I’d say the thrills about crypto are once again diminishing, and it’s no surprise. The explosion on Bitcoin from $3.5k to $14k is really unraveling.

Crypto’s Last Stand
I did a post recently in which I stated regarding Bitcoin: ” I suppose it will find stability (if we may use such a lofty term) at about $9500.” Well, we’ve since tumbled to that level, and things are looking pretty shaky.
Take a look at the chart below. The magenta shows the 61.6% Fibonacci level (and also the time when all the HODLer freaks were jumping up and down about how $BTC was heading to a million bucks). It has gotten carpet-bombed since then (green support) and, if we fail this level, we’re on our way to about $7100 (yellow tint).

Bitcoin Is Going To Zero – Or $100,000
If you have followed us since December 2018, then you know we were expecting a major bottom in the cryptocurrency market, and expecting 2019 to be very bullish. In February we wrote an article suggesting an imminent wave two bottom, which proved correct, holding support by $10 on some exchanges.
We suggested then that a third wave would commence, thrusting Bitcoin prices much higher. The only part we got wrong was that our targets were exceeded in the third wave. That happens in strong bull markets. So in May we updated our target for Bitcoin to exceed $10,000 before it completed this rally. But we were 100% right about a bullish 2019 so far.
