Ravi Kumar, Market Analyst at AlexaBlockchain, said:
“A correction in the market is always anticipated after a sharp rally. So, this price drop is not surprising for me. Cryptocurrency market has become more credible now and I anticipate a big all time highs in the next 2-3 months.”
Even after this drop, Bitcoin has more than doubled this year and looks strongly moving towards US$20,000. Crypto believers tout growing interest by retail investors, institutions and even billionaires, as well as the search for a hedge against dollar weakness, as reasons why the boom can last.
