He highlighted how leverage was reset to zero back then, which was when the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-is-mirroring-2017-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">real bottom accumulation<\/a> started. The analyst suggested that BTC may again be on its way to finding a bottom, as the market has already flushed a lot of leverage.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, he noted that if the last cycle is any guide, the Bitcoin bottom doesn\u2019t form until the speculative excess is almost entirely gone. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coinglass.com\/currencies\/BTC\/futures\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">CoinGlass data<\/a> shows that leverage in the BTC market remains well above levels recorded at the <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/when-to-start-buying-bitcoin-again\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">last cycle\u2019s bottom<\/a>. Bitcoin\u2019s open interest is currently at $43.86 billion, while the derivatives trading volume is at $87.68 billion.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-667866\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Bitcoin-chart-from-Ardi.png?w=512&amp;resize=512%2C188\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"512\" height=\"188\"><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Ardi also commented on <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/war-with-iran-may-spark-federal-reserve-intervention-arthur-hayes-says\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">the ongoing war<\/a> between the U.S. and Iran and how it affects Bitcoin. When asked whether his analysis factored in the war for when a bottom could occur, the analyst stated that BTC\u2019s price has already factored in most of that. He added that the worst phase for price is likely over from a war perspective.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin has so far maintained a tight range amid the war between the U.S. and Iran. The leading crypto had climbed to $70,000 earlier in the week but faced significant selling pressure at that psychological price level.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Could Rally To $80,000 This Month<\/h2>\n<p>Crypto analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/CryptoMichNL\/status\/2028748965282472320?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Micha\u00ebl van de Poppe predicted<\/a> that Bitcoin could rally to between $75,000 and $80,000 this month. The analyst also touched on the current price action, highlighting how it has held above $65,000 and even rallied towards the $70,000 level. He added that BTC is likely to see some <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-60000-fortress-vs-70000-ceiling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">days of consolidation<\/a> before a breakout to the upside likely occurs. This breakout also looks likely, considering that Bitcoin has been establishing this range for a while now.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A positive for Bitcoin is that the selling pressure may be easing. Glassnode analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/ChrisBeamish_\/status\/2028791763654086900?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Chris Beamish stated<\/a> that the long-term holders (LTH) net position change is now easing after months of sustained net selling. This suggests that <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/bitcoin-sees-most-aggressive-institutional-selling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener \">selling pressure<\/a> from seasoned holders is moderating as BTC stabilizes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing, the BTC price is trading at around $67,800, down in the last 24 hours, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/bitcoin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">data<\/a> from CoinMarketCap.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/gGL1oKOL\/\" alt=\"Bitcoin\" width=\"2108\" height=\"1636\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crypto analyst Ardi has alluded to Bitcoin\u2019s last cycle to provide insights into when the leading crypto could end its downtrend this time around.
