That the FTX debacle will affect Bitcoin's price is no FUD. So it is a possibility that the price could indeed fall down all the way to $15,000 because of the effect of FTX's bankruptcy.
This will have a big effect on the market because FTX shutting down doesn't just mean an exchange has died. FTX is one of the top crypto exchanges in the world and it has so many arms. All of them are facing bankruptcy. Since FTX and Alameda are big crypto institutions, it is expected that their fall also means the fall of other crypto companies and institutions that have big amounts of money kept there.
This will even affect those crypto companies that don't have funds in FTX but FTX owes them.
It is indeed FUD. Remember what it stands for.
It already hit $15k and then went back up.
Now exchanges are showing public proof of funds they have.
Finally!!!!
FTX burning to the ground starting to have a reverse effect on crypto -- a good effect.
It is about time.
I know what FUD literally stands for. But that's not what it really means. FUD is more like groundless fear, uncertainty, and doubt. It is associated with baseless rumors, fake news, false allegations especially coming from a competitor, or anything that instills fear, uncertainty, and doubt without basis.
But right now, things are actually happening. These are not mere FUD. These are real tendencies or possibilities based on what's actually going on with some of the largest players in the market. This is enough to shake the whole market.
