However, she has reiterated her view that Bitcoin will serve as a store of value and global settlement system.<\/p>\n<p>She previously asserted that growing institutional adoption will be a powerful driver for long-term value for the flagship crypto, adding that it has only begun. \u201cInstitutions really have just dipped their toes into this space. We have just started, so we have a long way to go,\u201d she stated.<\/p>\n<h2>Analysts Say BTC Bottom Is Much Lower<\/h2>\n<p>Despite Wood\u2019s outlook, other market analysts have forecasted much lower targets for BTC\u2019s bottom. Recently, Bloomberg senior strategist Mike McGlone suggested that a \u201cbursting crypto bubble\u201d scenario is looming for the leading cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n<p>As <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/bitcoin-news\/new-bitcoin-crash-ahead-bloomberg-strategist-forecasts-return-to-10000-heres-why\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">reported<\/a> by NewsBTC, McGlone affirmed that Bitcoin could drop as low as $10,000 this year, noting that this level was a common trading price before 2020-2021 and \u201cthe first-born crypto\u2019s most traded price since 2017.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Market watcher Crypto Jelle recently pointed out that the cryptocurrency\u2019s bear market lows have historically formed below the Fibonacci 0.618 retracement levels, which could place BTC\u2019s bottom below the $57,000 area.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, analyst Ali Martinez <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/bitcoin\/bitcoin-absolute-bottom-final-shakeout-is-near\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">said<\/a> that BTC\u2019s final correction before the next bull run could send the price 40%-50% down toward the $30,000-$40,000 area, based on its historical performance.<\/p>\n<p>The analyst explained that the crossover between BTC\u2019s 50 and 200 Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) has historically signaled the bottom of every major cycle over the past twelve years.<\/p>\n<p>As he detailed, the crossover has consistently marked the start of the final leg down before the next bull market, with the price declining another 50% when the 50- and 200-SMAs crossed in previous cycles.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Bitcoin has seen a 52% correction from its October 2025 peak, and the SMAs crossed over on February 27, which could suggest that another major correction is due, if history repeats.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" class=\"size-large wp-image-890494\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/BTCUSDT_2026-04-03_13-00-43.png?w=860&amp;resize=860%2C527\" alt=\"Bitcoin, btc, btcusdt\" width=\"860\" height=\"527\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Bitcoin (BTC) holds the crucial $65,000 to $66,000 area, Ark Invest CEO and CIO Cathie Wood has discussed the flagship crypto\u2019s current downturn, affirming that the era of severe pullbacks is over. 50% Bitcoin Correction Could Be A \u2018Real Victory\u2019 In a recent interview on CNBC\u2019s Squawk Box, Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood affirmed [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":40011,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[45],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-40010","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-bitcoin"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
