Bitcoin is really low now, but it seems to have support at $23K. Analysts warn of a dire drop to $8K as global debt unwinds.
Crypto market is crashing again.
What seemed a huge fall in May, proved to be a very little trouble indeed.
June is much more disastrous.
Bitcoin crashed to a whopping $23,000. Altcoins have gone south completely.
But it’s not even nearly the bottom.
Experts predict Bitcoin could go as low as $8,000.
What is really low for Bitcoin?
BTC’s sell-off is easing slightly, but traders are afraid that negative newsflow and future U.S. interest rate hikes could push the price lower.
Bitcoin’s (BTC) month-long choppy price action came to an end on June 13 after a deep market sell-off pressed the top cryptocurrency under the $29,000 support. The move took place as equities markets also sold off sharply, hitting their lowest levels of the year.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that the Bitcoin sell-off began late in the day on June 12 and escalated into midday on June 13, when BTC hit a low of $22,592.
Here’s a look at what several market analysts are saying about Bitcoin’s drop and whether this is the final capitulation event before the long-awaited price bottom.
Will there be a solid support for $23,000?
Previous instances of bear market capitulation have seen a solid level of support at Bitcoin’s 200-week moving average, as shown in the following chart posted by market analyst and pseudonymous Twitter user “Rekt Capital.”
Based on the trend from the last two cycles, Rekt Capital suggested that it’s possible that BTC could see a “macro double bottom at the 200-week moving average” moving forward if the price action plays out in a similar fashion.
“If so, then $BTC is very close to forming its first Macro Bottom at the 200-week MA at ~$23,000. The second Macro Bottom could form in about two years’ time at a price point of ~$41,000,” Rekt Capital said.
Bitcoin could go as low as $13,000 or even $8,000
Insight into where Bitcoin could potentially be headed should it continue to break below the established support levels was provided by data from pseudonymous analyst “Whalemap,“ who posted the following chart highlighting the previously established support levels that could now flip to resistance.
“Bitcoin has broken through key realised price supports where they will likely become our new resistances. $13,331 is the ultimate max pain bottom,” Whalemap said.
According to Francis Hunt, a market analyst also known under the pseudonym “The Market Sniper,” Bitcoin price could drop to as low at $8,000 before hitting a real bottom.
