Bitcoin Bounces Back: Is This the Ultimate Buy Signal?

Bitcoin (BTC) went for a bit of a tumble, you know, a 21.3% drop between February 21st and February 28th. It dipped all the way down to $78,300, a level we haven’t seen since November 2024 😂. Apparently, this correction caused over $1.6 billion in leveraged long (buy) liquidations. That’s a lot of folks getting a crash course in market volatility! The $21,210 decline was Bitcoin’s biggest seven-day drop ever. Talk about a wild ride! 🎢

But fear not, my friends! Several Bitcoin analysts are seeing this as a prime opportunity to, shall we say, “soak up those cheap coins.” They’re pointing to things like regulatory developments, sovereign fund exposure, onchain and technical signals, and even increasing integration with traditional finance.

Another big thing is classifying Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset, which would mean BTC deposits could be used as collateral, just like gold. Analysts are also saying that more sovereign wealth funds are getting into Bitcoin, and banks are starting to approve sales. It seems like everyone’s jumping on the bandwagon! 🚂

“apsk32,” an engineer and Bitcoin enthusiast, reckons that based on historical four-year cycles, BTC is on track to hit $230,000 to $290,000 by December 2025. He’s saying that traders should “soak up those cheap coins” because this opportunity won’t last forever. Meanwhile, onchain analysis shows that long-term holders weren’t really selling during the dip below $80,000. That means a swift recovery above $95,000 is looking
