Ethereum and Bitcoin Prices Are Tanking. Here's Why One Expert ... (NextAdvisor)

Bitcoin just hit its lowest point since July 2021. Here's how low one expert thinks it could go, and what investors should know.

Increased institutional adoption of crypto has made its market more intertwined with the stock market, which in turn, has been largely impacted by the war in Ukraine, surging inflation, and the Fed’s tightening monetary policy, experts say. Bitcoin’s big drop Monday is just the latest reminder for investors that crypto assets come with extra risk and volatility, especially in times of economic and political uncertainty like we’re in now. Bitcoin’s high point of the year so far remains in the earliest days of January, when it nearly hit $48,000. It’s been a shaky start to the week for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, largely driven by ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty. A correlation of one means that they move equally one to the other.” And one expert warns bitcoin could drop even further, below $30,000 for the first time since July 2021.

Bitcoin tumbles below $27000 for first time since December 2020 as ... (CNBC)

Bitcoin slumped below $27000 Thursday for the first time in over 16 months as cryptocurrency markets extended their losses.

Economists have long feared that tether may not have the required amount of reserves to bolster its dollar peg in the event of mass withdrawals. Adding to investors' fears Thursday was a drop in the value of tether, the world's biggest stablecoin. Ether, the second-biggest digital currency, tanked to as low as $1,789 per coin. Digital currency investors often turn to them for safety in times of volatility in the markets. That's a risky gamble, not least because bitcoin is itself an incredibly volatile asset. That marks the first time bitcoin has sunk below the $27,000 level since Dec. 30, 2020.

3 reasons why bears aim to pin Bitcoin below $30K for this week's ... (Cointelegraph)

BTC price is in a freefall and data suggests bears plan to keep the price below $30000 until the May 13 options expiry.

The number of options contracts available on May 13 for call (bull) and put (bear) instruments varies, depending on the expiry price. Bitcoin bears need to hold the price below $30,000 on May 13 to secure a $260 million profit. With this said, bears have greater odds of suppressing BTC below $30,000 before the May 13 options expiry. If Bitcoin's price remains below $30,000 at 8:00 am UTC on May 13, only $1 million worth of those call (buy) options will be available. Nubank, the largest digital bank in Brazil and Latin America, also announced that it would allocate roughly 1% of its net assets to Bitcoin. Shopify (SHOP), one of the largest Canadian e-commerce companies also saw its stock plunge by 28%.

Bitcoin (BTC) Steadies in the Wake of the Terra LUNA Fallout (FX Empire)

Stablecoin woes hit the crypto markets once more on Thursday. A Tether recovery to $0.99 restored confidence and a bitcoin recovery from $25836.

Looking at the EMAs and the 4-hourly candlestick chart (below), it is a bearish signal. A fall through the pivot would test the First Major Support Level at $26,475. The Second Major Support Level sits at $24,027. The Third Major Resistance Level sits at $36,779. On Monday, the market cap had hit a current week high of $1,569 billion before the TerraUSD and Terra LUNA implosion. Late in the day, bitcoin retested resistance at $30,000 before easing back.

Bitcoin falls out of its macro range as BTC price reflects fresh woes for stablecoins, including Tether.

Data from on-chain monitoring resource Coinglass showed that for Bitcoin and altcoins combined, losses topped $1.2 billion in the 24 hours at the time of writing. All you have to do is pay attention to the markets when they are ultra bearish,” popular trader Rekt Capital argued. The extent of the losses was reflected in market liquidations. At the time of writing, USDT/USD was under $0.99 on major exchanges. LUNA, Terra’s in-house token, had all but capitulated in value at the time of writing, trading at around $0.22. At the start of May, LUNA/USD traded at $80. At the time of writing, the pair circled $26,700 on Bitstamp, marking its lowest since Dec. 28, 2020.
