  • The price of Bitcoin (BTC) is staggering around the $29,000 level.
  • A crypto analyst explains his reasoning behind the sudden drop.
  • He mentions many macro events to watch out for Bitcoin’s possible bounce back.

Bitcoin (BTC) is experiencing a significant drop to around $29,000 value. This drop is sparking discussions and speculations within the cryptocurrency community. Furthermore, the drop is leading to many traders sharing their point of view on why this happened.

In particular, one such analyst goes on to share his Bitcoin (BTC) price forecast on Reddit. Specifically, he shared it on the CryptoCurrency thread. In detail, he says his analysis is purely explaining why the drop happened and nothing more.

Firstly, he states the drop below $29,000 was likely due to a heavy spot sell-off. In turn, this led to a triggering of a larger liquidation cascade that wiped out over $1.5 billion in open interest. In fact, he states that approximately $9 million became liquid in a matter of minutes.

Secondly, he says the drop was due to leveraged positions in the market. He draws light to the fact that with a lot of leverage entering the markets during the unstoppable trend, this was inevitable. Following this, the open interest spiked back after the dump, suggesting that many shorts entered the market along with wiped-out long positions.

He even throws light on Coinbase. The crypto exchange famously handling Bitcoin investments for institutions. On this matter, Coinbase showed heavy selling into limit orders after the dump. He says this was most likely caused by a larger entity cashing out thousands of BTC.

Finally, he says that this is no surprising drop for the crypto realm. The main reason for the drop is just investors hedging their bets and playing it safe. Above all, the drop is seen as normal volatility in the crypto market and price movements should be expected independently of major news. 

Meanwhile, he says traders should keep an eye on various macro events. This includes US equity markets, regulatory developments, the Grayscale Bitcoin fund court ruling, and economic releases. He says all these movements are potential signals for future price movements.

In conclusion, he says the drop in Bitcoin’s price is viewed as part of normal market behavior in the crypto world. While it has triggered reactions from traders, it is essential to consider multiple factors and events that might influence BTC’s future performance. 

He advises crypto enthusiasts to exercise caution and stay informed about market developments to make well-informed decisions. Ultimately, the lesson here remains the same, don’t panic and remain patient and the bull run will arrive when it is time.
