@Sykodelic_
Pseudonymous crypto analyst with about 73,000 followers on X. Sykodelic posts several times a day, mostly on Bitcoin, and sells a newsletter called Syko Therapy. His view through 2026 is that Bitcoin's fall from its 2025 high is a correction in the middle of a cycle and not a bear market. He has held that view in every month of our sample, and his timing has often been wrong. On 27 April, at $78,638, he wrote that the bottom was in, and on 1 July Bitcoin was at $58,566. He said the low would hold near there, and Bitcoin rose to $86,597 on 22 September. In the autumn he expected 90K and then 100K. Neither came, and Bitcoin is at $69,248.
In short. Sykodelic posts to about 73,000 followers on X as @Sykodelic_. On fifteen dated calls from April to November 2026, thirteen on Bitcoin and two on Ethereum, the record is 4 played out, 4 open, 7 went against. Four calls played out: that the low near 60K would hold, that Bitcoin's next large move would be up, that Ethereum would go to 2,400, and that a large fall would follow the September high. Seven went against him, and most of them named a price and a date. Since the 22 October call Bitcoin is 17.6% lower.
Sykodelic is a pseudonym. The X account was opened in January 2022, and the bio begins “7+ Year Crypto Veteran | Macro Specialist”. On 17 June 2026 he wrote “I am actually British, I just moved to NZ 13 years ago”. On 11 June he wrote that he had once lost everything in crypto: “I lost most of the money i made from selling a business(over $250,000).” In the same post he wrote that he later “became very comfortable financially within the same industry”. He has not published a legal name. The profile picture is a drawing of a mask, and this page uses it as the portrait.
How the sample was built: X search returned 3,002 of the account's own posts from 18 April to 13 November 2026. Of these, 655 are not replies, and 325 of those mention Bitcoin. The search gave errors for some days, so the sample is not complete. Most posts comment on the week's price and on the levels he watches. We chart the posts that make a checkable claim: a price level with a time frame, a statement that the low is in, or a trade of his own. He repeats his main claims many times, so each one is charted once, at the first clear post.
Posts we did not chart, and why. Many posts say the same thing again. On 24 May he wrote “We will be hitting new highs way before we ever see $60k again.” That repeats the 27 April call, and five weeks later the daily mark was below 60K. Many other posts depend on a weekly close above or below a level, and they do not say which will happen. Posts on levels for the next few days are not charted, because our price data is daily. Two of those missed. On 6 May he wrote “Bitcoin will likely top out locally around $86,000…”, and the highest mark in May was $82,018. On 15 September he wrote “I expect this to go a bit deeper, $70k - $73k.” Bitcoin rose to its high of the year a week later and came to that range only in November.
What the account says about its own record. Sykodelic admits misses in public. On 5 June, after Bitcoin went below its February low, he wrote “I honestly did not expect that to happen and will willingly admit I got that wrong.” On 14 October he wrote “Yeh I got it wrong, I didn’t initially think we would mid cycle correct as severe as we did.” His own scoring is sometimes kinder than the price. On 21 August, after Bitcoin jumped, he wrote “I was calling this move higher for weeks.” That is true of his 4 August post. He had also been short since 10 August, and he closed that part with “bitcoin had other plans”. He writes often that his signals have never failed. On 13 November he wrote that Bitcoin had lost all its regained levels on the first retest: “Literally never happened.”

Cycle comparison, weekly closes and on-chain data. Sykodelic compares the present market with earlier Bitcoin cycles and argues that 2026 looks like 2019 and 2020, a correction in the middle of a cycle. He ties this to the business cycle and to the copper-to-gold ratio. For timing he watches weekly closes against a few fixed levels and moving averages, and he says what he expects above and below each one. He adds on-chain data: how many coins are held at a loss, what long-term holders are doing, and what short-term holders paid. He holds his main view through large moves against it and says so. He buys coins without leverage and sometimes takes short-term leveraged trades.
Bullish for the long term, and waiting for support in the short term. On 10 November Sykodelic wrote “I am still not of the mind that new lows come. The bottom structure is too strong.” On 13 November, after Bitcoin fell through the averages he was watching, he wrote “Next level I’d expect to act as decent support is 200w SMA at $67,000.” The 200w SMA is the average price of the last 200 weeks.
Fifteen dated calls from Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_)'s own X posts, thirteen on Bitcoin and two on Ethereum, charted against real price. The tally is 4 played out, 4 open, 7 went against.
“It will make way for a much more complex bottoming scenario, with my first target being $67,000 where the 1W 200SMA is now sitting. If this does happen, I am still not of the mind that new lows come. The bottom structure is too strong.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $75,267. The post names a condition: Bitcoin loses its 200-day average, which he called the strongest line of defence for the bulls. Three days later he wrote that it had. The daily mark on 13 November was $71,372 (−5.2%), and Bitcoin is at $69,248 (−8.0%). The 67,000 target is about 3% below that. The second part says that the summer low will hold. Our lowest daily mark is $58,566, on 1 July. Open.
𝕏 Post“I am still not of the mind that new lows come.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“Invalidation levels are also so clear. Lose all the key EMA+SMA's below $72k and you can cut it.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $75,775. The post began “The risk to reward does not really get better.” Sykodelic listed his signals and gave an exit: below 72K, where the moving averages sat. Six days later the daily mark was $71,372 (−5.8%), below that exit, and Bitcoin is at $69,248 (−8.6%). On 13 November he wrote that Bitcoin had lost all of those levels. Went against: the exit he named was reached within a week. The same post called 58K the low, and that part has held so far.
𝕏 Post“Lose all the key EMA+SMA's below $72k and you can cut it.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“If we bottom here it could mean a measured move up to around $3,880. Similar to Bitcoin, Ethereum has broken its downtrend and dips here are for buying.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $2,254. Ethereum rose to $2,423 (+7.5%) on 5 November and then fell. It is at $1,959 (−13.1%), so it did not bottom where he wrote. The target depends on a bottom and has no date. To reach 3,880 from here, the price would have to about double. Open.
𝕏 Post“If we bottom here it could mean a measured move up to around $3,880.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“My bias is we head towards $100k before our first major pullback from the lows.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $84,082. No daily mark since has been higher. Bitcoin fell through late October and November. The daily mark on 13 November was $71,372 (−15.1%), and Bitcoin is at $69,248 (−17.6%). Went against: the pullback came first, and 100K was about a fifth away when he wrote. On 26 October he had repeated the view: “I still think we get a fair bit higher before a meaningful pullback.” On 7 November he called the fall the first major pullback himself.
𝕏 Post“My bias is we head towards $100k before our first major pullback from the lows.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“My analysis says higher first, but this could happen any time, with the target being something around $80k or high $70k's.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $86,183, one day after the highest mark in our data. The post began “There will be a big drop.” and said it would come within the next few weeks. It came. The daily mark on 26 October was $80,049 (−7.1%), and on 31 October it was $77,275 (−10.3%), inside the range he named. Played out. Two parts of the post did not hold. He expected one more push to about 90K first, and the highest later mark was $86,490 (+0.4%), on 5 October. He also wrote “This will be a dip for buying, not a dip to sell on.” Bitcoin went on down and is at $69,248 (−19.7%).
𝕏 Post“the target being something around $80k or high $70k's” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“$90k is the next target. Historically, once the 50SMA is reclaimed from HTF oversold conditions, Bitcoin puts in a powerful move higher. It has done this every single time, without fail. If we follow the same pattern, I would expect a swift move higher into $90k.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $81,169. The 50SMA is the average price of the last 50 weeks. The next day the mark was $86,597 (+6.7%), the highest in our data, and that was the top. Bitcoin did not reach 90K. Sykodelic repeated the target on 29 September and on 4 October. On 1 November he wrote “We got a push up to $87,000, not quite the $90,000's yet...” Bitcoin is at $69,248 (−14.7%). Went against: the move stopped about 4% short of the target and then turned down.
𝕏 Post“$90k is the next target.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“I personally am unbothered if we drop a lil more or not. Regardless, I believe the next major move for $ETH is to the $2,400 range high area.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $1,874. Five days later, on 22 August, the daily mark was $2,515 (+34.2%), above his target. No mark after the post was lower than the price of the post. Ethereum rose to $2,775 (+48.1%) on 22 September and has fallen since. It is at $1,959 (+4.5%). Played out: the target was reached within a week.
𝕏 Post“I believe the next major move for $ETH is to the $2,400 range high area.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“What I am expecting here is a that long awaited drop into $60,500, that would end up being the final move lower before we go meaningfully higher.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026The daily mark for that date is $64,856. The post began “My short is filled.” Sykodelic gave his entry as 65,000, and in a reply he set the invalidation at a strong daily close above 67,000. He had waited for 60,500 since early July. The lowest mark after the post was $62,844 (−3.1%), on 17 August. On 20 August the mark was $69,291 (+6.8%), and two days later $78,318 (+20.8%). Went against: the fall did not come, and the price went through his invalidation. On 21 August he wrote that the short was a hedge and that “bitcoin had other plans”.
𝕏 Post“What I am expecting here is a that long awaited drop into $60,500” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“Bitcoins next major move is very likely to the upside here. And very likely to begin this month.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $63,465, after a month of little movement. The move began on 20 August. The daily mark on 22 August was $78,318 (+23.4%), and on 28 August it was $80,268 (+26.5%). Played out, in the month he named. Before the move the lowest mark was $62,844 (−1.0%). He did not hold a long for it: he had hoped to buy at 60,500 and was short when the move began. Bitcoin is at $69,248 (+9.1%).
𝕏 Post“Bitcoins next major move is very likely to the upside here.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“I estimate that Bitcoin will hit between $380,000 and $450,000 from March 2028 onwards. This will be the full cycle top that comes after this current mid cycle correction.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $63,701. This is his target for the top of the cycle, and the full argument is in his paid newsletter. On 12 October he repeated it and narrowed the time: “Any time between Feb/March - September 2028.” Bitcoin rose to $86,597 (+35.9%) on 22 September and is at $69,248 (+8.7%). To reach 380,000 from here, the price would have to rise about five and a half times. Open until 2028.
𝕏 Post“I estimate that Bitcoin will hit between $380,000 and $450,000 from March 2028 onwards.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“I think we end up $70k+ by the end of July. I favour this path to get there.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $64,001. The highest daily mark in July was $66,521 (+3.9%), on 22 July. On 31 July the mark was $64,743 (+1.2%). Went against: Bitcoin did not come near 70K in July. The first mark above 70K came three weeks after his date, on 21 August, at $73,021 (+14.1%). Bitcoin is at $69,248 (+8.2%).
𝕏 Post“I think we end up $70k+ by the end of July.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“However, overall, I think the $60k low holds, with a maximum sweep level of $54,000, which we would want to see recover fairly quickly.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $64,253. Sykodelic expected one more dip under the 60K low and set 54,000 as the limit. The dip came. The daily mark went below 60K on 26 June, at $59,727 (−7.0%), and the low was $58,566 (−8.9%) on 1 July, well above his limit. Bitcoin then rose to $86,597 (+34.8%) on 22 September. It is at $69,248 (+7.8%). Played out so far: the low has held for four months. The call fails if Bitcoin goes below 54,000.
𝕏 Post“I think the $60k low holds, with a maximum sweep level of $54,000” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“I truly believe we are going to see a recovery close to ATH by the end of the year, and we will front run the very expected October bottom.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $64,409. ATH means all-time high, which Sykodelic puts at 126K, in October 2025. The second part held: the low of the year so far came on 1 July, not in October. The first part is far away. Bitcoin rose to $86,597 (+34.4%) on 22 September and is at $69,248 (+7.5%). To be near 126K by 31 December, the price would have to rise by about four fifths in seven weeks. On 21 July he moved the date and wrote that Bitcoin would be back at the highs by early next year. Open until the end of the year.
𝕏 Post“I truly believe we are going to see a recovery close to ATH by the end of the year” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“We are in the most sensitive area right now for BTC and USDT.D, where the next overall direction is going to be decided very soon. BTC up USDT.D down June. Soon.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $73,652. USDT.D is the share of the stablecoin Tether in the crypto market, and it falls when coins rise. The post began “This is going to dump hard in June.” and meant that share. Bitcoin fell in June. Six days after the post the daily mark was $64,047 (−13.0%), and on 30 June it was $60,152 (−18.3%). Went against. In a second post the same day he wrote that two weekly closes below 74K would be a trend change and would take Bitcoin deep into the 60Ks. That happened. He ended that post with “Regardless though, i think the bottom is in.”
𝕏 Post“BTC up USDT.D down June. Soon.” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.com“To me, with my system, this has now confirmed that the bottom is in with higher than 90%. Bitcoin has fully reclaimed HTF Bullish structure and my thesis of an expanded flat has been confirmed. Every single time it has done this, the bottom has been in. All eyes on the $80k - $90k level for May. New highs this year.”
Prices in this text as of 13 Nov 2026Said at $78,638, after a weekly close above the level he had watched for months. By the bottom he meant the February low near 60K. Bitcoin rose to $82,018 (+4.3%) on 11 May and did not reach 90K. In June it fell through his level. The daily mark was $59,727 (−24.0%) on 26 June and $58,566 (−25.5%) on 1 July, below the February low. Went against. On 5 June he wrote “I honestly did not expect that to happen and will willingly admit I got that wrong.” Bitcoin is at $69,248 (−11.9%), and the highest mark of the year in our data is $86,597 (+10.1%), far from a new high.
𝕏 Post“this has now confirmed that the bottom is in with higher than 90%” — Sykodelic (@Sykodelic_) on X↗ x.comOutcomes are our read of the stated claim against real price, not the account's own scoring. Selection: from 655 non-reply posts between 18 April and 13 November 2026, as returned by X search, we chart the posts that make a checkable claim: a price level with a time frame, a statement that the low is in, or a trade of his own. Each claim is charted once, at the first clear post, and repeats are named in the cards. Our price data is one mark a day, taken at midnight UTC, so the price for each call is the mark for the post's date. Lows and highs within a day are not seen: he puts the low of the year at 58K, and our lowest daily mark is $58,566. The 21 June call is graded as played out because the low stayed above the limit he gave and Bitcoin rose by a third afterwards. It would fail if Bitcoin went below 54,000. The $1,000 line on each card assumes buying, also for the 10 August call, which was a short trade.
Sykodelic's posts on X are free. He sells a newsletter and has referral deals with trading venues. Here is what we found.
The X bio links a Substack newsletter called Syko Therapy, started in November 2025. When we looked on 13 November 2026 it cost $19.99 a month or $200 a year, and Substack listed it with “Hundreds of paid subscribers”. The paid plan promises “Custom-built indicators by me with 80%+ success rate”. 38 of the 655 non-reply posts in the sample mention the newsletter, and the full argument for several charted calls is behind its paywall.
On 18 April 2026 he wrote “Come trade with me on @BloFin_Official for cheaper fees and deposit bonuses” and posted a partner link. On 4 August he wrote of the trading venue TxFlow: “Have spoken to the team and decided to partner up - will be using it for the foreseeable.” He then posted a referral code for it several times. The short trade of 10 August was taken there, by his own account.
Several posts in July show a chart from a platform called RJ Alpha and link a free trial. On 15 July he wrote “I dont get paid to share this btw.” The link he posted carries a referral tag. We cannot tell whether it pays him.
He runs a Discord group and wrote on 23 September 2026 that it is free. He posts small, risky tokens there first: “I post more things in Discord earlier.”
Sykodelic says he buys coins and holds them. On 5 June 2026 he wrote that he had “bought some $ETH”, and the daily mark for Ethereum that day was $1,769. On 8 September he wrote “I have a feeling that buy will be over a 10x by the end of the cycle.” He also posts leveraged trades at times. The posts show charts, not account statements, so we cannot check sizes or results.

On 28 July 2026 Sykodelic wrote “I estimate that Bitcoin will hit between $380,000 and $450,000 from March 2028 onwards.” On 10 November he wrote that his first target on the way down was 67,000 and added “I am still not of the mind that new lows come.”
On our sample of fifteen dated calls from April to November 2026: four played out, four are open and seven went against. His view that the low near 60K would hold has been right so far. His calls with a price and a date mostly failed: the bottom he called in April broke in June, and 70K in July, 90K in September and 100K in October did not come.
