Will Bitcoin Price Recover, or Will It Fall Further? Chinese Analysis Company Issues Warning for This Summer

As selling pressure deepens in the cryptocurrency market, 10X Research stated that hedging transactions in the options market are behind the decline in Bitcoin.

According to the company’s assessment, transactions carried out by institutional investors, particularly those aimed at protecting their portfolios, created downward pressure on the price.

According to the research firm, Bitcoin may see a limited recovery or sideways movement in the short term. However, this movement may not indicate a permanent trend reversal. Markus Thielen, Head of Research at 10X Research, predicts that Bitcoin could bottom out again during the summer months, potentially falling to $50,000 or even the $40,000-$50,000 range. Thielen stated that a “counter-trend rally” is possible in the short term, but a new low is likely to be tested during the summer.

The sell-off in Bitcoin is mirroring the decline in US technology stocks. Bitcoin, which has a high correlation with risky assets, is losing value, particularly in light of weakness in Nasdaq and technology-focused stocks. On the other hand, sharp fluctuations in traditional assets like gold and silver are also increasing uncertainty in global markets, putting pressure on the crypto market.

Forced liquidations are also among the significant factors accelerating the decline. According to Coinglass data, over $2 billion in long and short positions were liquidated in the crypto market on Thursday. On Friday, this figure was around $800 million. The unwinding of leveraged trades further increased selling pressure.

Weakening is also noticeable on the institutional side. According to CryptoQuant data, US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs, which made net purchases of approximately 46,000 BTC in the same period last year, have become net sellers in 2026. Thielen stated, “Institutional investors are really starting to unwind their crypto positions.”

Bitcoin is currently trading more than 40% below its all-time high. Losses are even deeper in other major crypto assets. Ethereum and XRP have lost more than 60% of their record highs, while Solana’s decline has exceeded 70%.

Market analysts note that Bitcoin’s drop below $70,000 raises additional downside risks from a technical perspective. 10X Research warns that after a possible short-term recovery, even lower levels could be seen during the summer months.

Here’s What $100 in Dogecoin (DOGE) Will Be Worth by the End of 2025 Compared to Solana (SOL) and Little Pepe (LILPEPE)

The post Here’s What $100 in Dogecoin (DOGE) Will Be Worth by the End of 2025 Compared to Solana (SOL) and Little Pepe (LILPEPE) appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SPONSORED POST* If you invested $100 today, projections suggest that by the end of 2025, Dogecoin (DOGE) could grow to $700, Solana (SOL) to $500, but Little Pepe (LILPEPE) is showing an entirely different trajectory, potentially reaching $10,000. Little Pepe (LILPEPE) recently sold out its 12th stage of presale and entered stage 13, now priced at $0.0022.  Investors at this stage are already looking at a guaranteed 30% ROI at launch, but projections based on current momentum and buyer activity suggest potential returns well beyond that, possibly 10x or more if demand continues. The project has raised over $26 million and sold 16 billion tokens faster than expected, highlighting both the speed of adoption and the potential for outsized gains compared to other major coins. Comparing $100 Investments: Dogecoin, Solana, and Little Pepe’s Potential Returns Dogecoin (DOGE) is trading at approximately $0.2845, reflecting a 7.3% increase from the previous close. Despite recent gains, DOGE remains down over 60% from its 2021 high of $0.73. Analysts predict that as DOGE rises by the end of 2025, a $100 investment could grow to $700. Solana (SOL) is currently priced at $250.72, up 7.3% from the previous close. With a total value locked (TVL) of $12 billion and speculation around ETF approval and a potential Nasdaq listing, SOL is projected to turn the same $100 investment into $500 by year-end. In contrast, Little Pepe (LILPEPE), still in its presale phase, has raised over $25.47 million and sold over 15.75 billion tokens, surpassing expectations. Priced at $0.0022 in Stage 13, LILPEPE offers a guaranteed 30% ROI from its listing price of $0.003. Given its rapid growth and strong community engagement, analysts predict a potential 100x return by 2027, making a $100 investment worth $10,000. While DOGE and SOL offer established investment opportunities with moderate…
