Bitcoin's bull run may extend into 2026–2027, according to analyst @TheRealPlanC, who notes the current cycle is delayed by 12–18 months compared to historical patterns. Analyst @TechDev_52 highlights a rare momentum signal linked to economic cycles, suggesting a potential trendline reversal in October 2025. Similar signals in 2016 and 2020 led to significant gains. Macroeconomic factors have reportedly prolonged Bitcoin's accumulation phase, potentially extending the cycle to 5–5.5 years. Traders are also monitoring altcoins for opportunities amid this extended bullish outlook.
