In the next few weeks/months if bitcoin does break the $3k support level, a lot of TA has shown that there is a lack of support below that level until around $1k. I personally don't think that is accurate in terms of bitcoin crashing down that fiercely in such a short period of time, but it could definitely spark a round of panic dumping as people capitulate within the market.
I guess this only affects traders, as panic dumping is really in the context of the short term.
But in the long run, it doesn't really affect how bitcoin technology is being adopted, used, and accepted globally. Price volatility in the short term shouldn't dictate the long term mechanisms and the fundamentals of bitcoin at all. It's the reason why long term holders should not be worried whatsoever, even if BTC continued to depreciate. All they should be worried about is whether accumulating further is within their means or not.
