A crypto analyst is sounding the alarm about Bitcoin (BTC), warning investors to sell their coins before the next price crash. According to the market expert, Bitcoin could be preparing for another major correction, but this time, it’s in the $40,000 range. Contrary to the widespread belief that Bitcoin has entered a new bull market, this analyst argues that the bear market is far from over and that it will end only after BTC hits its final cycle bottom.
Orbion, a crypto market, has warned members of the Bitcoin community to consider exiting their positions immediately, predicting another major price crash ahead. He pointed to Bitcoin’s recent rally above $79,000, describing it as a bull trap that briefly attracted buyers before the price reversed back to previous lows as selling pressure increased.
According to Orbion, the move to $79,000 marked the final bull trap of its bear market cycle. He argued that there is no more meaningful demand left at the top, suggesting that the Bitcoin price will likely continue struggling to sustain any further upside momentum from current levels.

His accompanying chart clearly displays this bearish setup, showing Bitcoin’s weakening momentum despite its recent rebounds to higher levels. The chart shows that since the flagship cryptocurrency reached an all-time high above $125,000 in October 2025, its price has been in a prolonged downtrend. It has also traded within a narrow descending channel for months, constantly making lower highs and lower lows.
If price action plays out as Orbion says, Bitcoin could hit another lower high below $45,000, representing a more than 40% decline from current price levels above $75,000. The analyst believes a decline in this region is highly likely, marking it as BTC’s final cycle bottom.
Sharing similar bearish sentiments, market analyst KillaXBT has boldly claimed that Bitcoin has “absolutely zero chance” of surpassing or even reclaiming the $100,000 level this year. He noted that 42% of market participants still hold hopes that Bitcoin can close the year with a bullish green candle. Because of this large scale, the analyst believes the current market sentiment has not yet reached true capitulation.
As a result, the analyst expects the next 90 days to be highly volatile and difficult for traders, likely marked by sharp, unpredictable price swings. He further warned that Bitcoin is more likely to crash toward sub-$60,000 levels than stage a recovery back above $100,000 in the near term.
