Bitcoin Rainbow Chart Signals ‘Fire Sale’ Zone as BTC Enters Undervalued Territory
Bitcoin’s price has plunged into zones historically tagged by long‑term valuation models as “fire sale” levels, according to the latest Bitcoin Rainbow Chart from Bitcoin Magazine Pro. The sentiment‑laden nomenclature — often shared jokingly in bitcoin circles — now has a more serious undertone amid one of the deepest corrective phases in recent cycle history.
The Bitcoin Rainbow Chart is a long‑term logarithmic valuation tool and it overlays price against a spectrum of colored bands, historically interpreted as oversold, fairly valued, or overbought.
After an extended drawdown from cycle highs, Bitcoin’s price now sits in one of the lower bands traditionally associated with deep undervaluation — colloquially referenced as “fire sale” territory.
At the time of writing, BTC is struggling at the $83,000 level, after months of repeated sell-offs. BTC has shed roughly 30% of its value since early October 2025, trading as low as the $80,000s — triggering widespread leveraged liquidations.
