Bitcoin Cycle Top ‘Still Seems Far Off,’ According to CryptoQuant CEO – Here’s His Outlook
The chief executive of market intelligence platform CryptoQuant says that Bitcoin ( BTC ) still has a ways to go before reaching its cycle top.
In a new thread on the social media platform X, CryptoQuant CEO Ki Young Ju says that those predicting an upcoming bear market for the crypto king are likely ignoring on-chain data that shows BTC has been in a bull market for the last two years.
According to Ju, crypto whales accumulating large amounts of the top crypto asset by market cap has gone from being a newsworthy event to a routine one, proving the bull market isn’t over.
“The narrative of whale accumulation on Bitcoin has become so common that it’s now daily chatter. Just 2-3 years ago, news of whales accumulating would send shockwaves through the market. Today, it’s no longer breaking news – it’s just expected, routine information…
Right now, we’re clearly in a bull market, with on-chain data showing $7 billion in weekly capital entering the market…
News of whale accumulation no longer moves people – maybe because analysts, including me, have been calling it a bull market for the last two years. But the bull market isn’t over. If Bitcoin enters a bubble, all the analysts would be screaming about the cyclical top.”
Ju goes on to say that BTC is not in a “bubble,” which he defines as when an asset’s market price significantly exceeds the capital flowing into it, noting that its cycle peak is not close.
“For now, it’s obviously not a bubble. Sure, corrections can happen, but amid a bull cycle, it’s very unlikely we’ll see more than a 30% drop. Even if such a drop happens, it would likely be short-lived, with prices potentially going up more than 30% after the correction.
The peak of this Bitcoin cycle still seems far off. For those predicting the start of a bear market, I’d like to hear their reasoning.”

Following Samsung, will TSMC raise prices by 10-15% across all process nodes?
The surge in AI demand has led to a severe shortage of advanced production capacity at TSMC, with N2 and N3 nodes almost fully booked by Apple and NVIDIA. Following Samsung's move in July to raise 4nm and 5nm process prices by 10–15%, TSMC plans to follow suit, with N3 already increasing by 15%. Prices for N2 and N5 will rise another 5–10% by early 2027 at the latest, and mature nodes such as N12, N16, and N28 will also see hikes of up to 10%. Strong pricing power has prompted Wall Street to significantly raise its earnings forecasts and target prices for the company.

This incident reveals that the norms of transatlantic financial cooperation are on the brink of collapse. The United States' unconventional unilateral financial actions have triggered deep anxiety in Europe: the political intervention by the Trump administration is disregarding the interests of its allies and could even weaponize the very foundation of global financial stability. Despite the Federal Reserve’s efforts to reassure, it can no longer guarantee against the unpredictability of the U.S. executive branch, severely damaging mutual trust between Europe and America.
