Why is there such a downturn in the market? The South Korean market is the cause or the other reason?

it is a routine down trend in the market and people are selling their coins by fear that market is going down and the intelligent people are taking benefit of their foolishness and collecting the same on a low rate.

Some people around me are selling. Some are also buying. The current market is going down. Can the cause of this decline be analyzed? The biggest reason I know at present is South Korea's market monitoring.

The reason for the decline in the market is the most bonal - after a good growth, a good correction takes place. This is the standard situation for the crypto currency market. So do not worry. Soon everything will grow again in value.

I Saw in the news the Korea is shutting their bitcoins. This could be the reason why BTC prices are experiencing a dump, As we all know Korea also is a Major player with cryptocurrency. Because of this people are panicking to sell their coins before it is too late. but for me it is an opportunity to buy more coins while prices are down as I still see a bright future for cryptocurrency.

It is just one more of the BTC cycles... nothing different from what has happened before and nothing different from what will happen in a year. People have the idea that they just have to buy bitcoin and wait, and those times are over.

The bull run has been so long, but China intends to further regulate the encryption money market, which could be the trigger for a sharp fall.

Many people will give you reasons but the fact of the matter is it is probably a combination of them all and it is something that happens on a yearly basis. It could just be a way of the blockchain weining out those who do not truly believe in the technology.

This downtrend had many reason behind it, Do we really think that it is because of the banning of bitcoin in South Korea alone, There are still South Koreans that I think still using bitcoin but they are selling it to other countries right now or they are buying bitcoin in other countries now because the transaction is ban in their country, Well Maybe in my opinion there are manipulators that are doing this and wants to buy cheaper bitcoin right now.

South Korea has nothing to do with the drop.
Nobody can tell you the exact reason of the downtrend, but we can speculate that the drop was caused by a combination of: news/headlines filled with FUD articles, panic sell, china fud, a lot of rumours in social media = FUD, a correction in the market after the bull run, the bitconnect scam, whale groups manipulating the market, etc etc.
Just another day in the wild west.

Everyone blame some reason in Bitcoin dumping. I think main problem is Bitcoin circulation is reduce in the crypto market. This also create a issues in market and trading also banned in Korea and China. These both  problems are created in current market. But everything should be normal in future. This is one kind of reason in down in the crypto market.


Title: Re: What is the cause of the market downturn?
Post by: Nukleo on January 17, 2018, 02:26:38 PM
The reasons for the fall are seasonal, fundamental factors. This is nothing more than trying to skillfully manipulate the market and try to lower the price of Bitcoin as low as possible, in order to purchase at a more favorable price before the upcoming jump.

You saw the wrong news I guess. South Korea is restricting Bitcoin (and cryptocurrency) but we have known it for many months. And the government keeps clarifying that this isn't a ban, just a regulatory move. I think they are doing what they can to protect their citizens, and soon will follow in the footsteps of Japan. There was a lot of bad news there due to scammers last year. So crypto has a bad name there. Hacks, scams, fake Bitcoin forks.

People panic as usual. That let's us buy in cheap, so no complaints.

To be honest, I have mixed emotions right now. There's a part of me that I'm totally scared and hit the "Dump" button, but there's another part of me that says "Hold on, believe it will recover". It's not the first time that we are experiencing like this.

Last December, we're also experiencing a major downfall due to holidays. From an all-time high of $20k, it even dropped to $10k. However, it recovered so quickly and stabilizes between $15k to $17k.

Now it trades below $10k, so a lot of newbies are being manipulated once again by whales to dump their coins/tokens, to make room for them to rebuy and increase their portfolio in that specific asset.

Also, expect another crash when the Lunar New Year comes February 16. There will be lots of dumpers to celebrate the Chinese New Year, so we will prepare for that too.

Rumours to ban crypto trading in China and South Korea. Then we have the bitconnect major scam. Moreover, there are a lot of people who bought from very low levels and are staying on huge profits, so when there is a major sell off, some people are capitalising on their gains. Last, but not least some of the major exchanges have currently suspended all new registration, so there is no fresh money coming in.

Now, I just thinking and feeling like a fool when talking that bitcoin prices down just due to China and Korea will ban bitcoin, which I feel it wouldn't be possible because Bitcoin is not centred by the country. Despite if they will ban bitcoin, they just can be limited to local exchanges only, and that can certainly be overcome by various ways to discover new bitcoin trading. Well, I just think there are manipulators that have a lot of bitcoin and they sell it and buy again when the price low.

The China and Korea news play a part in this price decrease. The market cap decrease from 800m to 500m. Some people are panic selling, there is scam coin going on. But next month, everyone will forget about what happened and the bull continue.

Exactly, China already shut down exchanges last year. and also Korea just want Exchanges to do strict KYC procedure. The news are exaggerated too much since the people with big money  want to buy coins as low as possible.

cause alot people don't read, or if they do read, they don't do research and purely believe.

I believe tons of the FUD comes from Korea exchange ban and China Mining Ban.
I believe Korea is not banning any legit exchange but those who did not comply with them.

Next, one of the main reason i believe it drops is because of Price correction. However, i believe its a healthy dip there

I think it should be the forthcoming policy of the Chinese government that affected the market price.
Never, never ignore China's influence.
But no way, I have a lot of losses, so I had to hold.
Hope it rise up soon.

The bad news from the cryptocurrency market from China and South Korea is puzzling investors who are puzzled by the fact that they have sold their coin at extremely low prices. I believe everything will be stable in the future and your job is to wait for the market to go up. At the moment, it is necessary to study more about this market.

Seems to me the "scare" has multiple reasons mainly the South Korean and Chinese gov't news as well as a frenzy of sell-off by scared people who did not HODL.

When the market experiences a dip, it get's worse when a good number of people world wide sell in fear.

Things look to be getting back on track now and it will go back slowly to where it was and hopefully grow even higher. The total Market cap will hopefully grow more in 2018.

It could just been a mixture of FUD, people taking profit, and people cutting losses. People who went into crypto a month ago are still up so they probably didn't care about this drop.

FUD,China banning crypto miners,South Korea follows by banning Bitcoin local and foreign exchanges are just some of the negative news affecting the downtrend of Bitcoin,so people who invested on coins panic,selling their holdings and investment to minimize their losses or saved what is left of the price,with this happenings oversupply occurs.Let's just hope that the slump is over,and Bitcoin start rebounding back from all the losses that happen,at the moment Bitcoin price is now at 11K$+ from a very low of 10K$+ yesterday a good sign to start our day.

It isn't sudden. The market has been drifting down since the Dec 6th highs. A lot of transactions that were stuck in the mempool finally hit the exchanges and people sold. Day traders also sold and then you had a bunch of stop losses being triggered which sent the market down further. That's all.

1) Chinese New Year approaching
2) Traders and whales paying taxes
3) Traders and whales who waited until after Jan 1 to pull out funds
4) Whales manipulating low prices to allow Wall Street money to flow in (think bonus season)
5) Huge FUD week (South Korea, China, France)
6) Market was ready for another (natural) correction - the % increase we were seeing was unsustainable.

or maybe the bitcoin price going down also altcoins will follow maybe these could be a correction or movement manipulation of whales holder of bitcoin.
or maybe many of investors day traders pulling out and selling all their bitcoin like what happens if there will be a christmas or something.

Why is there such a downturn in the market? The South Korean market is the cause or the other reason?
in fact there is no strong cause for the market price decline, because it is a reasonable activity that is a big and meticulous correction of previous changes and price increases, all changing just like water continues to flow into the valley or to the steep slopes which then water it increases in volume and produces a great boost, and ultimately can not be dammed when the valley is filled with water it will flow more swiftly to the other place. meaning that the market price decline is not a real drop, but it goes down to pump up a larger and more profitable price volumes.
but the decline is underpinned by a decrease in support from users and investors in supplying the price-turning energy of the market so that it stops completely. supposing that there is no more water supply that can be discharged.

Rumors and fake news are the real cause for the price fall of all crypto currency because bitcoin haters convey the actual news in a wrong way then the newbie investors are backing up their investment by selling them which is the cause for fall.So investors need to hold the coins no need to worry about the temporary fall because the history taught us it will surely recover.

In my opinion and based on others speculation, I came up with an answer that it is because of chinese. We all know that they own huge part or amount of bitcoin. This february they have a chinese new year which I think causes bitcoin to drop because they needed the money for that event. I am still on search for more proof of this but if you on to the old charts you will see that the trend is the same that every february bitcoin usually drops its value.

Market downturn is somehow to balance the market trend. Its somehow a cliche but its the way of life. Every buying and selling always affect the market. Massive selling may greatly affect the downturn. Nevertheless, every selling increases the supply that gives opportunity for buyers that makes the balance in the market.

This topic may correspond to reality and at any time that the market is in decline. In relation to the issue of the topic the great reason for the slowdown of the market is very simple, negative speculation that influences beginning investors to giants and although it may seem strange what moves the market are not the charts or numbers, what moves the market is the emotion.

Blocking crypto in other countries causing market downturn. Maybe also because of banning the ban on facebook and so forth. It all causes the decline in market value. Korean even china does not negate this virtual currency.

Why is there such a downturn in the market? The South Korean market is the cause or the other reason?



after south korean market came again ban from india, then in followed by facebook, google and now twitter. well, now it has come in all over the ban from internet giant. I think what happens to this ban will have a big impact on the market slump. but one thing that will happen after this passes. bitcoin and other crypto will grow back. let's wait what will happen later.

Cryptocurrency market really down.... Yes. Supply is possibly more than Demand thus the downturn. People are supplying (selling) out of  fear possibly because of some regulation news about cryptocurrency. This time of dip is indeed a good time to buy.....which intelligent investors are doing.

I am suspecting the Easter holiday to be a key factor affecting the crypto market recently, apart from the various bad news we heard about facebook, twitter and google ads bans. When i checked CMC just now it is turning green all the way, nobody can tell what will happen the next minute because there are prices suppressors every where around us.

There are many reasons for the obtained downtrend. Global international news from Google, China, India and etc.
Also  statements of the governments of some states about the legalization of cryptomarket (and, as a consequence, the establishment of control over it, which can lead to centralization) acting on prices.

"downturn" are everywhere, even not include crypto. most of all projects are facing a downturn. this is from the people who wants to believes on their own, and other people are switching to the most better one. but for me it is not takes too long, just hold and believe what you believing for and soon all thing will be fine. dont bother for just this dip because crypto is for the long term and not for the short term.

Downturn?

It's a combination of factors.

1) Crypto Scams. Someone buys a coin that is essentially an elaborate scam, gets ripped off and tells someone. That news spreads. Then another victim and another victim and that puts a bad taste in one too many mouths.
2) Media hype and media scares.
3) Exchanges that are making money off investors by slowing down transfers, adding fees and pretty much screwing around for the highest possible payout. This can also be holding funds, placing extreme holds on deposits so that the depositor misses out on a price value etc. Other times it's the trading price of a coin 5-10X the actual legitimate price on other exchanges also blocking out deposits of that particular coin to keep others from benefiting off of this "in house" price manipulation.
4) Massive sell offs back to fiat
5) Too many coins coming out at the same time meaning the funds between coins are being spread too thin. Too many people have diversified their coin collections into the hundreds of coins which has caused some noticeable drops on the main coin's value. The reason that's also happening is that coins that typically are traded against LTC and maybe Doge markets are now being placed in the BTC markets. So people are trading more BTC or ETH for these alt coins yet are essentially cause the value of both BTC/ETH and the alt coin to fall. it's a vicious cycle. Example: Ethereum based coins. You'll notice strong sways in pricing over the last month as more and more eth based coins hit the market. People sell their ETH to get a particular coin ultimately dropping the price of ETH, panic and sell back at a loss on both ends.
6) ICO fraud and scams being exposed.
7) Airdrop scams

Peoples are selling and they turn investing in the cheaper coins, so some new and cheap coins rise their price but the main coins all are at the bottom and have chances to fall again.

The current situation on the market was due to a number of reasons. Chinese New Year, A number of large banks stopped accepting payments for crypto currency using credit cards. Some governments around the world have opposed the Crypto-currency. It is also necessary to take into account smaller manipulators, which cause panic among investors of crypto-currencies.

Many speculations that turned out to destroy crypto reputation are the reasons why many are skeptic about this market. Those investors that got in and now starting to feel skeptic are now adding to the force that was created by the whales. This is whats happening, whales are selling, small investors are selling to demand is becoming low = price low.

There can be a lot of reasons why the downward trend is observed in the market. This isn't just due to one country banning btc and alts alone, there were also citizens in that country that sell digital assets to other countries due to banning of transactions in their own. This same is true with others that ban crpytos in their soil.
Also there are those manipulators from the market, that can decide which goes up and which goes down.
There are a lot of factors at play.

To be honest, I have mixed emotions right now. There's a part of me that I'm totally scared and hit the "Dump" button, but there's another part of me that says "Hold on, believe it will recover". It's not the first time that we are experiencing like this.

Last December, we're also experiencing a major downfall due to holidays. From an all-time high of $20k, it even dropped to $10k. However, it recovered so quickly and stabilizes between $15k to $17k.

Now it trades below $10k, so a lot of newbies are being manipulated once again by whales to dump their coins/tokens, to make room for them to rebuy and increase their portfolio in that specific asset.

Also, expect another crash when the Lunar New Year comes February 16. There will be lots of dumpers to celebrate the Chinese New Year, so we will prepare for that too.

So basically China is to blame for everything?  ;D

But yeah, that's a good point about the Chinese New Year, will keep that in mind.

I've read the news about south korea denying the crypto ban. But how about China? Have they confirmed or denied anything?

The government of China is not totally banning the cryptocurrency the mainland residents were often still able to access some foreign exchanges, as well as over the counter trading platforms. With this over view there's nothing to be worry with this market cap down I know that the crypto price quick to consolidate and return to a position  of strength.

of course there are many reasons why prices are falling and certainly is a lot of merchants who sell their coins at cheap prices,probably because they panicked with a lot of bad news about the crypto in circulation. but let's look at the years before prices fall at the beginning of the year and begin to grow in the middle of the year..

Perhaps this could be two reasons that may very well affect the drastic fall in prices in the market.

I think you should be more specific about what FUD is giving, oh maybe because the G20 meeting that discuss bitcoin impacts or not on the country's economy, and continued by panic sell, then some say that India ban bitcoin (FUD), it looks like it's over and now crypto is heading for good growth.

In my opinion, the negative news or issues spread from the media around the world really influence the market.
Moreover, many people have influenced that kind of issues without reviewing or cross-checking the truth.
It will influence the desire of many people to sell out the coins and fewer people want to buy them.
But, I'm sure that along the time, the issues will be less. We must be one that takes part to spread the good issues of the crypto.

Exactly, we have to concentrate more on buying the coins when it is at dips, because many people panic about the market when the prices are kept decreasing. So we have to hold the previously purchased and buy the coin when their prices decreases.

It is most likely to affect the market falls were due to panic sell.

Aside the South Korean Market issue which was eminent, or the China and Indian FUDs then, there should not be much to worry about because the downturn of the market shall be for a while. Bitcoin itself is presently controlling all FUDs trying to stabilize and becomes at least steadily moving up to moon at the next boom which is all good to go. And hence, so many holders of Bitcoin are not just ready to dump or part with them anyhow for no just cause, with the believe of expected spikes or Price hikes soonest.

That's one of the reason of downturn but through panic selling effects, the people who was actively trading might think it in a wrong impression. More individuals will be afraid to pursue their holdings, so they sell at an earlier span of time. Buying demand could be accommodated if those holders sell their asset eventually and the other parties will still wait for the price to grow further.

It's probably, everything can influence. However, as I concern, the most reasons for making the price dropping are the presence of the negative issues around the world. It includes the news of baning from some countries, social media, or Google. The panic people also influence when they realize that the price is very dropped, then they will sell away their coins that drive the price down and down.
