BTC has been hanging on the $20k area for 4 months now since early june. The longer the consolidation on a price range, the bigger the capitulation can be if it breaks to the downside.. macroeconomic view looks like trash. BTC still hasn't decoupled from the SP500, and the SP500 is still 700 points away from pre-covid printing measures which to me it means the price is still overvalued, which in turn means BTC will follow a sub $20k capitulation. The only 2 scenarios I see where we pump:

1) The Russia-Ukraine insanity is resolved. You wake up with the good news at any given day, prices go up
2) That BTC decouples from the SP500 during this situation and actually starts acting as a store of value and not just a good investment during low interest rates

The one thing you seams to forget. Market does not estimates present. It always tries to calcualate 1 year ahead. Its not that everything bad needs to stop and we have to have flow of good news to see a bottom. Bottom will be 1 year before first good news from economy. Same was in 2008. The biggest amount of bad news was right on the market bottom. So if now "macroeconomic view looks like trash" it doesnt mean we have to go anymore lower.

Also bitcoin reached ATH 3 month before SP500. Its possible that bitcoin will reach the bottom 3 months before SP500 which will reach the bottom 1 year before first good news from economy.

Also fiats are going down at a rate >10% per year so sooner or later fiat denominated assets needs to stop falling. Its not regular recession. Its stagflation. Like in 1970-1980.

It is possible that bitcoin and the entire financial market will be pumped if this news happens, but there is no guarantee that bitcoin will stay high and the uptrend season will come immediately. You should remember that we are still in bear season and the bear cycle lasts 4 years, and another thing is that we entered a bear market before the war so the current drop in prices is only partially affected by the war, the main cause is still in the yearly bear cycle.

2) That BTC decouples from the SP500 during this situation and actually starts acting as a store of value and not just a good investment during low interest rates

I think there is no relevance here, simply because when inflation occurs, risky assets will all be affected and decrease in price because of dumping.

Market conditions affect all assets similarly, this does not mean there is a correlation between assets or they need to be decoupled, it just means that they are reacting to the current market actions, negatively or positively.

2) That BTC decouples from the SP500 during this situation and actually starts acting as a store of value and not just a good investment during low interest rates
I find this point ironic. Bitcoin has been one of the best performing assets of the last decade, not just during low interest rates.

Lightning network is good with small amount of BTC
This does not change that history will repeats itself. If bitcoin price decrease, it can not go down more $10000 and this has nothing to do with the Russia and Ukraine war. The time is coming when the bear market would finally be over which would be followed by another bull run. Anything can happen this time, the price of bitcoin may decrease further, or maybe not, but we should prepare if it decreases. If any further significant decrease occur, this would significantly result to a bull run that may increase the price of bitcoin to over $30000 again.
