Bitcoin has fallen by more than 56 percent since the turn of the year, after peaking at nearly $20,000 in December 2017.

CoinMarketCap price charts show that bitcoin has been falling for weeks, though this latest crash has been blamed on mounting confusion surrounding the Indian Governments stance on cryptocurrencies.

The main reason during this moment of falling down was due to MT.Gox revealed activities of selling of massive of Bitcoin which worth billion of dollars. Because of this the Bitcoin price crashed in which it create a panic selling for most of the holders of Bitcoins and Altcoins but now the Bitcoin is recovering and starting to a bullish performance but we should always be aware as this is probably manipulated by the big whales once again like Mt. Gox who are pretending as an exchange but i believed they are one of the big whales that manipulating the market.

Bitcoin falls due to the increase or decrease in the demand for it and also if some negative news come in the market that also affects people to stop them investing in it. This is very weak as compared to Bitcoin because we have noticed the survival of Bitcoin besides external forces and these negativities. People have defeated these negativities and now the price is on the increase trend.

I think there's really not much to it. It falls and rises since it's volatile. It reacts to simple good newd or fud. There are times when whales manipulate the value. We'll just stress ourselves out if we try to figure why the price moves like it does.

Price being volatile is a common factor with bitcoin. Most of the time the price used to fluctuate between two price points and finally after certain time period it'll grow marking a new price. Now the price seems to fall low because of the FUD that has been getting circulated and the whales making it an opportunity to manipulate the market.

The fall bitcoin is experiencing is due to several uncontrolled factors, such as bad news and negative opinions from people who are known to have a big influence in the global market like investors or financial experts or just casual talks from ordinary people with misconceptions about the nature of bitcoin as a cryptocurrency. Public has a wide number of audience and one wrong information can ruin the entire process.
