BIT Research: Five Signals Flash Simultaneously, Has the Bitcoin Bear Market Ended?

marsbitPublié le 2026-04-17Dernière mise à jour le 2026-04-17

Résumé

According to a BIT research report, multiple independent technical indicators are signaling that the Bitcoin bear market, which began in October 2025, may be nearing its end or has already concluded. Unlike the prolonged 2022 bear market, the current cycle shows structural changes due to the introduction of spot Bitcoin ETFs and reduced regulatory uncertainty, limiting excessive downside volatility. Key technical signals include: the weekly stochastic oscillator rising above 20 (historically a bottoming signal), price approaching the critical 21-week moving average (~$77,592), and the monthly RSI potentially moving above its average. Additionally, Bitcoin is testing the key resistance zone of $66,000–$73,000. A decisive break above $73,084 (the March 2024 high) would confirm a trend reversal. The convergence of these five signals—rather than any single indicator—increases confidence that the market is transitioning from a downtrend to a bottoming phase. The focus now shifts to whether price can sustain a breakout, potentially targeting $88,000 or higher, with $64,972 acting as crucial support. The report emphasizes that while trends are improving, investors should remain cautious and consult professionals, as digital asset trading carries significant risk.

The market is currently at a critical turning point. Multiple independent technical indicators are gradually pointing to the same conclusion: the Bitcoin bear market that began in October 2025 may be nearing its end, or may have already concluded. Unlike the prolonged and repeatedly bottom-testing bear market of 2022, this cycle has seen significant changes in market structure. The launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs and the phased alleviation of regulatory uncertainty have created an environment lacking "excessive passive sell-offs" during the price decline. Furthermore, historical experience shows that Bitcoin rarely enters a one-way rally without undergoing consolidation; the current phase is more likely a "consolidation stage following bottom confirmation."

In this context, the reference value of a single indicator is limited. However, when multiple signals begin to appear simultaneously, the conclusion they point to is becoming clearer: the market is gradually transitioning from a downward trend to a phase of confirming a turning point.

Technical Signals Converge: From Bottoming Patterns to Trend Recovery

From a technical structure perspective, the most critical change in this market is the "signal resonance." Firstly, the weekly Stochastic oscillator has moved back above 20. This pattern typically appears after the worst phase of the market and has historically corresponded more often with bottom formation rather than a continuation of the decline. Simultaneously, a new trend signal has appeared again. Having triggered twice before without fulfillment, its reference value is now significantly enhanced.

Secondly, the Bitcoin price is gradually approaching the 21-week moving average (approximately $77,592), a level long regarded as a key reference line distinguishing bull and bear cycles. The current price is oscillating around $75,000, and a reclaim of this level seems more a matter of time. A decisive break and hold above it would constitute a clear trend confirmation signal.

Additionally, the monthly RSI also shows potential to move back above its average. Historically, this signal has often appeared near bear market bottom areas. If it materializes again in this cycle, it would further strengthen the judgment that the market has completed its bottom building. Overall, while these indicators hold limited meaning when appearing alone, their concentrated emergence within the same time window suggests the market state has shifted from "continuation of the downtrend" to "gradual establishment of a bottom structure."

Key Price Range Confirmation: From Consolidation to Preparation for Upside

Beyond technical indicators, the price itself remains the core validation variable. The market is currently testing the key range of $66,000–$73,000. The high of approximately $73,084 reached in March 2024 has formed a medium-term top structure. If the price can effectively break out and stabilize above this range, it would mean the previous downtrend has been substantially reversed.

Structurally, the current price action shares some similarities with that of a year ago: the market experienced a rapid decline due to external shocks, followed by narrow-range consolidation, ultimately completing the trend shift through an upward breakout. The price has now begun testing the upper bound of the range. If this rhythm continues, a near-term probe towards $88,000 or even higher would not be considered aggressive. Meanwhile, the level of $64,972 below has become an important support level for the current phase. As long as the price holds above this level, the overall trend will gradually shift from neutral to bullish. Therefore, rather than judging whether the market has "already entered a bull market," the more critical question is: can the price complete the range breakout, thereby confirming the trend switch?

Currently, five signals are gradually pointing in the same direction: the weekly Stochastic strengthening, the trend signal reappearing, the price approaching the 21-week MA, the potential confirmation of the monthly RSI, and the effective break of the previous downtrend. A single signal is still insufficient for a definitive conclusion, but when these signals appear concentrated in the same phase, the credibility of the conclusion they point to increases significantly. Overall, the bear market that began in October 2025 may be nearing its end.

For the market, the focus is also shifting: the question is no longer whether Bitcoin will continue to recover, but rather, once the trend truly switches, how the speed and extent of the upside will unfold. In this process, the breakout of price ranges and changes in the liquidity environment will become the most critical variables to observe in the next phase.

À quelle distance sommes-nous de la fin du marché baissier des cryptos ?

Selon les données de Coinglass, l'indice de prime Bitcoin de Coinbase est resté négatif pendant 46 jours consécutifs, établissant un record. La vente de Bitcoin par MicroStrategy début juin a déclenché une forte baisse du marché, confirmant symboliquement le début d'un marché baissier. Le BTC a enregistré sa pire semaine depuis 2022, tombant en dessous de la moyenne mobile sur 200 semaines, un signal clé de marché baissier. Malgré des prédictions antérieures sur une fin proche du marché baissier, la chute continue du BTC et de l'ETH a contredit ces optimistes. Le désancrage de l'action privilégiée STRC de MicroStrategy et l'augmentation des pertes pour les détenteurs à long terme de BTC et d'ETH sont devenus des indicateurs clés de la persistance du marché baissier. Concernant la fin de ce cycle, certaines analyses suggèrent que les mois de juillet à août pourraient présenter une opportunité d'achat, tandis que d'autres prévoient un point bas entre octobre et décembre, avec un BTC entre 42 000 et 44 000 dollars. Des indicateurs techniques comme le prix moyen sur 4 ans du BTC et la carte thermique de la moyenne mobile sur 200 semaines suggèrent également une phase de consolidation. En l'absence de catalyseurs externes forts, ce marché baissier pourrait se prolonger encore 2 à 3 mois, avec une période charnière pour un éventuel rebond entre fin septembre et début octobre.

Combien de temps nous reste-t-il avant la fin du marché baissier des cryptos ?

L'indice de prime Bitcoin de Coinbase est resté négatif pendant 46 jours consécutifs, un record, signalant une pression de vente continue. Le marché baissier a été confirmé début juin après que MicroStrategy a vendu des Bitcoin, entraînant une chute des prix du BTC sous les 60 000 $ et une rupture du support clé de la moyenne mobile sur 200 semaines. Malgré des prédictions antérieures d'un potentiel fond autour de 53 600 $ ou d'une fin de marché baissier pendant la Coupe du Monde 2026, la baisse s'est poursuivie. Les indicateurs reflètent la pression du marché : l'action privilégiée STRC de MicroStrategy s'est fortement dépréciée, et une part record de détenteurs à long terme de BTC et d'ETH sont en perte. Les grands détenteurs d'ETH sont en perte pour la première fois depuis 2019. Concernant la fin du marché baissier, les avis divergent. Yi Lihua estime que juillet-août pourrait être la dernière opportunité d'achat. Jiang Zhuole prédit un creux entre 42 000 $ et 44 000 $ d'octobre à décembre. L'indice de prix sur 4 ans du BTC et la carte thermique de la moyenne mobile sur 200 semaines suggèrent également une phase de possible stabilisation. En résumé, en l'absence de catalyseurs externes majeurs, ce marché baissier pourrait se prolonger encore 2 à 3 mois, avec une période charnière pour un rebond potentiel du BTC vers fin septembre-début octobre.

Les actions semi-conducteurs s'effondrent, mais Anthropic veut fabriquer une puce 2 nm

Selon des informations, l'entreprise d'IA Anthropic aurait initié les premiers travaux pour développer sa propre puce dédiée à l'IA, envisageant de la fabriquer en partenariat avec Samsung en utilisant sa technologie de fabrication avancée de 2 nanomètres et son emballage de pointe. Ce projet, encore à un stade précoce de définition des spécifications, pourrait être abandonné. Cette initiative s'inscrit dans un contexte où la demande de calcul pour son modèle Claude dépasse l'offre disponible. En développant une puce d'inférence personnalisée, Anthropic cherche à optimiser les performances, réduire les coûts opérationnels et gagner en indépendance. Elle rejoint ainsi d'autres géants comme OpenAI, Google et Meta dans cette course à l'autonomie matérielle. Le choix de Samsung comme partenaire de fabrication n'est pas une surprise, ce dernier étant un investisseur stratégique dans le dernier tour de table d'Anthropic. Pour Samsung, c'est l'opportunité de renforcer son activité de fonderie face à TSMC en s'associant à un acteur majeur de l'IA. Cependant, cette quête d'indépendance crée paradoxalement de nouvelles interdépendances dans la chaîne d'approvisionnement mondiale des semi-conducteurs. Anthropic maintient une stratégie de diversification de ses sources de calcul, avec des engagements à long terme massifs auprès d'Amazon AWS (puces Trainium) et de Google (TPU), ainsi que la location d'un vaste cluster de GPU NVIDIA auprès de xAI. Malgré la tendance à la personnalisation des puces, NVIDIA conserve une position dominante sur le marché de l'inférence IA.
