Market analyst Ben Cowen claimed that the purification of millions of altcoins has already begun, a necessary process for Bitcoin's sustainable bull run. According to CoinDesk, over 11 million problematic tokens disappeared from the market last year alone, leading Bitcoin dominance to reclaim 60%. Cowen warned, "Capital is either flowing out of risky assets and consolidating into Bitcoin or moving to the sidelines," adding that Bitcoin could fall back below $60,000 if it fails to firmly establish $88,880 as a support level. He defined 2026 not as a year for new highs, but as a 'reset year' where the bubble deflates.
