Is Bitcoin Bottoming in October? Can the Anonymous Prophet's Accurate Prediction Strike Again?

BlockBeats News, since Bitcoin's peak in October 2025, it has been over 10 months, and the four-year cycle theory, believed by the crypto community, has recently sparked hot discussions: when will Bitcoin bottom out, and when is the best time to buy the dip. On this issue, BlockBeats has summarized the opinions of many well-known analysts as follows:

Famous trader and chart analyst Peter Brandt stated in late July that he expects Bitcoin to bottom out in this market cycle on October 4, 2026, and believes that investing in Bitcoin for the next two to three years may outperform investing in AI stocks. In addition, Brandt predicts that the next cycle's peak will occur in 2029, with a target price range of $250,000 to $300,000.

Jiang Zhuo'er, the founder of BTC.TOP mining pool, combined the predictions of the previous three Bitcoin halving cycles to predict the bottom of this bear market in the current cycle, expecting the bottom price of BTC to be $44,016, with an expected date of October 31.

Well-known traders Killa and CryptoD have provided relatively broad time ranges for their predictions. Killa believes the bottom may form in July to September. CryptoD, who once made a profit of over $10 million from a single coin, TRUMP, based on meme coins, believes that the overall crypto market is gradually approaching the bottom, stating, "Q3, Q4 is likely to be the last period before the next bull market to strategically position oneself."

It is worth noting that Peter Brandt and Jiang Zhuo'er's theory of an October bottom aligns closely with the widely circulated "Oracle" post from an anonymous user on the 4chan forum. Historical records show that this "Oracle" post was made on December 12, 2023, listing the time spans of Bitcoin's four cycles' price peaks and bottoms since 2015 (ATL 2015 → ATH 2017 ≈ 1064 days; ATH 2017 → ATL 2018 ≈ 364 days; ATL 2018 → ATH 2021 ≈ 1064 days; ATH 2021 → ATL 2022 ≈ 364 days), and based on this pattern, it was deduced that Bitcoin would peak on October 6, 2025. Following this logic, Bitcoin is also expected to bottom out this October.

However, the above analysis may be a case of "using yesterday's logic to fight tomorrow's battles." In this cycle, institutional capital inflows have redefined the Bitcoin landscape, so a shift in the usual cycle dynamics is not unexpected.
