Renowned bitcoin investor and author Michael Terpin, also known as the 'Crypto Godfather,' believes that bitcoin has not yet reached its lowest point and is unlikely to achieve a new all-time high this year. Terpin predicts that the price of bitcoin needs to plummet to approximately $57,000 by October before it can start to climb. This forecast contradicts the opinions of some market analysts, who think the cryptocurrency's February low of around $60,000 marked the end of the bear market and the beginning of a bull run. Terpin's pessimistic outlook for this cycle is based on his analysis of the crypto calendar and historical trends in bitcoin's price.

He argues that before a bull market can commence, the price must break above $100,000, which he believes is unlikely to happen soon. Other analysts, such as Jason Fernandes, agree that the bottom has not been reached but disagree with Terpin's timeline, suggesting that the market may not have fully capitulated yet.

The debate surrounding bitcoin's future price movements continues, with some experts predicting a further decline and others expecting a potential bull run.
