Bearish Indicator: Are Big Players No Longer Interested In Bitcoin?
It looks like the big players may no longer be interested in Bitcoin. As of late, the world’s first and most popular cryptocurrency has exhibited some bearish indicators — at least, on the surface.
It’s no secret that when the big time investors jump ship, it’s often a sign of things to come. Could this be the beginning of another Bitcoin price slump? Let’s take a look at the evidence.
The Signs
There have been several signs that the bigger investors have begun to shift their focus away from Bitcoin. Here are a few of them:
- Price Drop – Bitcoin’s price has been steadily dropping since mid-August. It’s currently trading well below the $12,000 threshold, which has been considered a “stable” level for the cryptocurrency for some time.
- Institutional Investment Drying Up – Recent reports suggest that institutional investors, particularly funds, are pulling out of the cryptocurrency market.
- Big Miner Shutdowns – A number of large-scale Bitcoin miners have been shutting down their operations due to low profitability.
It’s certainly possible that these can all be explained away as coincidences due to the volatility of the cryptocurrency markets. Then again, it could be more than just a coincidence. The signs could be pointing to a larger bearish trend.
What Now?
So, what does all this mean? Well, it’s hard to say for sure. The cryptocurrency markets are unpredictable and often chaotic. Only time will tell.
In the meantime, if you’re a Bitcoin enthusiast, remain optimistic and do your research. Don’t rush any decisions or investments, and remember to always take the long view.
