There needs to be a balance for a collapse not to happen, the only time we experience collapse is where there's an imbalance at some point within certain areas of a system, now let's get it straight, Bitcoin is not a system that I will say has imbalance hovering around it but the system out there that allows for the flow of money and the transfer of assets and wealth can in a way affect the supply and demand of Bitcoin which in turn affects the consistency of Bitcoin to make it look like there's an imbalance even when we know  Bitcoin is independent of all of that due tot it's decentralized nature.

A readjustment to economic realities of the times is most what's playing out now that sounds and looks like there's a collapse but actually it will be a sieving of the firm amd long term holders from the short-term before the seeming restoration of stability which ofcourse is a cycle.
