$13billions has just been wiped off of cryptocurrencies market and bitcoin has loss about $700 in just around 4 hour. I will like to ask the expect here what is really happening? I believe that for the last seven months bitcoin has not gone down like e this and bitcoin is the most hit. Ethereum has seriously getting dumped too. Are we heading towards $3000 as speculated by some of us here or bitcoin is going to recover around $5200.
What is the next step to take? Your advice is highly appreciated.
To me, this correction would have happened no matter what.
The BCH hard fork as well as other factors simply accelerated this dip. But the main thing is that we're in a bear market, and everything that is slightly negative becomes magnified and all of a sudden causes concern within investors who panic dump due to the feeling of uncertainty. That's how I view this current dump.
I could see bitcoin going further down before its rebound, possibly to the $3k to $4k level since a 80-85% retraction before the recovery comes seems to be the common trend over the past few bear markets. Don't get caught up in the emotions, in my opinion. Right now, going against the market sentiment and buying over chunks would be my strategy.
