Fidelity doesn't say "Bitcoin will skyrocket immediately." They mention something more dangerous: the market structure is maturing.
1️⃣ $60K – Possibly the bottom of the structure
Bitcoin just flushed down to 60K. Right at the support zone that Fidelity previously marked.
Compared to previous cycles: • 2014: -85% • 2018: -84% • 2022: -77% • 2026: much shallower correction
👉 The depth decreases over time. 👉 Each new bottom is higher than the previous one.
This is not a dead market. It’s a market that is growing.
2️⃣ Global liquidity is the new key
Bitcoin doesn’t move alone. It moves with Global Liquidity. • When money supply contracts → BTC adjusts • When money supply expands → BTC enters a new wave
Currently? Liquidity is stabilizing after a tightening phase.
If the monetary cycle reverses, Bitcoin usually leads.
3️⃣ “Road to maturity” – The path of growth
Each cycle: • Becomes less volatile • Takes longer to accumulate • More institutional participation
ETFs exist. Countries mine coins. Major institutions hold BTC.
Volatility gradually decreases as adoption increases.
The wild market is turning into a structured market.
4️⃣ Personal perspective
I don’t think this is the phase for excitement. But it’s also not the time for panic.
If 60K is truly the bottom: → We’ll face a few uncomfortable sideways months → Many will lose patience → Funding kills leveraged traders
And then…
The longer the consolidation, the stronger the breakout.
Bitcoin doesn’t go sideways forever. It accumulates energy and then explodes.
📌 The important thing isn’t to predict correctly. 📌 It’s to be on the right side of the probability.
Liquidity is stabilizing. The structure is maturing. The bottom is getting higher and higher.
If history repeats… 60K might not be the end point.
