The Crypto Crash

BITCOIN CRASH.png
May and June were good months for cryptocurrency. Bitcoin surged to unprecedented heights and Ethereum had a larger gain than bitcoin. Then came the publicity about this surge. The big players who were investing, the media personalities telling us to buy and national economies talking about adoption. Then at the end of May we got the first crash and then a recovery. This recovery was huge, Bitcoin and Ethereum hit record highs. Then mid June another crash, at this point the average bitcoin buyer starts to think the market is just stabilizing and he would seem right. Then there was small surge. After this there was a trend of slowly lower prices. Then came another crash and a small surge. Now were crashing again. Some might say this is normal "the market is just stabilizing" but to better understand this trend the economist must study the graphs. They need to the "big picture". The amount of surges and crashes have been increasing in shorter time periods. The surges are becoming smaller and smaller. Except for a few days this past week the whole crypto market has been crashing for a week. Many people have assumed that these good two months have been a bubble. Maybe this bubble has burst. Has there been exploitation of the middle and low class bitcoin investors by then wealthy investors and banks? There is evidence that this could be the truth. Although bitcoin did surge these past two months, the most media exploitation of the trend has been in June when the market was high. Bitcoin became a hot topic. Some of these media personalities are economists themselves and should know that a surge is great for those who bought low but not for those who buy when the market is high. As economists know these markets are volatile. After a surge seen the past two months the possibilities it would surge again are very low. So why all the media cheer leading? It's very possible big money people who are invested decided to promote through the media this narrative. In other words it's a billionaire pump. Now that the bitcoin ignorant have invested in the market it looks like the dump has started.

We may experience crashes in the short term , but imagine what the prices will be like 5-10 years from now. WAY higher than they are today.

i agree, all of our currencies that we invested in a couple months ago, could potentially make us rich in the future, imagine if this crypto market cap reaches 10 trillion!!!

My thoughts exactly. Crypto currencies are paving the way to the future. Things are changing dramatically fast.

the surge of the past two months isn't something common in bitcoin history. Yes its volatile but this surge is bizzare. Im just saying don't expect another surge again.

I think these surges are caused by the huge attention it brings to new crypto/bitcoin investers. Most of these last surge, it corrects a bit and then makes a new high.

Theres some controversy about Jihan Wu claiming that they know Satoshi. Charlie Lee founder of litecoin has been called Satoshi before although he says hes not.

There is no history for your view. Bitcoin is unpredictable. A surge like these past two months has never happened before.

Beautiful post
