Bitcoin Breaks Its 4-Year Cycle for the First Time in 14 Years

Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency, ended its Q4 2025 with a nearly 28% drop

On the downside, $74,500 is a critical monthly support. If this level breaks, some analysts believe Bitcoin could form a deeper bottom near $40,000 sometime in 2026.

As of now, Bitcoin is trading around $88,040, reflecting a slight rise seen in the last 24 hours, with a market cap hitting $1.75 trillion.
