has it taken a downward path? did it climb too fast? is this a correction or a change in trend?
The price may simply be consolidating after a period of intense growth, with over-the-counter trader Charlie Shrem reporting that he believes this to be the case.
Shrem pointed to bitcoin's long-term value projections as evidence the market isn't "satisfied" even with the current price observed today. (source: coindesk.com)
My confidence in Bitcoin is not shaken at all, this consolidation will build steam for the next push. Whatever happens with Bitcoin's price, always make sure you have at least 10 Bitcoins stashed away.
FTFY

August, September might see a huge sway in favor of the btc so its looking bullish. In my own point of view, even if i buy btc's worth $10k or $20k that will still be a very good investment as i expect btc prices to shoot up uncontrollably perhaps hundreds of times from what it is valued right now. In 2009 i was offered 50k pre-mined btc's for $50 and i turned it down sighting it as a hacker scam. Had i listened to the guy and bought those btc's for 50 bucks it would have been a totally different story today. lolz

For now. bitcoin can't be manipulated by the feds, that's its saving grace...but its still a FIAT. Ask someone in collapsing Venezuela right not if they can use bitcoin to feed their family. On the other hand, there are tons of news reports of people bartering with gold and silver to survive in that country right now. I'll stick with what has stood the test of time thanks. :)

Bitcoin was rising too fast (like in classical model of bublle) and now is the time to back to its mean.
And then Bitcoin will rise and break level 2000$ (because of strong support of rising popularity and eliminating obstacles to trade Bitcoin in global markets).

Bitfinex started to resume fiat withdrawals (for requests of $50,000 or greater) earlier today, and it should not be viewed as coincidence the price of Bitcoin fell as a result of it.
Speculators were willing to pay risk premiums in the form of ever higher Bitcoin prices (much like when Mt GOX was having issues with fiat transfers), just to move it off Bitfinex to other exchanges without liquidity issues.
Now that larger withdrawals of $50,000 or greater are being processed, demand is subsiding and risk premiums are no longer being paid. Consequently, the Bitcoin bubble should recede to more "normal " levels.

Plausible. More correlating data would help support the Bitfinex angle.
Although, the pullback has already bounced back as I am writing this.

Clif High stated a pullback as it approaches 1900, all time high for gold I think. Then it would be a race to 2300 between gold and Bitcoin. By Feb 2018 BTC COULD BE AS HIGH AS 13000 per Clif! Keep buying BTC and silver, because we're headed for a major market correction!
