1. China Bank Association
From my research, I was able to understand that the price of BTC fell by 29% on Wednesday after China Banking Association warned its banks of the risks associated with digital currencies and placed a ban on cryptocurrency, which this action resulted in a sharp fall in the price of BTC and also the fall in other altcoins like etheruem, Litecoin, and Dogecoin e.t.c
2. Elon Musk
From my research, I was also made to understand that Elon Musk is also the reason for the sudden fall in the price of BTC, but if in case you don't understand why people are saying so, let me break it down for you. if you could remember, Elon Musk, who happens to be the richest man in the world, and also the CEO of Tesla (A company that produces electric cars) back then in February 2021 made an announcement to have invested $1.5 billion in Bitcoin, and that Tesla will start accepting bitcoin as payment for his electric cars, of which this action of his skyrocket the price of bitcoin back then in February to almost $63,000 per Bitcoin, and just recently, that same Elon musk have come up this May to say his company Tesla will stop accepting bitcoin as payment for its electric cars, reason been because of the volatility of its nature causing its price to rise and fall, of which this very action of his is the reason for the sudden fall in the price of bitcoin.
But, no matter what, whether Elon Musk accepts our bitcoin or not, for the fact that bitcoin has been in existence since 2009 till today, it will surely prevail.👍👍👍👍👍
So, whether Elon accepts bitcoin or not, there are still some big companies that accept bitcoin or planning to accept bitcoin. And here they are:
1. Overstock.com accept bitcoin as payment for it's goods.
2. MasterCard has said it will soon start accepting bitcoin on its network, and
3. BNY Mellon, the oldest bank in the US said back then in Feb, that it will soon include bitcoin in the service it provides for its clients.
So, that means, our bitcoin must surely prevail, no matter the storms and thunder it faces today.
So, Thank you... thank you... and thank you so much for finding out time to read my research findings...
I remain your humbled junior member in this forum bitcointalk... God bless you all
You are over thinking it. Bitcoin rises and falls sometimes because it is what it is. When profit taking comes in there is a sell-off. 60k was a perceived top and people wanted to book some profits. Same on the rise. When it's perceived as undervalued it has a perpencity to rise. So.etimes nothing more to it than that
