Bitcoin has dropped 41% from its record high. Articles looking at past cycles are dissecting whether this is a buying opportunity or the start of a deeper slump.

## Idea

In every major Bitcoin cycle, drawdowns of 40% or more from the peak have eventually been followed by strong recoveries — often doubling off the bottom. The article highlights this historical pattern. While nobody can call the exact bottom, buying when fear is peaking and prices are deeply discounted has rewarded patient investors in prior cycles. Bitcoin ETFs like IBIT and exchanges like Coinbase also tend to rally hard when Bitcoin rebounds.
