- Liquidity is crucial. Fresh capital inflow is essential for Bitcoin to recover and resume its bull run.
- 75K Support is key. Analyst’s bullish outlook hinges on Bitcoin staying above the $75,000 price level.
- Volatility to be expected. Past drops show Bitcoin can rebound, but sideways trading or further dips are likely.
With Bitcoin struggling to hold ground at $80,000, currently in the red trading at $79,222, investors are anxious to see if the cryptocurrency can stop its latest slide and begin to recover.
And according to CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju, the key to a turnaround lies in fresh capital flowing into the market. While recent spot trading volume has shown activity, Ju warns that without a significant influx of new money, Bitcoin could remain stuck in a sideways pattern, or worse, face further declines.
He draws parallels to previous periods of high trading volume, stressing that for a sustained price rise, would require new buyers entering the market. Without this, he suggests, a ‘distribution phase’ – where early investors take profits – could put downward pressure on the price even more.

Analyst: Bitcoin’s Bull Run “Not Over” Despite Risks
Despite concerns over potential consolidation, Ju remains bullish on Bitcoin’s long-term outlook, emphasizing that the bull cycle is not over. He reiterated, “I’m bullish. The bull cycle is not over.”
However, he acknowledged the possibility of a 30% drop at some point, saying that if Bitcoin fell significantly below $75K, it would contradict his bullish stance. He wrote, “I didn’t change my stance—I’ve been consistent about the bull cycle and the possibility of a 30% correction.”
Bitcoin’s Past Volatility and 2021 Parallels
Bitcoin did fall by 30% , sparking widespread panic among retail investors. Ju reassured traders, explaining that in 2021, BTC lost 53% of its value before skyrocketing to an all-time high. This historical trend highlights the inherent volatility of the crypto market while supporting Bitcoin’s long-term upward path. The analyst also pointed out that long-term, strategic investors typically outperform reactive traders.

Bitcoin’s Two Possible Market Scenarios
That said, the current market structure suggests two possible scenarios —either Bitcoin continues lurking within this range, awaiting a liquidity-driven breakout, or a lack of fresh capital triggers a more extended bearish period.
With Bitcoin close to a psychologically significant level, all eyes are now on whether new liquidity can drive prices higher or if the market will stay stuck in a holding pattern for the near future.
