Reading all your replies i found one comment which really makes sense, which is muslims do have to to pay zakat(charity) which is 2.5% of their annual earning. Let’s think an example for a sec, if a person(whale)has 1000 btc he will have to pay 25 btc!!

Upto my thinking this is a strong case Smiley

Are mulims in crypto space selling and taking their money out from crypto space to buy gifts for their loved ones causing market down?

I am a muslims but I think muslims is have not the correlation with Bitcoin price. price down is because Demand-supply and another economics factors.

Seems pretty highly unlikely that this would have enough of an impact on the market at this point.

People also said similar things about East Asians and the lunar new year. That they were selling for the same reasons you mentioned. But it really seems quite far fetched in my opinion.

How that even make sense? As much as I know, people invest more during celebrations. What we saw last year after Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year, according to my point of view, people rather love to invest in more during such period. Muslims did have their Eid last year as well. But last year, this time period was rather bullish. So assuming anything of this sort is a stupidity as market is experiencing this downtrend for a long time now. It started all back in February.

I dont know, maybe if you can give the exact number of how many muslims who have only bitcoin in their pocket and have no cash to prepare for eid, then maybe we can calculate the percentage of the muslims effect on bitcoin prices.

Nah, im just kidding. The price has nothing to do with big day of any religion. It is because the market's law.

No, definitely not. FYI, the recent hack in Korean Exchange, regulatory concerns, the investigations of four major crypto exchanges on alleged price manipulations, the low trades, the so-called short sellers in trading exchanges, criticism from the world's established financial industry, and so on are sensible reasons behind the fall of BTC prices.

I do not think that it has anything to do with bitcoin prices.Their population in the world is quite high but there are very less investors.

If more Muslim are into trading cryptocurrency then I could say yes the market is down due to the muslim celebration because either majority won't be trading or most will be converting their crypro into cash for gifts and enjoyment

Nah...the Muslim celebration has nothing to do with it. I personally don't think that religion celebration mostly has anything to do with cryptocurrency. Many people may be thinking that any holiday can affect the cryptocurrency but it doesn't work that way. Most times, its an event that mist occur to affect the price of cryptocurrency by pulling it down.

No, it`s not the reason. At December there are Christmas holidays and if I remember good, bitcoin price was at the highest level.
And for sure, it wasn`t because of Christmas.

well. the fairest answer to this question is MAYBE.
Yes, some of Muslims usually spending more money at the end of Ramadan to celebrate Ied Mubarak. and maybe some of money they invested in crypto will withdraw for the sake of Ied Mubarak, and yes market capitalization for BTC is falling at the 9th June 2018.

but, remember that we Muslims are spending money into the market.
lest see this Ied Mubarak as an annual economic event worldwide.

People nowadays are always thinking and predicting what are those possibilities that some of the crypto makes them down  Grin
Are muslims do really affect the crypto market ?  Grin Are all these investors that makes the market changes? Come to think of it, there are bad and fake news that affect the market, there are scammers and because of these some of the investors are making their path for what is the best. Last year on December, a lot of investor sell their bitcoins - and the price or value doubled  Cheesy

Maybe you are not calm. Prices up and down are normal in the market. Without having to blame any religion and remember everyone can buy when the price goes down. Hopefully you are more wise in seeing the market situation.

I think all Muslims in the world, wanting to need fiat money that is used for charity and sharing pleasure, as it is when Christmas, all crypto has dropped dramatically and immediately bounced quickly

I dont think there is any logic behind this. I have muslim friends and they are trading even in Ramadan season. On the contrary, Crypto market is ready to rise back and a small green bar may get some good volumes in the market right now.

The muslims giving gifts has no relation with the crashing of Bitcoin price. If you are thinking they need to give million dollar prizes then trust they have enough money to buy hundred of these, they need not to sell bitcoin in order to buy gifts.

I think it could happen because of the habit in every day of the world's big day, the market will tend to go down.
Moreover, the big day that the population has many followers in this part of the world.

I don't think there is a correlation between a religious festival and the rise or fall of a cryptocurrency assets. If the Muslim are using cryptocurrency as a payment which they won't be able to use again,you can then assign their festival to the downsized of the market.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

OP's comparison reminds me of those people who are always looking for the simplest, nonsensical explanation.
BTC lost value in December? - People are selling to buy Christmas presents.
BTC gained value in December? - People are buying to add BTC to their presents.
Can we really get more ridiculous than this?
