I think that is the major reason we\u2019re starting to see Bitcoin selling off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite these macro-concerns, Coutts maintains that it\u2019s unlikely we\u2019re at the end of the cycle for crypto. \u201cI\u2019m actually very positive on these assets [cryptocurrencies] right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coutts said ordinarily Bitcoin\u2019s crash since hitting a new all-time high in October would signal the crypto bull market is over, but in this case, he remains confident there\u2019s more upside based on other market signals.<\/p>\n<div id=\"blockquote-block_afe1e50711b840d1d601dcae1d9e4f7c\" class=\"blockquote-container variant-personal\">\n<div class=\"blockquote-text\">\n<p><em>We haven\u2019t gone through an expansion phase, we haven\u2019t gotten to the top of a business cycle, we have not seen excess liquidity \u2014 we\u2019ve seen the opposite.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"blockquote-attribution\">\n        <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-image lazyload\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.cryptonews.com.au\/2025\/12\/19153153\/Jamie-Coutts-Chief-Crypto-Analyst-Realvision.jpg\"\/><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.cryptonews.com.au\/2025\/12\/19153153\/Jamie-Coutts-Chief-Crypto-Analyst-Realvision.jpg\" class=\"author-image\" data-eio=\"l\"\/>        Jamie Coutts, Chief Crypto Analyst, Realvision    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Coutts also believes US President Donald Trump will put out all the stops next year to \u201cgoose\u201d the economy ahead of the US midterm elections \u2014 pumping liquidity into the system and likely helping to boost crypto prices.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s gonna do everything he can to get re-elected, they\u2019re going to issue as many bills as they can on the short end,\u201d Coutts said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis plays into my thesis around why I\u2019m bullish.
