Bitcoin Staying in Bear Market? Case for 60% Drop in 2026 & Drivers Behind Downtrend

Steven McClurg says the four-year cycle for Bitcoin is "still very much intact," pointing to energy as the main culprit to crypto's down action in the final quarter of 2025. He says energy prices caused crypto miners to sell Bitcoin sooner than expected. Heading into 2026, Steven expects crypto to move deeper into a bear market and makes the case for Bitcoin falling 60% below October's all-time high. He offers investing advice for navigating the expected downtrend in cryptocurrencies. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

He expects to see metals moving higher in 2026, arguing the underlying drivers are de-dollarization and aggressive deficit spending around the world which devalues fiat currencies.
