As analyst suggests, cryptocurrency market may fall even deeper over weekend, as traders look for ways of de-risking portfolios
One of the most famous Bitcoin and crypto critics, gold advocate, economist and fund manager Петир байлдаан gave his new targets for терминалдарда and Etherum for this weekend, predicting a massive plunge to critical prices and recommending avoiding the “buy the dip” strategy.
Schiff’s prediction was based on the most recent sell-off on the cryptocurrency market, with Bitcoin dropping to $27,500 and falling off the consolidation range formed since the beginning of May.
Бул оор дем алыш күндөрү болушу мүмкүн #crypto. #Bitcoin 20 миң долларга чейин түшүүгө даяр окшойт Мен #Ethere 1 миң долларга чейин. Андай болсо, дээрлик 20 миң санариптик токендердин рыноктук капиталы эң жогорку чегинде дээрлик 800 триллион доллардан 3 миллиард доллардан төмөн түшүп кетет. Бул сууну сатып албаңыз. Сиз дагы көп акча жоготосуз.

The correction on the market was fueled by the unexpected inflation numbers, exceeding expectations of both traditional and cryptocurrency markets. Since Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are mostly following the tendencies of risk-on каражаттар, the market had no other choice but to redistribute their funds toward safer options, leaving digital assets aside.
Inflation hedges like gold went the opposite way by rallying by more than 2.5%, which, considering gold’s average volatility as a significant move, especially after facing a 1% loss.

But while Bitcoin and the market in general are losing inflows, Ethereum has its own problems during the 11% plunge. Following the depegging of the stETH and ETH pair on Celcius, the lending and borrowing market may face serious issues if ETH falls below $1,150, as it will launch a massive cascade of liquidations on the market.
The “crypto gold” developed by Paxos Global is leading the cryptocurrency market while trading with a 1% premium to gold CFDs. The difference between the price of two assets is caused by increased demand incoming from cryptocurrency traders that are willing to hedge against inflation and the sell-off on the market.
At press time, Bitcoin trades at $27,487 and is losing 3% in the last 24 hours.
