Bitcoin's True Capitulation Zone is $65K, Says Well-Followed Analyst

Quick Summary:

James Check points to $65K as the average investor’s cost basis, while $1T market cap ($50k) may serve as a psychological floor.

Check also took note of the extended period of "chopsolidation" in 2024 — where bitcoin traded for months in a wide range between $50K and $70K — as establishing a strong foundation of support.

A drop to as low as $40,000 seems unlikely, he said, barring a global recession.
