people mention a supposed ban on personal wallets but I can't find any recent news about it.
The news broke in July:
A blow to Bitcoin? Europe plans to ban anonymous crypto wallets.
So, I don't know what the **** is going on.
I don't think that this is the trigger. No recent developments on this particular news, and if it is indeed the cause of the downtrend, it would have had affected bitcoin as early as when the news circulated. It wouldn't make sense for a news to affect the market months after it was announced, most especially if there were no active updates on the said event/news that was broadcasted
