Then there was a rumour in the market that popular crypto exchange Binance has been hacked in an attempt to influence Viacoins price. Securities Exchange Commission SEC issued a statement last week that cryptocurrency platforms should not be called by the name of exchanges since it creates an illusion of regulated activity. Investors are misguided in believing various online trading platforms to be SEC registered and regulated marketplaces when they are not SEC said. Even the Financial Services Agency FSA came out with a statement that domestic cryptocurrency exchanges will be suspended. All these factors lead to nearly 11 percent plunge in Bitcoin price.
This is already old news and I doubt that they have affected the market price drastically. Of course FUD price down the market price but I don't think it has long term effect though. We might drop from as high as almost $10K to $8300 today but it doesn't mean that bitcoin will just die. Also, there are traders who practice shorting because of the market trend so we are struggling for another break out run. But I'm confident that we can recover and hit magical numbers at the end of the year.
Are you living behind of time or what? This is news that eventually ended up as nothing and binance was able to quickly deal with that as soon as possible where the hackers eventually ended up losing their own account anyway.
I am not sure where you are also getting your news from, because as it is now, the only thing happening are exchanges adapting to SEC regulations, such as exchanges like bittrex, and that is not affecting anything and in some cases of countries where it was becoming unbearable, they just had to relocate.
All the factors you have mentioned are just some of the few things that have happened or not even happening, but no one can say categorically if they are the cause or the market is just not ready yet for an uptrend.
