As Bitcoin has grown tremendously with the support of many supporters today, with various goals.
It will be very difficult to sort out which royal supporters, supporters who still hold bitcoins as prices will fall deeply, as well as supporters who only want to make a profit for a moment, where they will sell bitcoins in panic sales situations.
fuds can have a small effect of bitcoin because of the newbies that will panic sell but still majority of us especially pro investors and hodlers will still hold their precious bitcoins because therfor i can say that fuds arent totally affecting the status of bitcoin. the one that really matters here is the demand and supply, if bitcoin gets more demand the it cant possibly crash but people are decided to switch out to some other coins then the demand will be less so therfore it can cause a crash though it can sill be stop from crashing if someone powerful enough to manipulate it.
