The post Bitcoin Bottom at $46K? Willy Woo Signals Key Support Zone appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

On-chain expert Willy Woo projects Bitcoin’s bottom may land between $46,000 and $54,000, citing the CVDD Floor Model near $45,500 and historical patterns from past bear markets.

Meanwhile, prediction markets like Polymarket currently price a 54% chance of BTC hitting $45,000 by year-end, highlighting mixed sentiment between caution and opportunistic buying.
