Virtual currency market conditions

In the crypto asset (virtual currency) market, the Bitcoin price rose 0.46% from the previous day to 1 BTC = $42,993.

Michaël van de Poppe assumes a scenario in which the subsequent price movement is negated by the high return of 1 BTC = $46,000 and falls below $40,000.

Primary scenario for #Bitcoin is basically a rejection at $46K and then a correction to sub $40K.

Still liquidity ready to be taken there and it would cause a chain reaction across the markets, FUD, negative sentiment (unjustified) and such.

Julio Moreno considers the prospects for the downside of Bitcoin (BTC) based on the realized price.

How low can Bitcoin go after this recent correction?

To evaluate this I like to look at the realized price of 1 to 3 month-old holders.

This metric has represented a support level historically and during 2023. It stands right now at $36.7K. pic.twitter.com/B0ZnmaE8cT

Based on the realized price, which represents the average purchase price of holders (short-term holders) who have purchased Bitcoin for 1 to 3 months, they concluded that 1 BTC = $36,700 would be important if the correction is prolonged.

If the market falls below this level, it will be interpreted as a sign of further downward pressure, and maintaining this level could lead to market stability.

Arthur Hayes, founder of BitMex, said: “The bull market is just beginning. 2024 will be a bumpy year, but by the end of this year, Bitcoin’s market capitalization will surpass its all-time high.” I’m predicting that,” he said.
