Dave the Wave: Bitcoin risks falling to $ 70,000

11:21 am, January 29, 2026

Cryptocurrency market analyst Dave the Wave has warned that Bitcoin could experience a deeper drop if it fails to stay above $ 88,000. He said this to his 154,700 followers on social network X after the price of BTC unexpectedly dropped below $ 90,000.

According to him, in the event of a breakout, the cryptocurrency could fall to $ 70,000, which would mean a correction of more than 22% of its current value. The analyst noted that despite the signs of an upward triangle formation, which theoretically implies growth, a further decline remains a more likely scenario.

Dave the Wave explained that on a logarithmic scale, such a drop would correspond to about a 25% correction in Bitcoin’s growth, which began in 2023. In this context, the movement to $ 70,000 does not look abnormal, although in nominal terms it may seem significant.

A similar position is held by market veteran Peter Brandt, who accurately predicted Bitcoin’s decline in 2018. He also warns about the likelihood of a significant correction in the near future.

At the time of publication, Bitcoin is trading at $ 89,890, up 1.6% from the previous day.
