Bitcoin Price Stumbles Despite Strong Support Factors

Bitcoin Price Dips Below $80K: What’s Next?

Bitcoin Price– Bitcoin’s price has left investors puzzled, as it dropped below $84,000 despite several positive developments in the crypto space. With bullish factors emerging over the past week, analysts had high expectations, but Bitcoin’s price movement has fallen short of these predictions.

Currently trading at $80,909, Bitcoin has seen a more than 6% decline in the past 24 hours. Over the past week, it has dropped 3.37%, accompanied by a 53% decrease in trading volumes. Even though the price is sliding, Bitcoin whales are still actively accumulating. In just three days, they added more than 22,000 BTC to their holdings.

The Unexpected Price Decline

Despite a week filled with optimistic news, such as the signing of an executive order for a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, a Crypto Summit at the White House, and positive statements from the OCC, Bitcoin’s price continues to fall. Analysts are now speculating that it could dip below $80K.

On March 7, former President Trump signed an executive order, deciding to use seized Bitcoin rather than purchasing additional BTC from the market. This announcement led to a sudden drop of over 6%, with Bitcoin falling from $90,400 to $84,979. QCP Capital stated, “The knee-jerk reaction lower likely stems from the realization that no actual budget has been allocated for BTC purchases in the near term.”

However, QCP Capital also pointed out that the long-term outlook remains positive. The risk of random Silkroad BTC sales affecting the market is now gone, and the U.S. government has reaffirmed its long-term crypto strategy.
