Cowen contended that bear markets are often mischaracterized; they typically spend more time in upward trends than downward ones. He pointed out that this misconception can confuse both bullish and bearish investors, emphasizing that downturns tend to be brief and intense.
The analyst suggested that if Bitcoin were to decline to a range between $30,000 and $50,000, it could represent a solid bottom based on historical data. He highlighted that 2026 will be a “midterm election year” in the United States, which historically poses challenges for cryptocurrencies. According to Cowen, this period may necessitate what he describes as “time-based capitulation” within the market.
Cowen compared investing in altcoins to gambling at a casino and advised investors to concentrate their efforts on Bitcoin instead since altcoins might continue depreciating relative to Bitcoin’s value.
