Bitwise investment director Matt Hougan urged long-term investors not to dwell on finding the perfect entry point as major think tanks diverged in their Bitcoin bottom ratings. Hougan compared the forecasts of Galaxy Digital, NYDIG and Standard Chartered, which offer radically different scenarios for market development.

Galaxy Digital’s research of 13 historical bottom indicators confirmed only four. They allow a drop to $30,000-$54,000, considering the most likely support range of $40,000-$46,000. The NYDIG notes that metrics are close to past lows, but there has not yet been a final surrender, although institutional demand may mitigate the setback. Most optimistic in the Standard Chartered: they believe that the bottom has already reached $59,000, and by the end of the year the price will reach $100,000 amid macro improvements.

Despite the variation in numbers, Hoogan highlighted common points from all three reports: the minimum will be reached this year, the price is closer to the bottom than it is to peak, and the long-run bull trend remains. The spokesperson for Bitwise emphasized that, for long-term investors, the exact entry price is not decisive against macroeconomic factors such as rising public debt and inflation. In doing so, he recalled the main risks to the market - the quantum threat and tighter regulation.
