However, the asset couldn\u2019t even go beyond $74,000 before it slipped to $71,500 over the past 12 hours.<\/p>\n<p>In a separate post, he noted that BTC\u2019s \u2018electrical cost\u2019 has dropped further to $47,000, and noted that the cryptocurrency has formed a lower floor.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Bitcoin \u201cElectrical Cost\u201d has almost dropped to $47,000.<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/search?q=%24BTC&amp;src=ctag&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">$BTC<\/a> bottom floor is going lower. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6uTlNy388J\">pic.twitter.com\/6uTlNy388J<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ted (@TedPillows) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TedPillows\/status\/2042682275104473098?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 10, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Pillows is highly bearish on BTC\u2019s price performance and outlined another chart that \u201cisn\u2019t looking good\u201d for the asset. He <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TedPillows\/status\/2042917575500402899\">compared<\/a> bitcoin\u2019s moves to software stocks, noting that the two asset classes tend to move along, which could spell trouble for the cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Crypto Rover outlined a bullish crossover for BTC on the weekly timeframe MACD. However, the analyst <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/cryptorover\/status\/2042886622866268248\">claimed<\/a> this \u201cdoes NOT mean the bear market bottom is in,\u201d as when it happened twice during the 2022 crash, BTC plunged by 60% and 40%, respectively.<\/p>\n<h2>The Dark Horse (Again)<\/h2>\n<p>As with our bullish article, we also need to talk about the big elephant in the room: the war in the Middle East. No matter what on-chain data is showing at the moment, BTC has been predominantly impacted by the developments in the US\/Israel vs Iran front, and the past 12 hours only proved that narrative.<\/p>\n<p>BTC had climbed from $68,000 to almost $74,000 from Tuesday to Saturday evening after the two-week ceasefire announced by the US and Iran. However, the failure of the peace talks in Pakistan <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/peace-talks-fail-why-bitcoin-just-tanked-and-what-happens-next\/\">led to an immediate crash<\/a> of over $2,000 in minutes. As such, it\u2019s expected that bitcoin will continue to follow the developments in the Middle East and its price will be more influenced by Trump\u2019s comments rather than fundamentals, at least for now.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/the-2k-drop-today-was-just-the-beginning-why-this-analyst-says-bitcoin-isnt-done-crashing\/\">The $2K Drop Today Was Just the Beginning: Why This Analyst Says Bitcoin Isn\u2019t Done Crashing<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bitcoin\u2019s weekend price ascent came to a halt hours ago after the peace talks between the US and Iran fell apart, and the asset slipped by over two grand from top to bottom.
