Jesse Eckel believes the last quarter of 2025 will be one of the most critical in crypto’s history. In his latest video, he outlines a month-by-month breakdown of how he’s approaching the end of the year – and why he thinks the real bull run may only be getting started.
Eckel’s Outlook – Key Points
-
October looks bullish overall, but the first 2 weeks may stay fragile due to Treasury bill auctions pulling liquidity
-
Once that passes, a potential rate cut at the end of October could send the market flying
-
November could open the gates for altseason, though strong October gains might pull forward price action
-
December is less certain and heavily depends on whether a second or third rate cut happens
-
Many still expect a cycle top by year-end, but Eckel believes the real macro catalysts arrive in 2026
-
He expects rate cuts, stimulus, and inflation-driven policies - especially if Trump wins - to fuel a longer crypto cycle
-
Predicts this could be crypto’s first 5-year cycle, with a peak closer to 2026–2027, not 2025
Final Takeaway
Eckel is staying bullish but cautious through year-end, with a clear eye on 2026 as the bigger opportunity window.
