Bitcoin is experiencing significant fluctuations as it grapples with a recent downturn, with the cryptocurrency dropping by nearly 6% in just the past 24 hours.
Currently trading at around $92,125, Bitcoin has struggled to recover from an intraday low of $91,583. This downturn comes in the wake of Bitcoin’s brief peak just below $100,000 last week, when it reached a new all-time high.
The recent drop in Bitcoin’s price has been attributed to a combination of selling pressure, long-position liquidations, and broader market dynamics. The overall cryptocurrency market has also seen declines, with the dollar index rising by 0.18% as a result of new tariff announcements by US President-elect Donald Trump.
Looking ahead, analysts remain cautiously optimistic. Tony Sycamore, an IG Australia Market Analyst, suggested that this pullback offers a healthy correction for Bitcoin, which had become overbought recently.
Meanwhile, 10x Research founder Markus Thielen maintains a bullish outlook, predicting that Bitcoin will reach $100,000 or more within the next few weeks.
Robert Kiyosaki also weighed in, forecasting a future price of $500,000 based on AI predictions.
