An interesting phenomenon: usually, Bitcoin leads crude oil to bottom and top out, but this round is clearly different. Crude oil is still heading down, while Bitcoin may have already approached the end of its cycle (estimated around some time in 2026).
Looking at the weekly chart of crude oil, the pattern looks pretty good, showing a beautiful bullish divergence, combined with RSI in oversold territory, and a large triangle forming. This suggests that the bottom for crude oil prices may have already appeared or is just around the corner.
If oil prices really rebound from this level, the stimulus to inflation will be very direct, and this inflation pressure could be a positive for crypto assets—meaning Bitcoin might usher in new upward momentum. The current question is, when will both of them synchronize?

Oil prices this wave are really strange, it feels like the entire narrative has gone haywire.
Synchronization? Probably won't happen, brother.
2026 is still early, let's see how oil prices move next year.
RSI is indeed oversold to a very low level, but a rebound isn't guaranteed either.
Is the inflation bullish logic still working now? It's a bit uncertain.
Breaking the pattern that Bitcoin leads feels pretty uncomfortable.
Oil needs to rebound for us to be sure; right now, it's all empty talk.

Oil prices haven't kept up all along, but this time it's really a bit different.
Wait, do you mean Bitcoin's lifespan has already ended? Is it over by 2026?
Bull market divergence + oversold conditions, it does look like a rebound is coming... but can it trigger inflation? This is uncertain.
Both need to move upward; right now, one is dead and the other is alive. What's the point of syncing?

Why does it feel like this wave of oil prices has been dragging on for so long? Bitcoin is about to complete its cycle, but it's still hesitating.
Bull market separation + oversold + triangle, the chart looks really great, but the key is when will they start to move in sync?

We can only have a chance if oil prices really rebound.

Oil prices are really about to rebound this time, and inflation will cause trouble again then.
The disconnection between Bitcoin and oil prices is indeed strange; we still have to wait for them to synchronize.
I'm half convinced about the bull market divergence pattern... we'll see how it unfolds next.
If both move in sync, we could really benefit from that inflation wave, but it all depends on the timing.
If oil prices rise, Bitcoin will have a chance, but this rhythm is too confusing.
