Bitcoin’s Descent: Ju & Brandt’s Dire Prediction 🚨

Despite the glistening promises of Bitcoin ETFs and DATs, the market’s heart remains cold, its pulse weak, as the common folk hesitate, their wallets heavy with doubt. 🌾

Old hands like Ki Young Ju, CryptoQuant’s grizzled sage, and Peter Brandt, the seasoned trader who’s seen more bear markets than a desert camel, have laid bare Bitcoin’s fate. Their words, a mix of hope and despair, echo through the digital plains. 🚨

Short-Term Outlook

In the short stretch of time, Bitcoin’s spirit wanes, its strength sapped by the fading reserves of stablecoins, like a river drying under the sun. 🌞

CryptoQuant’s data paints a bleak picture: stablecoin reserves on major exchanges dropped like a stone, with capital fleeing faster than a rattlesnake in a storm. 💸

Binance, the king of liquidity, now mirrors a barren field-no seeds (stablecoins) to sow. Retail investors, it seems, have packed their bags and left for greener pastures. 🚜

“This movement suggests a clear lack of investor interest in immediate market exposure. Rather than keeping their stablecoins on exchanges while waiting for opportunities, some investors have chosen to withdraw them,” analyst Darkfost commented.

So, Bitcoin’s short-term future? A slow burn, like a campfire in a hurricane. 🌪️

Medium-Term Outlook

Ki Young Ju, the oracle of CryptoQuant, warns that on-chain capital inflows are weakening, like a farmer watching his crops wither. 🌾

After 2.5 years of growth, the realized cap has stalled, a sign that even the most optimistic farmers are doubting the harvest. 🧾

The PnL Index Signal, once a beacon, now wavers like a drunkard’s flashlight. By year-end, it’s heading downward, a grim omen for the weary. 🕯️

“Sentiment recovery might take a few months,” Ki Young Ju predicted.

A few months? More like a lifetime in the Bitcoin desert. 🐫

Long-Term Outlook

Over the long haul, Peter Brandt, the old-timer who’s seen it all since 1975, remains bullish. His words? A siren song for the desperate. 🎶

Brandt claims Bitcoin has had five parabolic rises, each followed by a crash. “The cycle isn’t done,” he says, like a prophet preaching to a crowd of skeptics. 🧙‍♂️

I am in process of digging into this. I have already projected the next bull market high to occur in Sep 2029

When asked about the bottom, Brandt shrugs, a man who’s seen too many cycles to care. His thesis? History’s a cruel joke, where each cycle lasts longer but delivers less. 🤡

Analysts agree: Bitcoin’s road to recovery is long, its peak a mirage. The all-time high? A dream for the patient-or the foolish. 🧠
