График цены биткоина снова демонстрирует "смертельный крест", что вызывает опасения о наступлении поздней фазы цикла

Bitcoin
BTCUSD
is flashing a fresh “death cross” on its three-day chart, marking the bearish signal’s first appearance since June 2022.

Key takeaways:

BTC’s death cross raises the odds of a 35% average downside in March.

US Bitcoin ETFs have attracted over $458 million in daily inflows.

Past BTC death crosses preceded 35% drops

A death cross pattern appears when the short-term 50-period moving average crosses below the longer-term 200-period moving average, and it has at times presaged further near-term weakness.

In 2022, for example, Bitcoin’s 50–200 MA crossover on the three-day chart came before a steep slide of about 50%, with BTC eventually bottoming near $15,480.

In total, BTC has formed a death cross three times before 2026. The average returns over the following one, three, and 12 months were around –35%, –20%, +30%, respectively.

Bitcoin averaged a drawdown of roughly 80% from its peak in those three cycles. As of March 2026, BTC had already dropped by about 50% since its record high of around $126,270 five months ago.

It suggests BTC is now entering “the most brutal part of the bear market,” per analyst Mister Crypto.

That view echoes market commentators who see Bitcoin eventually carving a bottom in the $30,000–$45,000 range.

Bitcoin ETFs attract $458.20 million despite Middle East turmoil

US spot Bitcoin ETFs attracted $458.20 million in net inflows on Monday, according to Farside Investors data, signaling that dip-buying has returned after weeks of outflows.

The inflows came as Bitcoin volatility spiked following a sharp escalation in the Middle East.

After US and Israeli strikes on Feb. 28, Iran said it was closing the Strait of Hormuz and warned it would attack ships attempting to pass, raising fresh concerns about energy prices, supply chain stability, and shipping routes.

However, Arthur Hayes, the former BitMEX CEO, argued that this may eventually boost Bitcoin prices.

In a recent essay, Hayes said that prolonged US involvement could eventually push policymakers toward easier money.

He wrote that the longer US President Donald Trump engages in costly “Iranian nation-building,” the higher the chance the Fed “lowers the price and increases the quantity of money.”
