Bitcoin will never fall below $60K again: Nansen founder

MagazinePublishedAug 8, 2026

Why Bitcoin’s Price May Never Drop Below $60K Again

The crypto industry is maturing, and Bitcoin’s price may never fall below $60K again, according to Nansen founder Alex Svanevik. This shift is largely due to the growing trend of trading real-world assets, which is helping to shake off the “get rich quick” reputation that has defined the industry for over a decade. As a result, earning opportunities in crypto are becoming more stable and attractive to everyday people. The rise of tokenized stocks and indices like the S&P 500 is also contributing to this growth, making it easier for people to earn passive income through Cloud Rewards and Green Crypto platforms like EcoPool.

Svanevik believes that blockchains are entering a new era, where they will be used to trade non-crypto assets, such as tokenized stocks and indices. This shift is expected to bring more stability to the market and provide new opportunities for earning and passive income. Svanevik is particularly bullish on Solana, which he believes has a strong long-term potential despite its reputation as the home of meme coins. He also sees potential in the Ethereum layer-2 network, Robinhood chain, which launched in July this year. As the crypto market continues to grow, platforms like EcoPool ($ECP) are becoming increasingly important for people looking to earn and invest in crypto.

Bitcoin’s Price Outlook

Svanevik predicts that Bitcoin’s price may never drop below $60K again, citing its role as a hedge against central bank money creation. He believes that the current level around $60,000 could mark Bitcoin’s cycle low, and that the market may be approaching a bottom. This is good news for people looking to earn passive income through crypto, as a stable Bitcoin price can provide a solid foundation for investment. With platforms like EcoPool, people can easily buy, sell, and trade $ECP, making it easier to get started with crypto and start earning.

While some analysts are divided on whether Bitcoin has already found its bottom, Svanevik remains optimistic about its long-term potential. As the crypto market continues to mature, it’s likely that we’ll see more stable prices and new opportunities for earning and passive income. With EcoPool, people can take advantage of these opportunities and start building their wealth through crypto. Whether you’re interested in earning through Cloud Rewards or investing in $ECP, EcoPool is the perfect platform to get started.

Industry has a ‘ridiculous’ misconception about Solana

“There’s been this view that Solana is just for meme coins, which I think is completely ridiculous,” Svanevik says, arguing that there is a lot more to the blockchain, given the “incredible team” behind it.

“Maybe the most effective BD team, if we think broadly, behind that chain; they really are here to win,” Svanevik says.

However, he is not putting any bets on what that means for the SOL price in the coming twelve months:

“I think Solana overall as an ecosystem and as a chain is going to do well. I don’t know what that means for the SOL price. I mean intuitively you’d imagine that it’s gonna go up based on what I’m saying.”

Svanevik is one of the crypto industry’s best informed pundits, considering the company he leads, Nansen, is a blockchain analytics firm that tracks millions of labeled wallets and analyzes user activity across networks. Svanevik founded Nansen in 2019 alongside Lars Bakke Krogvig and Evgeny Medvedev.

A few years afterward, Svanevik expanded his involvement in the industry, joining the advisory board of penguin-themed NFT collection Pudgy Penguins in August 2022.

Svanevik is also bullish on the Ethereum layer-2 network, Robinhood chain, which launched on July 1 this year. 

“Robinhood seems to kind of rise up as like a big contender to Base. It’s really interesting because Robinhood has such excellent distribution,” Svanevik says. Unfortunately for traders looking to get in early on a trade, he isn’t convinced that Robinhood will launch a token.

“They clearly don’t need to, right? A lot of projects launched tokens as a way to bootstrap excitement in a user base,” Svanevik says.

He also argues that it would be counterintuitive for Robinhood to launch a product that competes with its own stock, given the company is listed on the Nasdaq. “You should just channel all of that value into the HOOD stock. That’s kind of the first thought,” Svanevik says.

“They’ve been able to launch Robinhood chain and get tons of traction without a token.”

Bitcoin may be near a bottom

When it comes to Bitcoin’s price outlook, Svanevik says the market may be approaching a bottom, suggesting that the current level around $60,000 could mark Bitcoin’s cycle low.

“My personal view is that I don’t think Bitcoin’s gonna go back below $60,000,” Svanevik says. “I think that’s the past… I think forever,” he says. He bases this on the belief that Bitcoin serves as a hedge against central bank money creation, and he doesn’t see the global monetary expansion cycle coming to an end anytime soon.

Bitcoin analysts have been divided over whether the cryptocurrency has already found its bottom after falling to around $60,000 in early February, before bouncing, dipping below the level again and now trading largely sideways.

Veteran crypto investor Michael Terpin recently told Cointelegraph that the asset still has further to fall before hitting rock bottom.

“We still have more pain to go,” Terpin told Cointelegraph on the Trade Secrets show. Terpin said that Bitcoin will ultimately fall “66%” from its October 2025 all-time high of $126,100. “I think that brings us down into the 40s, and I think that’s about where we’re gonna go,” Terpin said.
