Many market voices believe that excessive market leverage is the main reason for the violent fluctuations in the cryptocurrency market. Analysts pointed out that the recent rise and fall of Bitcoin has been very fast, which is the result of leverage. However, a drop is also a good thing, which can make the market more stable and solid.

It is worth mentioning that the uncertainty of regulatory policies in various countries also brings risks to the encryption market, but the regulatory policies of various countries are also on the agenda.

According to market news, as the possibility of illegal activities such as money laundering and fraud using cryptocurrencies (virtual assets) such as Bitcoin increases, South Korea will strengthen the monitoring of illegal virtual asset transactions. The South Korean government has decided to crack down on illegal trading of encrypted assets from this month to June. According to the National Affairs Coordinating Office on the 19th, the government made relevant decisions at a virtual asset-related meeting held on the 16th.

When talking about the regulation of cryptocurrencies, Li Bo, deputy governor of the People’s Bank of China, responded that it is necessary to ensure that speculation in such assets does not cause serious financial risks. Li Bo said that encrypted assets are an investment option, not a currency itself, but an alternative investment. Therefore, we believe that encrypted assets should play a role in the future, as an investment tool or an alternative investment. If it is used as an investment tool, many countries including China are also studying, that is, what kind of regulatory environment should exist for such an investment method. Although this regulatory rule is the minimum regulatory rule, there are still regulatory rules.

As the price of Bitcoin fell below $52,000 on April 18, the funding rate for Bitcoin has fallen to its lowest level since September 2020, according to data. Quant trader and analyst Lex Moskovski said it was a sign that fear had returned to the market. According to data from Glassnode, the average bitcoin futures funding rate across all exchanges fell to around -0.03% on Sunday. It is reported that bitcoin futures exchanges use a mechanism called "funding" to achieve market balance. If there are more longs or buyers in the market, the financing rate will rise and vice versa. Therefore, when the funding rate turns negative, it means that most of the market is shorting Bitcoin, which indicates that there is concern in the market.

Analysts in the CoinDesk article said that while the decline looks typical of a bull market pullback, the decline could extend further if the price finds validation below the 50-day moving average.

Although there are voices of concern in the market, there are not a few people who are optimistic about the market outlook.

On-chain data analyst Willy Woo said Bitcoin is currently in a "halfway" state before bursting out with a potential gain of up to 733%. During this bull market cycle, his target price is constantly changing, starting from $300,000. The longer this bull market lasts, the higher the target, which is now on track to surpass $300,000, Woo said.

Billionaire investor and former hedge fund manager Mike Novogratz believes that the price of Bitcoin has been rising continuously and is currently only the tip of the iceberg, as he believes that Bitcoin will continue to rise significantly in the next few years. The amount of growth we're seeing in this space is staggering, and we're just getting started, Novogratz said.

In terms of data indicators, analyst K God pointed out that there was a sharp drop over the weekend, the lowest spot price fell to around 51,000 US dollars, the contract directly fell below 50,000 US dollars, and the market liquidated more than 40 billion yuan. The sound of the end of the bull market came again, and the bull market has ended up?

But looking at the long-term weekly trend of BTC, it can be found that this downward weekly line just stepped back on the long-term 3.618 Fibonacci support line that was broken in the previous period and then quickly rebounded, with a point around 52,000 US dollars. Compared with the previous bull market, in 2017 BTC broke through and stepped back on the long-term 2.618 support line, which was around 3,160 US dollars. After finishing, it rose all the way to the bull top of 20,000 US dollars. Let’s compare the bull market in 2013. BTC also broke through and stepped back on the 1.618 support line, and the point was about Around US$192, it rose all the way to the 13-year bull top of US$1,200. The first two rounds of the bull market all broke through the key positions of the week and ushered in a retreat. After the market wash, the mad bull market in the market outlook started.

At present, BTC has broken through the 3.618 position and has not fallen below again. It is obviously unreasonable to directly judge the end of the bull market. It is more likely to be a strong wash. The weekly line in the picture is also a long-term upward channel, and has broken through the long-term suppression of the middle track. There is a lot of space, and it has been reminded many times in the early stage that a sharp drop in the course of the bull market is an opportunity to buy low in the trend. If you do not break the key support, hold it patiently, and leave the market if it peaks. For now, BTC is also expected to usher in a new trend after finishing this area, so don't be blindly bearish at the moment.
