$json.BodyEdited = “Bitcoin’s price is poised to undergo its characteristic boom and bust cycles, with a significant drawdown of 65% to 70% expected in the next downturn, according to Vineet Budki, CEO of Sigma Capital. Speaking at the Global Blockchain Congress 2025 in Dubai, Budki emphasized that this volatility stems from a widespread lack of understanding about Bitcoin’s true utility. \”Bitcoin will not lose its utility if it falls to $70,000,\” he explained, \”but because many investors don’t grasp its value, they tend to sell at the first sign of trouble, triggering heavy selling pressure.\” Despite anticipating a sharp near-term correction, Budki remains bullish on Bitcoin’s long-term prospects, forecasting the cryptocurrency could reach $1 million or more within the next decade driven by growing adoption not just as a speculative asset but through meaningful real-world use cases. While some industry voices, like BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes, argue that Bitcoin’s traditional four-year cycle is fading under the weight of macroeconomic forces and institutional involvement, others, including Xapo Bank CEO Seamus Rocca, maintain that the cycle still influences market behavior as investors treat Bitcoin primarily as a risk-on asset. This ongoing debate highlights Bitcoin’s complex market dynamics but signals that cyclical patterns continue to play a vital role in its price trajectory.
