my prediction October will be the beginning of the rise again.
you call that volatility, it's expected, maybe $12,000 is just the price we can reach this year, but even though the price will dump, I don't see any reason to panic, instead buying it is the right decision now that the economy is in trouble, bitcoin should still remain as the best store of value for our money.
if it falls, you call it normal, but you are not wise if you will not buy when it fall as eventually it will recover.
We've seen it many times, so we have to get used to it and it should not shaken our faith in bitcoin and crypto in general.
