Supercycle narrative, once treated like gospel, took a serious hit as BTC USD slid all the way to $60,000 and ETH USD cracked below $2,000. Is this just another brutal shakeout or the moment the supercycle myth finally broke? Either way, BTC USD and ETH USD are now inseparable from rock bottom sentiment.<\/p>\n
What made us feel the selloff sting is that we just don\u2019t know where the fire comes from. No surprise rate hike, no exchange collapse, no overnight regulation hammer. The total crypto market cap just somehow dropped to $2.3 trillion after a sharp 7% daily decline, almost half of $4,2 trillion top.<\/p>\n
More than $2.6 billion vanished in a single day, with realized Bitcoin losses hitting past black swan events. Long positions worth over $2.1 billion were erased; it was just a brutal bloodbath. Nobel laureate Paul Krugman called it a \u201ccrisis of faith\u201d as both ETH and BTC don\u2019t respect narratives. The supercycle debate becomes emotional before it becomes analytical in a cycle low condition.<\/p>\n
If this is a supercycle, it\u2019s not the smooth, up-only version people sold on podcasts. If.<\/p>\n

Strategy CEO Phong Le said that BTC USD would need to collapse to $8K and stay there for years to truly threaten corporate balance sheets. At the same time, $4.3 billion in Bitcoin flowed out on Binance in just two days, more than any other exchange, even as on-chain data showed long-term holders barely moving.<\/p>\n
The market has shed nearly $1 trillion since mid-January, with analysts now openly floating USD 40K scenarios for BTC, just as bears hold the momentum. ETH USD, meanwhile, continues to wrestle with its own identity crisis as Layer-2 drama and ecosystem politics muddy the waters. The supercycle is limping if it exists.<\/p>\n
Although beneath the noise, adoption headlines didn\u2019t stop. Russia\u2019s Sberbank is preparing crypto-backed loans for corporates. Binance\u2019s CZ keeps pushing the idea that every national currency belongs on-chain. Coinbase\u2019s Brian Armstrong compared crypto and AI to \u201csiamese twins\u201d of applied math, destined to reconnect. Builders building while prices bleed.<\/p>\n

Daily RSI dipped near 22, a range lower than that of \u201cCovid Crash\u201d. A good rebound could target the $75K zone if volume helps the course, but failure here opens the door to $40K based on Fibonacci retracements from October highs. The 200-day moving average is saying that $55K is the line to watch.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n ETH USD looks equally tense as it\u2019s slipping under $2K, completing a descending triangle, with $2.2K now acting as stubborn resistance. MACD remains bearish, but stochastic indicators are starting to diverge, hinting at a relief bounce. A push toward $2.5K isn\u2019t impossible, yet a clean break below $1.8K would likely drag ETH toward $1.5K. So it comes down to whether the supercycle is really going to go again.<\/p>\n Total crypto market cap excluding BTC and ETH USD is down by 16% this week, while DeFi TVL slid to $93 billion, losing 7%. Sentiment gauges are deep in extreme fear. However, it is somewhat bullish as it shows that most retail has already left the room.<\/p>\n As this week closes, remind ourselves that every cycle feels like the end when you\u2019re holding. Whether the supercycle survives, BTC USD and ETH USD have reached levels where patience pays in many instances. The fire looks scary up close, but step back and look how beautiful it is from afar.<\/p>\n For me, I\u2019ll be singing \u201cHave a Cigar\u201d for Bitcoin<\/p>\n Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar, you\u2019re gonna go far. You\u2019re gonna fly, you\u2019re never gonna die. And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?
