Bitcoin has fallen about $10,000 recently, dropping from around $83,000 to near $73,000 after hitting resistance at its 200-day moving average. Analyst Benjamin Cowen notes this pattern matches previous midterm-year weaknesses seen in 2018 and 2022, with Bitcoin often bottoming in the first half of these years. June is highlighted as a critical month for a potential low, possibly influenced by the Bank of Japan's rate decisions. Traders are cautioned that even if Bitcoin rallies in July, a final drop could still occur in September or October, so panic selling should be avoided.
