Samson Mow: The Bitcoin Bull Run Has Not Started Yet

The founder of Jan3, Samson Mow, emphasized that Bitcoin (BTC) has not yet entered a bull run, urging investors to focus on the big picture. Mow noted that the recent drop in Bitcoin's price is not the end of the bull market, but rather still in the early stages. ‘Bitcoin hasn't even started its bull run yet. We're currently just managing to slightly outpace inflation,’ he stated.

Earlier this week, the price of Bitcoin fell to around $99,600, with analysts linking this situation to trade tensions between the U.S. and China, as well as other macroeconomic factors. However, Mow pointed out that despite this seemingly negative situation, Bitcoin has been performing above the U.S. inflation rate of 3% and indicated that it has significant long-term upside potential.

Mow also dismissed the recent concerns among investors about “Bitcoin OGs are selling.” He said, ‘People are coming up with their own theories and believing that the OGs are selling above $100,000. This only spreads fear. Bitcoin rewards those who think about the big picture. The price will add another zero; it’s just unclear when.’

Additionally, Mow had previously made predictions that Bitcoin could reach the level of $1 million in a short time and described this rise as a ‘brief but violent move.’ In his statements this week, he noted, ‘Bitcoin has remained horizontal throughout 2025. If you believe in cycles, it hasn’t reached the peak yet. Maybe 2026 will be the peak year, or perhaps there are no more cycles. Make your plans accordingly.’

Mow's “Reverse Fear and Greed Index” is also noteworthy. While the classic “Fear and Greed Index” fell to 23 this week, entering the ‘extreme fear’ zone, according to Jan3's own index, the market is actually exhibiting the opposite greed. The company stated, ‘The market is crying, but Bitcoin holders continue to accumulate. Because Bitcoin holders fear not missing out on satoshis, rather than the price drops.’
