Why I Cashed Out Most of My Bitcoin Near the Top 💰📉 — And Why a Big Dip Won’t Surprise Me
I’ve been in Bitcoin since 2016 🕰️, and if there’s one lesson experience teaches you, it’s this:
Bitcoin moves in cycles — and those cycles repeat. 🔁
Earlier this year, when $BTC slipped from $120K to $110K, I cashed out most of my position. Not out of fear ❌ — but out of discipline 🎯. I’ve seen this movie before.
By the end of 2026, I believe Bitcoin could see another major reset, potentially dropping below $60,000 📉. This isn’t a bearish take — it’s a historical one 📊.
I made the same move in 2017 and 2021, and both times it worked out extremely well ✅.
Here’s the pattern 👇
Every four years, Bitcoin goes through a halving ⛏️. Supply gets cut ✂️, hype explodes 🔥, prices go parabolic 🚀 — and then comes the crash. Always.
History doesn’t lie:
2013: BTC ran to ~$1,200 🚀 → dropped to the $200s by 2014 📉
2017: BTC hit ~$20,000 🧨 → crashed to ~$3000 in 2018 ❄️
2021: BTC peaked at ~$69,000 🏔️ → fell to ~$15,000 by 2022 🩸
Now look at this cycle 👀
After the April 2024 halving, Bitcoin started running again 🏃♂️💨. If we topped near $120K in 2025, even a normal 50% correction puts BTC back in the $60,000–$70,000 zone by late 2026 📐.
And if history really rhymes? 🎶
A 60–70% correction wouldn’t be shocking — meaning a possible bottom around $40,000–$50,000 ⚠️.
That’s not bad news 🚫📰
That’s just how Bitcoin works ⚙️.
These pullbacks shake out weak hands 🤲, reset the market 🔄, and create the next buy-of-a-lifetime opportunity 💎.
So don’t be surprised if BTC is chilling near $60K or lower by the end of 2026 🧊. For long-term holders, this is just part of the game ♟️.
