    Bitcoin Price Tanks Below $40K Again, Is This A Dip Or The End?

    Story Highlights
    • Bitcoin price experienced a severe crash, something like the 2018 and 2020, yet at a larger scale, now in 2021

    • The price despite a recovery in a short timeframe, slumped back below, showcasing the possibilities of drowning at higher extent

    • Yet some believe that BTC will rebound, no matter it may consume more time, yet $100K is still an achievable target

    Bitcoin Market Cap Down By $500M

    The Bitcoin price rally was one of the most monstrous rallies of the time as the price surged quickly from $10K to above $60K. However, many dumps were also a part of the rally, yet the bullish momentum was never flipped.

    In the recent crash, BTC price dropped almost 30% and previously, the price had experienced a 15% crash due to some negative FUD. Bitcoin, which was once a trillion dollar asset, has now lost nearly $500 million market capitalization since the recent crash. 

    Moreover, the market dominance is also slashing day by day which stands at 44.7% at the press time, paving way for the other altcoins to grow. Currently, the BTC price, which had regained the lost position above $40K, has slided down yet again. And hence it might be a matter of concern as if the daily close is below $40K, then the probability of revisiting lower levels increases. 

    Yet during the recent crash, the trading volume and the social volume had spiked like never before. Santiment, an on-chain analytic platform cautions to ‘keep an eye on hype dying down’ as the price consolidates.

    This may be considered as one of the bullish indicators as the market sentiments appear to be positive. And hence, the BTC price may surge, recovering the losses, slowly yet steadily.

    ALT/BTC Pairs May Suffer

    As the dip in the BTC price caused more regression in the crypto space as more alts tend to follow. Therefore despite the price of various altcoins initiating with recovery, yet they may suffer a pullback when paired with BTC.

    However, amid the speculated ongoing Altseason 2021, many altcoins smashed the peak which were beyond the expectations. And since the recent crash, most of them are a minimum of 40% away from their highs.

    Whether the market suffered a healthy correction or a steep crash is hard to say, yet currently the market may experience a ‘seller exhaustion phase’.

    As the market is providing immense opportunity for accumulating at the dip, the panic sellers may also get exhausted at certain point. Therefore, flipping the bears, the bulls may regain the power to uplift bitcoin price. Moreover, the fundamentals are the same before and after the steep free-fall and hence a proper reciprocation with BTC price is imminent.
