Bitcoin faces a potential sharp decline if certain triggers materialize. Three critical factors could derail the bull case heading into Q1 2026: regulatory ambiguity around the Clarity Act, Federal Reserve policy shifts, and the possibility of another government shutdown. Any of these developments would pose serious headwinds for the crypto market's momentum during what many expect to be a pivotal quarter.

Another bearish argument... but to be honest, these risks do indeed exist.

Here we go again, with the same old story about policy risks. Every time they say Q1 will be like this or that, but the crypto market still keeps moving upward as usual.

I should have known earlier, policy-related issues are always the biggest variables. Things like the Clarity Act, dragging on and on, can easily cause a market crash.

It's the same old story again—regulation, the Federal Reserve, government shutdown... does it ever really end?

Regulation, the Federal Reserve, government shutdown... they've really delivered a triple blow to the bear market. It feels like Q1 will be very bloody.

Here we go again, criticizing Bitcoin? It's always the same three points, getting tired of hearing them.
