Samson Mow Says Bitcoin Bottom Is In Despite Analyst Skepticism
Samson Mow argues Bitcoin's bottom is already in, citing an accelerated halving cycle with an all-time high 37 days before the event, despite ongoing analyst doubts.
Samson Mow, a prominent Bitcoin advocate and former Blockstream executive, declared that Bitcoin's bottom is already in, pushing back against analysts who expect further downside.
In a post on X on Sunday, Mow argued that the traditional four-year halving cycle has accelerated, noting that Bitcoin reached a new all-time high (ATH) 37 days before the most recent halving event. "I find it incredibly interesting how some people are so certain that the bottom is coming in four months because of 'cycles,'" Mow wrote. "But we had an ATH 37 days before the halving, so it would seem even if you believe in cycles, you should reason out that the cycles accelerated. The bottom is in." Mow is best known for his $1 million Bitcoin price prediction and his work promoting nation-state Bitcoin adoption, including with El Salvador's bitcoin initiatives.
For cryptocurrency traders, the debate over Bitcoin's bottom has significant implications for portfolio positioning. If Mow is correct, the current price levels may represent a buying opportunity before the next leg up. However, many analysts remain skeptical, citing historical patterns where Bitcoin often retests lows months after the halving. The halving cycle has historically been a key driver of Bitcoin's price, with supply cuts leading to bull runs, but the acceleration Mow describes could disrupt traditional timelines.

Looking ahead, market participants will watch for further confirmation signals, such as sustained price action above key resistance levels or shifts in on-chain metrics like exchange reserves and miner flows. The next few months will be critical in determining whether Mow's accelerated cycle thesis holds or if traditional patterns reassert themselves. Key data releases and macroeconomic events, including Federal Reserve policy decisions, could also influence Bitcoin's trajectory.
