Deteriorating Market Conditions and Massive Selling by Major Bitcoin Holders Could Push Price Lower Than $80K, According to Financial Expert
Here Comes the Storm Again:
It's been a rollercoaster two months for Bitcoin, with the price plummeting below $75,000 due to intense selling pressure. This'n'such happened during the darkest times of the global trade war sparked by, you guessed it, Trump.
But things ain't all doom and gloom. The trade war's easing up, with the US makin' deals left, right, and center, even with the old enemy, China. But now, we got another storm brewin', and it ain't good news.
Operation Rising Lion, Israel's latest move, targeted over a hundred strategic military and nuclear sites in Iran. And oh boy, this one's ugly. Latest reports suggest the death toll's gettin' close to a hundred, with senior commanders and scientists among the casualties, and over 300 injured.
Iran didn't take this lying down, launching Operation Vow of Truth 3, bombardin' central Israel, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and some northern targets with missiles. The casualties? At least three dead, and dozens injured.
Israel calls it "preemptive," aiming to disrupt Iran's nuclear progress as Iran refuses to sign a deal. But Iran sees it as a direct attack on its sovereignty. Trump's all for it.
The Impact on Bitcoin
Just like the trade war, Bitcoin reacted instantly to Israel's attack. Within hours, its price plummets from a daily high of $108,500 to under $103,000. It's recovered some ground and is now traded at around $105,000, but uncertainty lingers. The situation could escalate, leading to further chaos.
Ali Martinez, a well-known crypto analyst, has a warning for Bitcoin. It needs to stay within a six-digit price territory, or it risks falling back to under $80,000.
Whether the Wolf is Coming or Going
Whales, those big BTC investors, have shown signs of worry. Earlier this week, some of 'em started sellin' small parts of their holdings, even before the attacks happened. And after the first strike, some of the biggest whales, those with over 1,000 BTC, started "trimming" their positions. If this trend continues, it could not only intensify selling pressure on Bitcoin but could also be mirrored by smaller investors.
