Bitcoin has definitely matured lately compared to its previous massive crashes of 20-30% in a day. However, it still endures some vivid fluctuations, which seem more violent now, given the higher price. Percentage-wise, though, even yesterday\u2019s big crash pales in comparison to countless others in the past.<\/p>\n<p>Some analysts <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-btc-crash-is-breezy-compared-to-2022-carnage-claims-dragonflys-qureshi\/\">called<\/a> the Friday crash a breeze, while others <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-faces-more-downside-as-model-points-to-74k-bear-market-floor\/\">believe<\/a> the real bottom is not in, and the asset could drop to as low as $74,000. Merlijn The Trader also noted that there could be another leg down in BTC\u2019s cards, due to the existence of a CME gap at around $92,000. Such gaps are often filled, even weeks or months later, and Merlijn suggested that the final shakeout might be around the corner.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">BITCOIN LOVES TO FILL THE GAPS.<\/p>\n<p>$97K: DONE.<br \/>$92K: NEXT?<\/p>\n<p>Final shakeouts are brutal.<br \/>But once they\u2019re done\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Bitcoin takes off when everyone least expects it. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wAoRkGFRn2\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/t.co\/wAoRkGFRn2<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/9q7dYV3Z6C\" target=\"_blank\">pic.twitter.com\/9q7dYV3Z6C<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Merlijn The Trader (@MerlijnTrader) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MerlijnTrader\/status\/1989619396529225756?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\">November 15, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"the-bull-case\">The Bull Case<\/h2>\n<p>After predicting another retracement to $92,000, the analyst outlined that it could be the exact push the cryptocurrency needs to stage another rally to fresh peaks.
