Why is the Crypto Market Crashing?

In the last week, Bitcoin is down 11%, Ethereum down 9%, the Fear and Greed Index has moved to a state of Fear (39) and it's red across the board...

What's happening to the crypto market?

It started with the news that China's Evergrande filed for bankruptcy and then shortly after, an article that sent the market further down, published by the Wall Street Journal, stated that SpaceX had sold all of their $373 million dollars worth of Bitcoin.

If that wasn't bad enough, the drop in the price of Bitcoin caused a liquidation of over $1 billion worth of leveraged positions, the biggest liquidation so far this year.

According to CoinGlass data, a total of 176,752 traders got liquidated.

...And that's all within the last 24 hours!

But don't let this type of news scare you...unless you are a day trader.

The Emotional Landscape of the Crypto Markets

The cryptocurrency market is highly volatile and susceptible to FUD and FOMO. The story that SpaceX sold all their Bitcoin has yet to even be verified.

In a recent article, I discuss the emotional landscape of the crypto markets, where I talk about the Bandwagon Effect and the Ripple Effect of Collective Emotion - something only made possible with the almost instantaneous speed of news over the internet.

If you would have followed the news that the crypto market is crashing, then you would have also likely missed the news of some of the greatest gains that happened this week.

Some of the Greatest Crypto Gains Happened This Week!

While the masses are worried about whether Elon sold all his Bitcoin or not, some of the biggest gains also happened in the crypto market this week.

Sei (SEI) just recently listed, is now ranked in the top 100 and saw gains of over 3000% over the past few days.

And a micro-cap, AI Chatbot project called PAAL gained +66,769% in the last 30 days.

These two projects may be anomalies in an otherwise sea of red, however during a bull run, these types of gains are commonplace in the micro-caps.

A massive bull run is coming and is timed to the Bitcoin halving cycle (April 2024). Most will miss it, but hopefully, you won't.

During the run-up to the next bull run, we are accumulating and if you want to follow us to see what we are buying, you'll need to become a member.

Join Us - As We Accumulate

At the end of August, we will release our latest Altcoin pick. If you would like to know what we are buying, you are more than welcome to join us as we share our monthly Altcoin picks in preparation for the next bull run - You just need to become a member.
