Will Bitcoin Break Below $60K? With Kris Bullock & Bijan Maleki

Channel: Real Vision Published: 2026-06-04 01:16
Real Vision

This is an interview-style Real Vision TA session focused mainly on Bitcoin’s sharp selloff, with spillover into strategy, Hyperliquid, a few hot crypto names, and precious/industrial metals. The central message is mixed: Bitcoin looks weak tactically and may still test lower support around $60K or even the low-$50Ks, but there are enough oversold and weekly-timeframe signs to argue a local bottom could be forming. Meanwhile, a handful of relative-strength assets — especially HYPE, Purr, Venice, NEAR, and copper — stand out as much healthier charts than the broad crypto complex.

Detailed summary

The episode is a live technical-analysis discussion anchored by the recent Bitcoin drawdown and the broader rotation within crypto. The host opens with sponsorship and then frames the session around “crypto is tanking,” Bitcoin flirting with the mid-60Ks, and the idea that there are still opportunities in select assets despite the risk-off backdrop. Chris Bullock emphasizes that the market is showing mixed signals across timeframes: the daily chart looks damaged and sentiment is weak, but the weekly chart has signs of exhaustion and could be forming a base. His core Bitcoin thesis is cautious rather than outright bearish. On the daily chart, he points to the size of the selloff, low RSI readings, Bollinger-band extension, and a DeMark 8 count as signs of oversold conditions and possible near-term exhaustion. …

Main takeaways

  1. Bitcoin is oversold and near support, but the trend is still fragile until it proves a durable hold.
  2. The daily chart is weak; the weekly chart offers the first real case for a larger bottoming pattern.
  3. Order flow and sentiment remain seller-heavy, so a rebound is possible but not yet confirmed.
  4. The 200-week moving average near $62K is a key historical level to watch.
  5. Strategy/MicroStrategy’s selloff is framed as a company-structure issue, not just a Bitcoin issue.
  6. HYPE is one of the strongest crypto narratives in the room, with possible U.S. expansion catalysts.
  7. Purr is functioning as a tradable proxy for HYPE rather than a separate story.
  8. NEAR, Venice, and Zcash show strong relative performance, but some are getting extended.

Market read by horizon

Short term

Bitcoin looks tactically oversold and could bounce from current support, but the immediate setup is still fragile until it confirms a hold above the $60K area. If that level fails, the market could quickly reprice toward the low-$50Ks instead of stabilizing.

  • Bitcoin is sitting on the bottom of its range and is oversold enough to justify a reflex bounce attempt.
Show more
  • A daily DeMark 9 is due imminently, which Chris treats as a possible local-low signal.
  • The immediate risk is a clean loss of the $60K area or a gap into lower support near the low-$50Ks.
Mid term

Over the next few weeks, the base case is a choppy bottoming process rather than a clean reversal. A weekly higher low near the 200-week moving average would improve the case materially; failure there would keep the larger downtrend intact.

  • Over the next several weeks, the key question is whether Bitcoin can build a higher low on the weekly chart and defend the 200-week moving average area.
Show more
  • If that support holds, the current selloff could become an extended bottoming process rather than a clean continuation lower.
  • If Bitcoin continues to weaken into the next few weeks, Chris thinks the market could remain range-bound or drift lower for longer than bulls want.
Long term

This looks like a more institutionally dominated crypto regime than prior cycles, where a few assets with real utility or value accrual can separate from the rest. The long-run implication is that narrative alone is less reliable than structural demand, regulation, and token economics.

  • The market regime appears to be shifting toward a more institutional and ETF-driven structure than prior crypto cycles.
Show more
  • Bitcoin’s long-term thesis is still intact in Chris’s view, but the path may be extended and choppy rather than V-shaped.
  • Crypto is increasingly bifurcated: a broad weak beta complex versus a smaller set of assets with durable narratives and actual usage.

Key claims (9)

BEARISH crypto technicals Bitcoin

Bitcoin’s daily momentum is weak, sellers are still dominating order flow, and the move has already become one of the largest down days of the recent cycle.

Chris ties together the large red candle, low RSI, and his order-flow indicator showing net sellers outpacing buyers.

BULLISH crypto technicals Bitcoin

Bitcoin may be forming a local bottom because the RSI is oversold and DeMark exhaustion signals often line up with short-term lows.

He cites prior instances where low RSI and DeMark 9 signals marked tradable bottoms, while admitting they sometimes only produced countertrend rallies.

BULLISH crypto technicals Bitcoin

The weekly chart is more constructive than the daily one because Bitcoin is near the 200-week moving average and may be printing a bullish RSI divergence.

Chris argues that a touch of the 200-week average plus a higher RSI low could support a broader bottoming pattern.

Assets discussed (15)

Bitcoin — BTC
MIXED crypto

Daily chart is weak and sellers dominate order flow, but the weekly chart is oversold and near a historically important support zone, so a local bottom is still possible.

Micro Strategy — MSTR
MIXED stock

Chart resembles Bitcoin and has a higher RSI low, but the move is clouded by concerns about the firm’s derivatives, yield products, and Bitcoin sales to fund obligations.

Interview (7 Q&A)

greeting

Chris, how are you doing? Happy Wednesday.

Chris says he's doing well and is excited for the new format and larger audience. He mentions they've been doing the show for about two years and he has a lot of charts to dig into.

sentiment comparison

Does sentiment feel like it did around 2022, or is this the lowest sentiment you've felt since being in crypto?

The guest says yes, it does feel like 2022. But he notes key differences: in 2022 there were multiple soul-crushing catalysts (Terra Luna collapse, 3AC, Celsius, BlockFi, FTX) that cascaded, whereas this cycle hasn't had the same kind of major catalysts aside from the October 10th event with some fallout.

cycle timing

Do recent market events rhyme with previous crypto cycle bottoms, and could this setup lead to another leg lower before recovery?

The guest says cyclical timing is one of the main things that keeps them up at night. They argue the four-year cycle still appears to be intact until proven otherwise, note that prior bear markets lasted about 12 months, and suggest the current pattern could still chop sideways or even resolve lower before any recovery.

Where this transcript pushes against consensus

  • Chris is not fully convinced Bitcoin has bottomed; the weekly looks constructive, but the daily and monthly trends remain weak.
  • He is skeptical that the current setup can recover quickly enough to invalidate the broader downtrend without a major catalyst.
  • He questions whether MicroStrategy’s more complex product structure is justified, implying the market may be punishing corporate engineering rather than Bitcoin exposure alone.
  • He treats Worldcoin as a good technology but a weak token investment, which may conflict with more bullish pure-tech interpretations.
  • He suggests gold should have done better on fundamentals, but price action disagrees, highlighting a gap between macro narrative and chart reality.
