Bitcoin $40,000 drop? On-chain analyst says it is statistically almost unprecedented

On-chain analyst James Check pushed back against market forecasts that bitcoin could fall to $40,000, calling the scenario statistically almost unprecedented. He said such a level would sit at the 0.4th percentile of the historical distribution for daily closes when measured with a mean reversion index that combines key on-chain indicators. Check compared $40,000 under current conditions to bitcoin trading below $2 in 2011, while noting probabilities are never zero.
