Bitcoin Analyst Sees Late-2026 Market Bottom, Warns of Higher-Risk Assets

Crypto markets have been experiencing a prolonged bear cycle, with many investors and analysts trying to pinpoint the bottom.

Benjamin Cowen, a well-known crypto analyst, recently discussed his expectations for the current cycle in an interview.

According to Cowen, Bitcoin has historically bottomed roughly one year after its peak. Based on this framework, he identified October 2026 as a potential market bottom.

Cowen also noted that the current cycle differs from previous ones in terms of market behavior. Unlike prior cycles, which peaked amid strong retail enthusiasm, this cycle topped with relatively muted interest.
