Prominent crypto analyst Rekt Capital, known for accurately predicting 
Bitcoin's 2025 peak, has warned that Bitcoin could drop below $70,000 in the near term.
According to The Daily Hodl, Rekt Capital cites ongoing resistance at the $82,500 level as a key factor for the potential downturn. He noted that this resistance level has been showing signs of weakness, particularly after Bitcoin's weekly close.
Despite the bearish prediction, the broader market remains relatively stable. Bitcoin is currently trading at $80,558, down 0.14% in the past 24 hours and 1.29% over the last week. The total crypto market cap stands at $2.76 trillion, with a Fear & Greed index of 54, indicating neutral sentiment.
Rekt Capital's prediction comes as Bitcoin tests the $82,500 resistance level, which has proven to be a significant barrier. The analyst's previous accurate forecast of Bitcoin's 2025 peak adds credibility to his current outlook.
Market participants will be watching the $82,500 level closely. If Bitcoin fails to break through this resistance, it could validate Rekt Capital's prediction and lead to further downside.
