Wait for $27,000 USD or boldly catch the wave in 2026? Missing the mark could mean missing the entire Bitcoin cycle!

The market is always obsessed with one question: where is the bottom of $BTC and when will it truly appear?
Some believe that Bitcoin will form its bottom around mid to late October. Meanwhile, an “anonymous doctor” predicts that the real bottom will occur around June 2027, with a price around $27,000.
I personally do not rule out that scenario. But I also don’t think it’s necessary to wait for the “absolute bottom” to act.
Lessons from the 2014–2015 Cycle
During the 2014 bear market, Bitcoin formed a double bottom pattern.
End of 2014: the first bottom was formed.
July 2015: the second bottom appeared after a rebound and correction.
The scenario proposed by the “anonymous doctor” could be similar — meaning the market forms a first bottom, recovers, then revisits the second bottom before entering a new growth cycle.
That is not illogical in market terms. It has happened before.
The Issue Is Not in Prediction, but in Strategy
The important question is: how should we act based on these predictions?
Suppose:
Case 1: The 2027 prediction is wrong
If you wait until 2027 to invest, the market may have already formed the bottom and started a new uptrend. At that point, waiting for the “perfect bottom” could cause you to miss the best entry point of the cycle.
Case 2: The 2027 prediction is correct
Suppose Bitcoin drops to $40,000 in October 2026 and you start accumulating.
What if the market then falls even further to $27,000?
The gap between $40,000 and $27,000 is significant, but in a long-term growth cycle, both price ranges are considered “low zones” relative to the cycle’s peak afterward.
The main difference is that you must endure a period of high volatility and wait longer for the second bottom test.
Investment Mindset Is More Important Than Perfectly Catching the Bottom
The market doesn’t reward those who guess the bottom correctly; it rewards those with a sound capital management strategy.
Instead of:
Trying to precisely predict $27,000 or $40,000
Or waiting for a “prophetic” date,
You could:
Divide your capital into multiple parts
Gradually invest as the market reaches attractive valuation zones
Accept the possibility of “double bottoms”
And prepare psychologically for big swings.
Opportunities Always Favor Those Who Dare to Act with a Plan
If 2026 indeed presents an attractive price zone, starting to accumulate will give you an advantage.
If the market then dips even further, you still have capital to add.
But if you keep waiting for the “perfect bottom,” the new uptrend cycle might have already begun while you remain on the sidelines.
In investing, the biggest regret isn’t buying too early or too late — it’s not buying at all when the opportunity arises.
Finally, remember:
The bottom is only confirmed after it has passed.
A new strategy is what determines whether you will enter the next growth cycle or not.
