Bitcoin temporarily climbed above $72,500, causing some analysts to predict further gains ahead. However, others remain cautious, alerting that the conditions remain bearish and a new crash could be on the horizon.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"not-out-of-the-woods-yet\">Not Out of the Woods Yet<\/h2>\n<p>X user Ted has been quite pessimistic about BTC lately, <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TedPillows\/status\/2041650906077319375\" target=\"_blank\">noting<\/a> that some users have challenged his predictions after the price pump following the US\/Iran ceasefire. Nonetheless, he sticks to his forecast that the bear market is not over and that the asset and the entire crypto sector have yet to dump to new bottoms.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThe ceasefire deal will pump the markets, but it will dump in the next weeks to new lows. Bookmark it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Ted is not the only one pointing to this potential scenario. The analyst who goes by the moniker Ameba <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Ameba_NM\/status\/2041802265783042439\" target=\"_blank\">thinks<\/a> a decisive jump beyond $72K may be followed by a further resurgence to as high as $83,600. On the other hand, plunging below $71K \u201cwould look like another deviation with 65K as a magnet and possibly lower.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another X user who commented on the topic was Aralez. They <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/0xAralez\/status\/2041842088166232372\" target=\"_blank\">envisioned<\/a> two scenarios, with the first being a push to $73,000 and then new local highs. The second possible outcome, though, is much more bearish and involves an eventual dip to $64,000. The analyst outlined April 10 as an important date for BTC\u2019s future price performance due to the release of the US CPI data on that day.<\/p>\n<p>For their part, Lofty <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/0xLofty\/status\/2041605425250910305\" target=\"_blank\">claimed<\/a> that the leading cryptocurrency is nowhere near its bottom. They even envisioned a high-volume sell-off this month that could suppress the valuation to $30,000.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this week, the popular market observer Ali Martinez also <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-btc-accumulation-zones-where-are-the-next-big-opportunities\/\">assumed<\/a> that BTC might be on the verge of a renewed downtrend. However, he thinks that such a scenario could become a generational buying opportunity.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"you-may-also-like\" class=\"heading-4\">You may also like:<\/h3>\n<h2 id=\"additional-warnings\">Additional Warnings<\/h2>\n<p>BTC experienced another pump late last week<span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">, reaching as high as $70,000, but several industry participants\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/dont-trust-bitcoins-btc-pump-analysts-warn-the-price-may-plunge-soon\/\">described<\/a> it as a classic<\/span>\u00a0bull trap. Among them was Crypto Analyst who said:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cBull trap BTC. Don\u2019t trust Sunday pump. Big dump incoming.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The asset\u2019s Relative Strength Index (RSI) also suggests a pullback may follow. The ratio briefly exceeded the bearish 70 zone, indicating the price has risen too much in a short period, which is typically seen as a precursor to a move south. On the contrary, falling below 30 is interpreted as a buying opportunity.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1433969\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1433969\" style=\"width: 2224px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/BTC-RSI.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1433969\" src=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=9999\" alt=\"BTC RSI\" width=\"2224\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=1368 1368w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=300,h=54 300w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=1024,h=184 1024w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=768,h=138 768w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=90,h=16 90w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=150,h=27 150w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=1200,h=216 1200w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=1000,h=180 1000w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=900,h=162 900w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=800,h=144 800w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=700,h=126 700w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=600,h=108 600w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=500,h=90 500w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=400,h=72 400w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=200,h=36 200w, https:\/\/imagedelivery.net\/m229SatnEWUWJyPg8tcYvg\/36c329cb-4c9b-45bc-483f-5c75ada86200\/w=100,h=18 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2224px) 100vw, 2224px\"\/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1433969\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTC RSI, Source: CryptoWaves<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-12\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div><center><span style=\"font-size:11px; color: gray;\">SPECIAL OFFER (Exclusive)<\/span><\/center><br \/>\n<b>Binance Free $600 (CryptoPotato Exclusive): <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/binance600f\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Use this link<\/a> to register a new account and receive $600 exclusive welcome offer on Binance<\/b> (<a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/binance600d\/\">full details<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><b>LIMITED OFFER for CryptoPotato readers at Bybit: <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/pl\/bybit24\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">Use this link<\/a> to register and open a $500 FREE position on any coin!<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 --><\/p><\/div>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/dont-be-fooled-by-us-iran-ceasefire-pump-is-bitcoin-heading-to-new-lows\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; Here\u2019s why the worst for BTC may not be over yet.
