Welcome to bitcoin
The drop follows three straight days of price increases for bitcoin as the price from $2000 to $2800, which was an all-time high per coin. In financial markets, it is not uncommon to see corrections like this after relatively large gains over a short period of time, which really does bring a touch of sanity to a frenzied market. That the decrease was not more substantial, given what has overall been a very large rise, should give investors comfort.
Past Volatility
bitcoin has been historically famous for its massive volatility, with its price declining by several orders of magnitude in just the space of minutes. In the price dropped by almost 50% from $13.50 down to just $7 in the period of 7 hours. However, the coin is also famous for its sudden gains too, as bitcoin prices began hitting $80 dollars.
Another example is the 2013 crash, often attributed to the downfall of the infamous Japanese based exchange,, when the site went down it took many Investors coins with it. bitcoin took its time recovering, and cryptocurrency as a whole entered a bear market. bitcoin has made slow and steady gains since 2015, however, it is only since March that the gains have started to rise at a disproportionately increased rate.
It comes as no surprise, that in the wake of such massive gains, that bitcoin fever seems to have struck again.
Still Bullish
With daily candles mainly Green, all signs still point to the coin remaining Bullish and, at the current time of this writing, it has since started climbing back towards $2,550.
