According to @CryptoMichNL, Bitcoin has matured into a monetary asset and more players are being pushed to adopt it, implying sustained dip demand that can underpin price during corrections (source: @CryptoMichNL, X post, Dec 8, 2025). According to @CryptoMichNL, the recent market move was a harsh but regular correction, and he expects the market to surprise to the upside in Q1 2026, indicating a potential shift in momentum after the pullback (source: @CryptoMichNL, X post, Dec 8, 2025).
