dismissed as ’hopium’ by Wall Street suits—just hit its first major target. Now they’re doubling down with a roadmap to $250K by 2028.
Institutional FOMO alert: BlackRock’s BTC holdings crossed 300,000 coins this week. Meanwhile, pension funds still allocating 0.5% to ’digital gold’ are getting side-eye from their boards.
The crypto winter? More like a nuclear summer. With the halving in the rearview and ETFs sucking up supply faster than miners can produce, the math looks brutal for shorts. Just don’t tell the SEC.
After months of sideways movement and uncertainty, Bitcoin has finally made a big move, it’s back above the key psychological level of $100,000. According to well-known crypto analyst Rekt Capital, this is not just a price jump, it’s the start of something huge.
He says a new bitcoin Four-Year Cycle has begun, and if history repeats, there’s money to be made this year.
So let’s walk through this timeline and see what’s coming next.
New Cycle Begins with a Bullish Signal
Rekt Capital’s tweet highlights that 2025 isn’t just any year. It’s expected to be the peak year of Bitcoin’s current bull market cycle. His analysis is based on historical Bitcoin data, where every four-year period follows a similar pattern, a strong bull run, a bear market, and then a period of recovery or bottoming out.
It’s 2025
A new #BTC Four Year Cycle has therefore begun
2025 will be the year of the $BTC Bull Market peak
2026 will be the year of the Bitcoin Bear Market
And 2027 will be the Bottoming Out year to precede an entirely brand new future Bull Market#Crypto #Bitcoin pic.twitter.com/xlphQM3r8f
By reaching $100K again, Bitcoin has likely kicked off the most explosive phase of the cycle, what many call the “bull peak” year.
What History Tells Us About Bitcoin’s Cycles
Rekt Capital’s 12-month chart shows how Bitcoin has behaved over the previous four-year cycles. The pattern is clear,
The bull market peak (like 2021)
A big drop or bear market (like 2022)
A period of accumulation or recovery (like 2023–2024)
A breakout and strong rally (2025)
2026 — The Bitcoin Bear Market
Based on this chart, next year won’t be as fun. Rekt Capital warns that 2026 is likely to bring a bear market. Prices could drop sharply, and many investors who enter too late may face losses.
This is the part of the cycle when emotions run high, and only smart planning can help you survive the dip.
2027 — The Bottoming Out Phase
By 2027, the worst of the bear market should be over. This is when Bitcoin usually hits its lowest point before gearing up for the next big run. If you missed the 2025 bull party, 2027 might be your next best chance to get in early for the next cycle.
So if you’ve been waiting for “the right time,” 2025 is it.
