Bitcoin Faces Potential 2026 Slide to $40,000, Warns Strategist Luke Gromen

Global macro strategist Luke Gromen warns Bitcoin could slide to $40,000 by 2026, citing a potential 65-70% drawdown risk based on historical technical breakdowns. He suggests currency debasement might drive investors towards assets like gold and select equities. Bitcoin has recently fallen from its all-time high, influenced by short-term profit-taking and global macro concerns, including weak signals from China and potential Bank of Japan rate hikes.
