Bitcoin investors are feeling sad now especially the weak hodler due to the recent drop of the asset. One could really tell this feeling, especially the high Hopes injected by the approval of the Bitcoin spot ETF, the awaiting halving which will reduce/cut bitcoin mining profits in half. Speculators have already thought of what that will mean and the direct impact that will be on the price of the asset. Therefore many as accumulated bitcoin assets with the hopes that it will be mooning. The truth is, bitcoin and crypto asset in general are a very volatile asset and you never expect it to keep pumbing in one direction untill investors wakes up at a million dollar per bitcoin unit.
But wait a minute,is crypto market changing character ?
Should we have to cast our mind back through the past, bitcoin and crypto in general had been struggling to make an uprise moves dating back to 29, Agust,22. Struggling to wake from a grass price of $19539 And 20579. The asset even dropped lesser to $16534 as at 12,Dec, 2022. From there bitcoin/ crypto currencies moves started experiencing an uptrend till date. Recently Bitcoin made it to the highs of $49000, on 11,January,2024 due to the approval of bitcoin sport ETF.The problem is, many investors and traders lack patience, which lead them to selling off thier holding out of panic and fomo. Well it is understood that the law of supply and demand affects the market. Now the law of Demand Which state that the costlier the price of a product, the lower the demand for that product which eventually leads to supply entering the market. But could this be the scenario? Well, nothing goes up steadily and nothing comes down consistently, and crypto markets are not exceptional. It happens in all the market you can think of; fx market, options market, stock market and crypto market. Price doesn't go in one direction. Eventually in uptrend market, price doesn't still move in one direction, there must be pull backs and liquidity grabbing. Those moves are the contributing behaviours of the market participants (traders and investors)
