Bitcoin has confirmed a bearish reversal. In the last 24 hours, the market has bled, wiping out billions in a couple of hours. As is the case, the skeptics have taken this opportunity to hit at digital assets. And as panic grows, the believers have been reassuring the market, hoping the market can find some stability.

Bakkt Slowly Gaining Momentum After Disappointing Start [altcoin.media]

After a slow start, Bakkt seems to be slowly picking up pace — despite allegedly helping drag Bitcoin prices down to the low-$8,000s yesterday. The progress has been incremental but sluggish so far, certainly not enough to justify all the hype it had created pre-launch.
Nonetheless, it is still an improvement as 217 contracts were traded on the platform on its second day, compared to the 105 from the previous day. As of the first five hours on day three, Bakkt traded more than 50 contracts.

A popular crypto analysist in Tweeter thinks that a serious market crash can actually turn out to be a positive thing for altcoins. Bitcoin holders might see the bearish trend as the beginning of the next major altcoin season.

McAfee Hints Institutional Money Won't Bring Bitcoin Revolution [bitcoin.com]

In a tweet posted Monday, September 23, Libertarian presidential candidate and crypto rebel John McAfee wrote: “BAKKT goes live today. It is institutionalized and monitored … if you are “initiated” into crypto, then you certainly won’t use it and will spend time luring the new users into the Unlimited Crypto World.” The maverick anti-politician raises an important point. The real revolution of crypto is individuals using it autonomously, privately and freely, not in institutionalization or mainstream adoption alone.

Consequently, BTC/USD is trading way below the moving averages. The widening gap between the 50 MA on the four-hour chart below the 100 MA paints a picture of a bearish momentum likely to last a significant while.
Daring to glance upwards, the first hurdle Bitcoin will face is $8,400. Trading above this level could allow for gains towards $8,800. However, the return above $9,000 will depend on the momentum Bitcoin will have on breaking $8,800 level.
