Bitcoin on Its Way to $65,000 as the Bear Market Continues

The crypto market has been in a bear phase since January 2025, and Bitcoin likely peaked at $109,000 this cycle. Now, the big question on every trader’s mind is: How low can BTC go?

If the downtrend persists, here’s what I expect to unfold on Bitcoin’s price chart.

I see Bitcoin going as low as $60,000.

What about Altcoins?

We at 9jacashflow believe most altcoins will fall lower. Our initial prediction was wrong as only Toshi coin went ballistic(shot up in price) this year due to its Coinbase listing.

The reality is that:

• The inflation from token unlocks sends most altcoins down south.
• You need to limit your altcoin portfolio to a select few at best.
• Buying most alts isn’t worth it unless you’re an insider, in for the tech/build, a validator, or a node runner. What do you think?

Disclaimer: This is not financial advice. Always do your own research and, most importantly, manage your risk constantly and wisely.

Because as Niels Bohr once said:

“Prediction is very hard, especially if it’s about the future.”

Let’s break this down and talk about why risk management should always come before predictions.

The Truth About Market Predictions

Everyone loves a good prediction—whether it’s a $100,000 BTC target or a doomsday $10,000 crash scenario. But the reality is, even the best traders can’t accurately predict the future.

Yes, historical trends, technical analysis, and on-chain data can provide insights, but unexpected events (regulatory crackdowns, black swan events, or a sudden surge in demand) can completely change the market’s direction.

That’s where risk management comes in.

What Does It Mean to Manage Risk Constantly?

Managing risk isn’t just about setting stop losses—it’s about having a survival strategy in place. Here’s how to do it:

1. Position Sizing – Don’t bet your entire portfolio on a single trade. Stick to 1-2% risk per trade to avoid big losses.
2. Use Stop Losses & Take Profits – Always set exit points before entering a trade. Don’t rely on emotions!
3. Diversify Your Portfolio – Don’t go all-in on BTC or altcoins. Balance your holdings across different assets.
4. Adapt to Market Conditions – If the market shifts, adjust your strategy. What worked in a bull market may not work in a bear market.
5. Control Your Emotions – Fear and greed are your worst enemies. Stick to your plan.
6. Regularly Review & Adjust – What’s working? What’s not? Always refine your strategy.

The Lesson from Niels Bohr’s Quote

“Prediction is very hard, especially if it’s about the future.”

This quote is a simple but powerful reminder that no one knows what will happen next—not even the experts.

In the crypto space, we’ve seen wild predictions:

• In 2017, many thought BTC would never drop below $10K again—but it did.
• In 2021, some were calling for $200K BTC—it never happened.
• In 2022, some predicted BTC would go to $5K—but instead, it recovered.

Markets are unpredictable. That’s why the real skill isn’t predicting BTC’s next move—it’s managing risk so you can stay in the game long enough to profit when the opportunity comes.

Final Thoughts

If the bear market continues, BTC’s price will likely follow historical patterns, but no one knows for sure. Instead of obsessing over predictions, focus on what you can control: your risk, your mindset, and your strategy.

Stay smart, manage risk, and always think long-term.
