🚨 BITCOIN CYCLE WATCH – 2026 ON THE HORIZON❗
According to Samuel Benner’s 1875 financial cycle chart, 2026 is marked as a “B” year — signaling Good Times, High Prices, and a prime SELL zone.
🔹 Current BTC rally fits the cycle outlook
🔹 “A” years = crashes, “C” years = accumulation (2023–2024 was the buying window)
🔹 “B” year ahead = peak euphoria & top valuations in 2026
🔹 Blending technicals + time cycles gives traders the edge
How the Benner Cycle works:
Line A (Panic Years): Market crashes
Line B (Boom Years): Peak prices, best time to sell
Line C (Recession Years): Cheap accumulation phases
📖 Background:
Samuel Benner, after losing his fortune in the 1873 panic, built a cycle chart projecting booms and busts up to 2059. Though originally based on commodities, some crypto analysts adapt it for Bitcoin — especially since the 2025–2026 peak lines up with BTC’s post-halving bull cycle.
⚡ Why it matters for crypto:
Long-term roadmap for entry/exit timing
Echoes emotional market patterns (fear, greed, euphoria)
Fits with Bitcoin’s halving-driven bull runs
⚠️ Criticisms:
Based on outdated 19th-century commodity data
Has had misses (e.g., 2019 panic call was off)
Oversimplifies modern, complex markets
Can feed confirmation bias if used blindly
Experts warn: it’s not a guaranteed forecast, just one perspective
👉 Smart money doesn’t chase pumps — they plan around cycles.
