With the current meltdown in various financial markets, including cryptocurrency, crypto analyst Miles Deutscher presented his own timeline that would cause the mother of all cryptocurrencies, $BTC, to hit a new all-time high rally between the third quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026.

He also shared his view on how altcoins will perform and tips on what to do in the current situation.

It should be noted that the financial market experienced a meltdown after U.S. President Donald Trump imposed at least a 10% tariff on every country, raising global recession fears that caused investors to sell all risk assets. $BTC is at its lowest value since November 2024, and $ETH since November 2023, along with stock markets across Asia, including Hong Kong (-8.7%), Singapore (-7%), Japan (-6%), China (-5.5%), and the Philippines (-4%).

“Yes, it’s painful now – but I think people are missing the bigger picture, and the eventual rally will be bigger than ever.”

The Timeline: What could Happen in the Next Months? 

I have high conviction that $BTC will make a new ATH sometime between Q3 this year and Q1 2026.

Yes, it’s painful now – but I think people are missing the bigger picture, and the eventual rally will be bigger than ever.

My rationale:

• Trump’s plan is to cause short-term pain…

According to Deutscher, Trump’s plan is to cause short-term pain as the U.S. chief to send the U.S. dollar or yields lower.

Because of tariffs set by Trump, he added, there will be forced domestic absorption of treasuries to offset the reduction in foreign buying. And because $BTC’s price action is “extremely sensitive” to global liquidity, this can also affect the asset.

“The market will likely bottom on recession fears (it’s a scary word and markets hate uncertainty), but by the time it officially comes around the market will already be looking at the FED’s response.”

Because of this “short-term pain,” Deutscher believes the Federal Reserve, the central bank of the U.S., will be forced to cut rates, preparing for quantitative easing in 2026. Quantitative easing is a monetary policy tool used by central banks to increase the money supply and lower interest rates.

In the crypto industry, it can be observed that every time the Federal Reserve cuts rates, the crypto market performs bullishly.

But How About the Altcoins? 

Meanwhile, altcoins—short for “alternative coins”—are cryptocurrencies excluding $BTC. Historically, during a bull market, $BTC rallies first, followed by altcoins, in what is also known as alt season.

According to Deutscher, the alt season will likely only occur once $BTC has peaked or is close to a peak. He added that only altcoins considered “top quality,” or those with real use cases, will follow $BTC’s bullish performance, while the “bad stuff” will die.

“Remember, in tighter liquidity environments, market participants tend to consolidate around higher quality assets (BTC first), before rotating down the risk curve once confidence and liquidity improve – you can front run this slightly, but not so much that you run the risk of underperforming for months in the lead up (bad R/R).”

because of meme coins, as the speculative capital that would have once been poured into the top 200 assets instead jumped the gun and flooded into on-chain low caps.

So, What To Do? 

The crypto analyst admitted that it is “extremely difficult” to forecast what will happen to the crypto market in the next one to 12 weeks, as it is “largely a fool’s game” and “anything can happen.”

He then advised that it is good to apply cost averaging, or buying $BTC and top-quality altcoins for a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, regardless of the token’s price.

Technically, cost averaging is a risk management strategy that requires investors to be patient to take profit.

“It’s not easy to be patient, but it’s what is required right now. Instead of tinkering around too much with my portfolio, and chopping myself up, I’m being super strategic and spending more time on other interesting things like AI-implementation into my personal life/business. So when crazy-mode comes back I’ll be even more optimised and efficient.”
