I guess this could be the problem; Bitcoin likes to take the path of maximum pain for speculators. In 2023 this was continued upside, as many took profits too early and others got liquidated shorting the price. Now the path of maximum pain would be a return to $30K support imo, or lower, now that many speculators still anticipate higher levels since the ETFs have launched. Personally I'd be happy to see $30K again within the next few months, followed by healthy consolidation around $40K leading into and after the halving. It seems like much of the market was under the impression that Bitocin was in a "never-ending" uptrend, or new bull market, but so far in it's history this has never been a thing prior to halving. Corrections always occur eventually, and when they do and the trend shifts from bullish to bearish, they are usually quite severe.
