3 reasons why Bitcoin is in a Crab Market



Bitcoin has been moving sideways for a few weeks now. Again and again, investors hoped for a breakthrough above 40,000 US dollars, but it did not come. Furthermore, there was the more frequent threat of a crash well below $ 30,000, but the price moved up again. What are the 3 reasons for Bitcoin's sideways movement?

Reason 1 for Bitcoin's sideways movement: Uncertainty

A big component of Bitcoin's current sideways trend is market uncertainty. In the past few weeks, there have been several bad news for Bitcoin, which first triggered a price decline and then the sideways movement. 

First Elon Musk sharply criticized Bitcoin, then there were far-reaching bans on Bitcoin mining in China. New regulations and bans in particular weakened the bull market again and again in 2021. An uncertainty remains here that discourages many investors, especially institutional investors, from investing in the market. 

Reason 2: firmly established resistances

Fixed upper and lower resistances have established themselves for the Bitcoin price in the past few weeks. Several times it looked like the price could break up. However, the Bitcoin rise repeatedly failed at the $ 40,000 mark. Even when the price briefly exceeded this mark, the resistance set in again and the Bitcoin sideways movement continued.

The same applies to the lower resistance. This first established itself at $ 32,000. Then Bitcoin fell below $ 30,000 for the first time in a few months. In this case, however, a wave of subsequent purchases set in, which drove the price back into the range of $ 35,000. After several touches, the resistance - above and below - remained and the Bitcoin sideways movement continued to solidify. Without major external events, it is very unlikely that these will break anytime soon.

Reason 3 for the Bitcoin sideways movement: The nature of the Bitcoin price trend

As much as Bitcoin is dependent on external factors, the course of the price is repeated over and over again in the historical context. We are seeing bull markets that develop slowly over a few months and then explode. This is followed by price drops and a longer Bitcoin sideways movement until the Bitcoin price turns back into a bear market.

We recognized these patterns as early as 2013 and 2017/2018. These patterns can be traced through technical analyzes and forecasts can be made for the future. It is very likely that we are now in the Bitcoin sideways movement with the transition to the next bear market.

Cardano price forecast – price breaks out! Are we near $1.5 soon?

 In our last Cardano price prediction , we wrote that the price could break out soon. The reason for this was a symmetrical triangle. This triangle was performed after the crash, so we expected the price to break down. But now the course has broken out of the triangle in a bullish manner. But how far could the course rise or what is the goal? Today we will explain to you about the Cardano course ! Cardano price broke out of the triangle and was able to rally to the $1.19 resistance. We tested this resistance, and a short time later the price was sold off. The triangle's target was around $1.23, so we now believe the price has completed the target. As a result, we no longer expect a further increase. Instead, the price could now descend and possibly form new lows. If the price breaks the $1.19 resistance, the price could rally to around $1.5. There is the next resistance where the Cardano price could bounce. If Cardano price fails to break the $1.19 resistance, we would expect the p...

Tesla Beats Sales Expectations - Bitcoin Holdings Remain Flat

  The car manufacturer presented its report for the fourth quarter on Wednesday evening. Tesla exceeded expectations for sales and profits. Bitcoin holdings, meanwhile, remain unchanged. Tesla (TSLA) published the Q4 report for 2021 last night. Overall, the electric car maker recorded a sales increase of 65 percent in this quarter compared to the previous year. In the automotive sector alone, sales rose to 15.97 billion US dollars. In addition, the US company set a new record profit of 5.5 billion US dollars - an increase of 665 percent over the previous year. Analysts previously expected adjusted earnings of $2.36 per Tesla share. With 2.54, the carmaker was able to significantly exceed this value - with positive effects on the TSLA course, which recorded an increase of almost 4 percent. Tesla's bitcoin holdings, meanwhile, remained unchanged. At the end of the fourth quarter, the value remained stable compared to the previous quarter at $1.26 billion. In February 2021, Elon Musk...

Cardano founder doubts Bitcoin's future as world reserve currency

  Cardano's founder doesn't believe Bitcoin has what it takes to become the world's leading currency. Charles Hoskinson stated in a recent interview that he didn't think Bitcoin would become the world reserve currency. According to the founder of Cardano, a cryptocurrency with smart contract features would become the global reserve currency. Hoskinson believes Cardano or Ethereum would become the world reserve currency. A global reserve currency must offer services like smart contracts, metadata standards, and improved throughput that complete enormous transactions per second. According to the Cardano founder , the scarcity of Bitcoin is due to the high cost of production: "If you make paintings, one of which you have to paint by hand and the other by machine, and both look the same and the demand for both is the same, then the effort for one is a thousand times greater than for the other." Hoskinson spoke about Bitcoin's massive energy consumption, addin...
