In this insightful clip from *Market Mondays*, Bitcoin and crypto analyst Ian Dunlap tackles one of the hottest topics in crypto right now: the recent pullback after Bitcoin hit its high. Ian reminds us that in traditional markets, a price drop after a peak is typical—not something to panic about. So, why is the crypto crowd so surprised by this correction?Ian shares his expert take on where smart investors should be looking to enter, highlighting $104,977 as a prime entry point. He addresses the talk and fear swirling in the market about deeper drops all the way to $82,000, and explains why that fear (or "FUD") might be overblown.Looking ahead, Ian's outlook is confident: give Bitcoin two months, and we could see it climb right back to the $120K–$125K range and likely surpass previous all-time highs. For anyone wondering if now is the time to get in—or freaking out about volatility—this clip offers grounded, level-headed perspective from an industry pro.*Key highlights from this clip:*Why market pullbacks after all-time highs are normal—even in crypto.Ian’s preferred Bitcoin entry price: $104,977.Thoughts on the much-discussed $82K drop and why it shouldn’t worry you.A clear timeline and price prediction for Bitcoin’s potential rebound.Addressing FUD and why patience is key for crypto investors.Stay tuned for straight-talking commentary and practical insights that cut through the noise.
