A widely followed cryptocurrency analyst and trader is expressing bearish sentiment on Bitcoin (BTC) following a market correction that coincided with Binance and its former CEO Changpeng Zhao pleading guilty to US federal charges.
The analyst pseudonymously known as Capo tells his 764,900 followers on the X social media platform that the “beginning of the end” is here.
According to Capo, a looming “massive capitulation event” will precede the end of the crypto bear market.
In reply to a follower who asks whether Bitcoin is heading to $12,000, the pseudonymous analyst says that the prospect is “still likely” and that a crash to a price last witnessed in October of 2020 would mark the bottom.
Bitcoin is trading at $37,369 at time of writing, up from its one-week low of $35,632.
Turning to altcoins, Capo says that they could correct more drastically than Bitcoin if BTC falls to his price target of $12,000. According to Capo, some altcoins are already showing signs of reaching a market top.
