Bitcoin price rejection at $39K and mounting regulatory concerns tank the market again
Volatility and choppy price action continued to dominate the cryptocurrency market on March 7 and news that United States President Joe Biden plans to sign an executive order later this week that will outline the government's strategy for cryptocurrencies was added to the list of factors weighing down crypto prices.
Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView shows that Bitcoin (BTC) bulls were thwarted in an attempt to regain support at $40,000 on Monday as revelations about the upcoming executive order and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine tanked the market and dropped BTC to a low of $37,155.
Here’s what several analysts in the market are saying about the outlook for BTC and whether or not crypto traders should prepare for an extended bear market.
A bearish perspective for the current price action was outlined by crypto trader and pseudonymous Twitter user ‘Crypto Tony’, who posted the following chart outlining the potential for a capitulation into the low $20,000s for BTC if the current support levels break down.
