I have long felt the price of crypto down, I am panicked to see the current market situation, please tell me, what causes the price of crypto down?

i have the same question, more than 50% of the crypto  transaction was made through BTC then  how its fall down plz explain

Trading time only it is circulate in the site after completing automatically it is move the altcoins so we don't calculate the circulation but demand and supply is the major role in crypto down. This year many peoples are afraid to invest in crypto so downtrend is comes in the market. But this price fluctuation is recover again.

There are several factors when it involves downward trends and the bearish markets.
It could be dumping issues
it could be negative news
it could be fud
it could be low demand and high supply
it could be due to hacking issues thereabout.

Regardless, make your profit during the dip and the pump market.

it seems that Bitcoin is the basic price for other coins, because if the bitcoin price falls then the Altcoin price will also fall. And another reason that causes prices to fall is the holder who sells the coins they have simultaneously.

Downtick sells are what causes the price of crypto to go down.

Cryptocurrency's declining support levels are able to make its development also decrease. so it would be great to use full support for the development of existing coins. so as to make the price increase. and when the downward and falling developments will also make the price decline.

so 2018 is bad year for Crypto until now lets wait and see Q 4

There are many factors responsible for the price dropping of cryptocurrency. The demand and supply of cryptocurrency plays the major role. The other factors include the scalability issues, transparency, liquidity etc.

Most of problems are because of FUD. Many people ride the FUD to make the price down so that they can buy coin at cheap.

The price of crypto currency is falling down from the starting of this year. The can be many reasons but I think low demand is the main reason for this. We know that if the demand is low then the price will fall. Moreover some hacking events also caused the market to come to this situation. I hope that the price will rise within few months.

Hey are you watching the price or not. Actually bitcoin price simply stable and bumping little in the marketplace. I think you need to find the marketplace value of the each coin what is the growth from the scratch. If you see the growth for this year you may invest as trader.

If you want to get the growth for long term profit check the long time stable and grown coins and invest on it. I do not think it will fall in the market more mate. Hacking is actually not truth you need to have more super computers to hack one wallet if that is not having bitcoins also. So do not consider that at all.

There are so many reasons like the whales, panic seller, bad news,.....Beside I also think because it's summer time at the moment :)). It mean almost traders and investors are being abroad on vacation. LOL. It's the reason why until now price of BTC and all other cryptocurrencies are really low. But seem like they are going to come back, BTC price is nearly $7k and it'll get over $7k very soon :)

The downtrend is due to technical analysis of btc , which is the major control of the cryptocurrency , TA is like a common language used by investors and once it give signal of coming down most investors that know the rules sale and wait for its dip to buy again and only pump again once they discover it's about time to move again.

The major reason of price fall of the crypto currency is the rate of supply and demand.

The crypto market is all speculation so you don't know...

In fact, a lot of factors make the market go down. The recent hacking of the exchange has caused the cryptocurrency market to fall by 10 percent.

You see all those excuse that you guys mention most of the time are just some pathetic excuse to justify the movement of the market downwards. With or without negative news, this market was bound to face a huge correction after the massive pump. FOMO is just a way to invite greedy investors into the space, while FUD like what we are having now is to scare them away to sell at loss, which is what we are simply having now. In the long run, the market would be back and better, just that there could still end up being a rinse and repeat with a lot of investors, even those here now still not learning.

The most influential factor that triggers the price of cryptocurrency to fall down is the flow of supply and demand. Followed by the impact that the government policies makes and as well as the time, season and holidays. Also, the influence that the media and social media give to the viewpoint of the people who know and do not know cryptocurrency.

Most of the guys are saying that this is something like the correction that we had in April, some of them can say that this is the slow but confident death of cryptocurrencies, we can only wait and hope.

There are various reasons for Price drop in cryptocurrency one of them that has recently happened was suppose an exchange gets hacked then the people who previously using that exchange withdraw their coins or they panick sale which results in huge increase in sell orders and hence the price drop.

Remember about the manipulation of the market and it must have listed on your list. Today it has become another big problem in the crypto such as Mtgox and EOS because both were dumping a huge amount of bitcoin and ethereum but this time their can't do that again. I hope another rise will come asap.

Really, it is concern at present.  There are many factors regulating crypto down, but mainly include negative articles discouraging investing in crypto, some crypto exchanges hacking and scams, pump and dump of some crypto coins.

the price of Cryptocurrency will be very capable to be influenced by the existing developments in Cryptocurrency that is currently present. with the existing developments will help and affect more greatly the existing prices on the market Cryptocurrency. so this is affecting the price of Cryptocurrency.

there are many factors that cause the market to go down every day. of course this does not happen just so much more for this year. I think the result of the correction and crash is the beginning and the effect is so pronounced to this day.

Simply more supply then demand, it could be caused by a lot of reasons.
One of them- the believe of people that the price of bitcoin will go down in the short-term so they prefer to sell in order to save in costs/to buy cheaper bitcoins.
Another thing may be a strong player that decided to sell his bitcoins after buying a large quantity just to move the market to the side that he wants.
It could be a market manipulation, and the manipulator earns the ability to buy cheap bitcoins, which is very important in the cryptocurrency market.

There are many reasons that affect the price of crypto. One of the reasons is that the FUD and the bad news come from the states about banning the crypto. And crypto is a place of security but hacked. These are the reasons that happened in 2018 that caused market prices to go down

There's a lot of factor that affects the price of cryptocurrency to go down but mainly it is the demand on that specific coin, if the demand will decrease then the price will get cheaper or drop. There is also a manipulation of price this is why whenever whales are selling the markets are getting red, and it will create fear to small time investors, so what will happen is they will also sell. After it hit the bottom or the support level, that is the time whales will reinvest, but may not be the same coin. Another reason for the price of a coin to go down is when there is a bad news about an exchange being hacked or if a specific coin have a bad news, then it is more likely that investors/traders will immediately selling that coin, so the price will drop again.

There are several large (very large) whales that rule on the crypto market. News or any other reasons have nothing to do with it. All the falls and growths are provoked by these whales. Therefore, no forecasts in this market do not work! One thing is certain: there are periods of growth, and there are periods of decline. You just need to maneuver between them.

Obviously.
They can overdo it. And is there point of no return? I mean,
in the past, the BTC price fluctuated in the range of hundreds of $, now in thousands $;
time periods may also increase;
thus, it may happen that prices will fall so that the entire crypto industry will plunge into long-term sleep

it's all speculative mate. watch out

What causes that? bears sometimes stronger than it falls but bulls are also not weak nowadays so the market seems stable in terms of power of each one.

The reason for the price of the crypto is not one, so it is impossible to find the exact cause. Supply and demand, whales, speculation, rumors and news all have positive or negative effects on price.

Now the market is in correction and therefore it is necessary to keep their coins and sell nothing as the correction will not be a long time and we will see sooner or later growth and then you can make a good profit, so think

There are a lot of factors which affects crypto prices. The simplest one is due to the law of supply and demand. Panic and fear are natural emotions of human, once must be able to control it to avoid being affected in market's price movement. The volatility will always be there and we must come up with our own strategy in making profit.

Precisely what you are feeling, panic. Panic is what caused the price to go down, people thought that the price of bitcoin will go up indefinitely in December and whenever that kind of thinking happens this means the market will crash and it did, then people began realizing their mistake and now instead of greed dominating the market panic took hold and it is still the dominant force in the market.

yes, and the main cause of panic is the emergence of negative issues about crypto, so we as users of crypto must always campaign to all parties so do not easily believe with the issue of negative issues.

Yes I agree with you but sometimes I feels those big fishes who had invested huge amount would have cages out and trying to bring the price down so that they can reinvent into crypto coins and earn more profits.

I think that everything will be fine, but to find out what affects growth is difficult .. But I think futures

I think because many investors are pulling their funds from the exchangers because this year a lot of outstanding issues and some bad news about cryptocurrency, so they decided to secure their assets

The market is falling alongside the news, the bad news from different countries and, of course, the actions of people who are in this market, are most affected by this!

There are a lot of different theories on this, but i mostly believe in one.
Big crypto hlders decided to dumped the price in order to buy it more and cheaper, as crypto has a briliant future.

This is the time where the effects of the increase due to a large number of hard fork early last year. but in addition to a large number of rejection at that time took place also makes the price of crypto fall far enough. Although appearing much support as well but this has yet to be fully managed to back lifting the value of crypto.

So many things can make the price of crypto price to go down. These includes speculations, panic or fear. Although there could be some other manipulations too which I am not sure of. But FUD generally is the major factor responsible for fall in prices of cryptos.

I suppose that there is no correct answer to your question because the current market is bearish and it means that supply is much more than demand in the current time. I assume that this situation will be changed soon because every bearish trend has its end. I am observing market and I can say that the current situation looks well enough because bears have become weaker significantly.

Here is one logical explanation. In the summer, everyone is resting and withdrawing money from the cryptocurrency. Look at the charts of many years in the summer is always reduced the price of stock or altcoins.

Increased cases of thefts from exchanges, a bad news background, all this has a bad effect on the crypto market.

Currently, the exchange rate of the cryptocurrency market has been rising for 2 days now. There are many reasons for the decline in the rate of cryptos, but the main reason is the psychology of investors with cryptocurrency. The news of investors' sentiment is also the primary cause of exchange rate devaluation.

I think price fall down because of demand decrease. We all know price depends on the demand condition. So i suggest you buy some profitable coin in this time. Because price will rise in near future.

It is important for growing price to ensure that price drop to the maximal bottom. Emotion should not provoke to sell your investments.

From my littles experience
1. High supply than demand of tokens
2. Negative news or Fud ( fear, uncertainty and doubt) about the market at that point in time
3. Carelessness or need for instant profit forces a lot of people to dump their tokens which is not healthy generally in the crypto world

There are many reasons that causes the price of cryptos to go down, The below are some of the main reasons so far.
1. FUD
2. Exchange Hacking
3. Price Manipulation
4. Negative News
5. Goverments Banning Cryptos
6. Correction
These are the major reasons which I feel have caused the price of cryptos to go down. But this is Cryptos you still cannot predict but only hope for the best.

I believe that the cryptocurrency market has a place to be a lot of prohibitions in different countries,in Asia and the United States.If the state does not want that people would live normally,introduce a lot of prohibitions and everything is not right with the laws on the regulation of cryptocurrency and similar laws. There are still many circumstances that affect the fall and the most important thing is human ignorance and fear of the unknown or doubtful - in this case, it is low knowledge intensity!

which I have seen so far has nothing to cause the price of crypto to decline and the price of altcoin decreases as it follows the movement of bitcoin, therefore I also believe that nothing causes the price of crypto to decline because it may be due to the crypto market that has dropped and has not returned and so the crypto price also down

One of the reason in this happening in crypto is hackers that's why it gets down because this thiefs they don't know that if they hack here the traders will decrease.

Actually they crypto market is infected for price based on this crypto market trying to increase their price based on this the negative issues of crypto , low demand high supply in the market also banning issues are the major problems of price falling.

The charge of crypto up-to-dateness is descending asphyxiate from the turn of this eld. The be galore rationale however I determine utter have need is the principal reason for this.

Bitcoin price highly affects the other coins price. The BTC price falls down for this reason the other currency get affected and the entire market falls down. But it is recovering it be stable soon.

The reasons can be very much, as already mentioned. I think that this concerns the mass exit from the crypto currency and the loss of interest in people, because now people will be occupied with other problems and most likely people will simply lose everything that we have today.

None of us can know for sure why the price of crypto is falling every day ...

This year is very difficult for the crypto  , there are no new investors ...

The supply in the market is greater than its demand causing the market low price. We are still dealing with currency and it is part of it to experience up and down of price. We better trust the market that sooner or later it will fully recovered from the drop. Although some people says that the price is manipulated by big whales but there's no proof about this. Maybe some black propagandas just wanted to ruin the market.

There are many factors, but generally the coins change their prices due to changes in demand and offer while purchasing and saling them.

It's not because the bad news were the main reasons from all of the lates bearish trend. I guess the manipulators are not doing it anytime. it seems you know nothing about that. Just try to do a lot of reasearch before try to do anything with your statement. At least you can give an evidence about that.

I doubt that this is just natural changes in demand, there is something bigger going on, either some bad news or big whales manipulating the price

I think the market sentiment is the most important reason.
Because there are no new investors in the whole market, it's a terrible thing.

Do not worry , you need to be calm , the market is unpredictable . I think the market will soon go up

Why panicked do you have amount of coins on hand?the way you put this post seems like you have nothing in your pocket ,dont get me wrong butvthats how i see on you

And regards tl the price dropping this is normal because price is volatile and this is proof that market is healthy when ups and downs happens

Correct the reason of the market was down the price because it is volatile behind that cryptocurrency that makes up and down the if you know much better not to get panicked. If you holding a huge amount much better don't look the price of market cap price by the hour, just forgot a moment and come back when they are bouncing back the price.
The question is, are you ready for the price increase in crypto? Make it full your wallet with bitcoin and altcoins and prepare for the huge earning.

a large number of crypto restrictions to still have the result up to now even coupled with the large number who took off when the price dropped to the crypto problem quite serious. slowly but certainly crypto will be able to ride back to the high prices. It's just that many are impatient to wait for it and choose to go to seek safety.

There are factors to consider why the market is going down and these are.
1. People don't know how the market works so they tend to panic sell and ended up quitting due to huge losses.
2. Affected by spreading bad or fake news of mainstream media so people tend to panic.
3. People are starting to stay away from any crypto investments because of being scam by a fake ICO or Coins.
4. The market is being manipulated.

I do not think there's any cause for altcoin's turnaround and so nowadays many people are investing in promising altcoin and waiting for altcoin prices back then I think there's no cause for altcoin drops

The can be many reasons but I think low demand is the main reason for this. We know that if the demand is low then the price will fall.

There are many reasons why the market is bloody now, for me, it is because the price of Bitcoin, most of coins are following Bitcoin, when the bitcoin is dumping, the other coins are also dumping, and when Bitcoin is pumping, then some of altcoins are also pumping.

actually there's a lot of reason why crypto is falling if you don't know , such hacking exchange and etc. ( like what happened last few days) and banning and selling which is really affect on market price  .but always be strong don't panic 'cause it's a normal attitude of market when there's a dump. Which is after down fall it will climb again until it recover, but it takes time so be patient don't be greedy  .

Crypto price down because of your panic, and not vice versa. In my opinion, this is a natural cycle, because those who enter with expectations that are too big will panic faster when the market situation is not as expected. But there is always a chance if we are quite keen in taking chances.

To much pop up of thousands of token that others have zero value. Big fish investors get out of crypto because of this problem and its should be stop.As observe market price of all altcoin going down even bitcoin. Its only my opinion but probably one of the cause.

This is fluctuation. And many people say that this is a healthy correction of a very fast rise last year.
But maybe it is, and if we are ready to take risks, I think this is an opportunity to make a good deal for the future.

In my opinion, our psychological situation is still not fully recovered. This is very influential, because we will become more quickly experience the panic.
But fluctuations will of course take a toll, and those who remain in the patience will be the winners.

Maybe this is what some people want, bringing crypto at a lower point, just to set the next swing. This may be normal, because even today crypto is still larger than the middle of last year. It's not a good situation if you've been holding a portfolio earlier this year, but for others, maybe it's time to panic about buying.

Don't expect a good pump this month or even next month expect a declined price of bitcoin. Year of 2017 is a good year to make profits and now the year of buying altcoins. Same goes next year it would be a good year to all of us. waiting for a big pump next year.

The influence that whales have is big but not as big, whales do not move against the trend they are opportunistic, if they see the trend going up then they will take advantage of it and sell at the top, as you may guess this makes the price to go down but it is not their intention to crash the price, they just want to get cash so when the price inevitably goes down they can take advantage of it and buy more coins.

The price fall is as natural as the price rise. Don't panic at this. But yes there are some reason like regu,ations,bans and most importantly whales behind the continuous price fall that we witnessed recently.

You have a point there, but base on what I understand the reason why the market suddenly goes down because of the investors who directly lost interest on the specific project they are investing too.

I don't find any particular reason other than some sort of lack in massive adoption as the cause for the ongoing price trend. Because last year the adoption rate was quite high, this time the positive news around cryptocurrency was good but the massive adoption is the one required along with it to drive the price forward reach bigger value.

Factors that could affect the dumping prices of the tokens are usually the spreading of fud. Some people tend to generate their own news and spread it to the community. Creating a lot whole story in each and everyones head.

1. Many bad news come
2. The market is stable now. All coins have got their true value.
3. Many scams make some people lose their money so they do not trust in the market anymore.

Not everyone is brave like you! Most common cause is FUD and fear of getting the crypto banned in countries across the world triggers massive dump. Bankers invest big time through whales spread fear by dumping so that they can buy more.

 ;)The crypto market is down because of they get over priced, and then they fall ,whatever happens in the future once they go up so far ,they come down. and you got not to panic, don't sell off your coins early

The things that make the price of crypto come down are: the sale of whales and investors, the bad news, the manipulation. That is all the reason for the bad effects of the altcoins. But all is the strategy of the whale, you should not be so worried about the future of Cryptocurrency. I guarantee that it will last forever but can earn a lot of money on the Crypto market or not will depend on you. ;)

Depend on how person works about his coin, if he's playing with short he can take advantage but its too risky playing with that, the market still relying with supply and demand, a lots of people bought when the value still down and now they are cashing it out while those who invest late are panicking and selling with their loses, it means that market is falling due to the behavior of holders and traders, more people who will hold more chances that value will increase back.

Many people want to join in crypto now to buy and to invest and this many new people didn't know what crypto really is. They buy and invest coins but when the market is dropping like now they sell it, they can't wait and didn't realize how much they can earn if they can wait for a little of time.

Crypto down because that is a big crypto bitcoin also decline. the occurrence of many rejections in crypto provides enough big impact. and even this probably also cycles of the crypto is indeed a lost year because of the high rise a few months ago. to get to the next rise likely awaits will not happen any time soon.

I think many reasons cause the crypto down and down again, FUD, SCAM, Trading Bot, but the main point is many scam ICO around the world, fake web page, fake team, so not many investors want to investors in the ICO or market now.

It's not China, or India, or whales manipulating the price, or South Korea, or CNBC, or wall street manipulating the price via futures, or the Winklevoss twins cashing out...

It's banks choking the inflow of money into crypto by banning purchases through credit cards. By raising the barrier to entry less money flows in to balance the money flowing out and prices drop.

This has thrown cold water on the hot crypto market and turned into a feedback loop as people don't like to buy when prices are dropping. It will continue until all the speculators are out and only the true believers in a crypto economy remain.

This is text-book bubble pop. A huge majority of investors jumped in for high returns, not for the technology. When it stops giving high returns, it dips. People "buy the dip", trigger a bull trap, but returns are not nearly enough what they used to be. So it dips again and the "buy the dip" folks are out of money. So it dips further. Triggers a lower bulltrap. And it keeps doing this until we have a despair phase where it'll be lower than the current "mean value". I think we'll see BTC at 2-5k before consolidation at 5-7k. Might be less. And BCH is also gonna take a similar hit and we might see 200 USD BCH's.

Many reasons, some governments has banned cryptocurrency. Many cryptocurrency exchanges, platforms got hacked recently. These make cryptors sell in panic so the market falls down.

Well the crypto market is highly volatile, negative news affect the prices very badly and recent news about bitcoin and crypto ban form India, USA justice department action against price manipulation and Japan new policies toward crypto currency and ICO plays major role in this price down flow.

Many people keep the information when they hear such Bitcoin, Bitcoin is dead, Bitcoin returns $ 1000. They saw bitcoin prices drop and they panicked then they sold out their coin to cut losses. A huge amount of money is being sold on the market. That makes the price of every coin on the market diminish dramatically.

I also have the same questions as you, almost all the coins in the crypto price decreased and this has been a long time. how could this happen? seems to have to sell all my coins.

I want to say if many factors that make the market down. Recent exchange hacks have caused cryptocurrency markets,
to fall and other reasons that cause prices to fall are holders who sell coins they own simultaneously.

So many things are responsible for the correction we see in the market today. It could either be negative news as regarding the market or FUD. These things have reduced the market but we are quite sure that with time, the market will bounce into full profit.

of course a lot of the cause. An example is due to panic sell. When panic sell, many people come to sell. Then this will make the price of coins being dropped and even will be very low.

chances are it's time to decrease let alone the bitcoin itself until now also has not returned so, in my opinion, there is nothing that causes the price of Crypto down but I am sure with Crypto's current turmoil can quickly return and can get a good profit

I do not know the obvious for the cause of the price Cryptocurrency is decreasing. so I examine, and I see when many are converting Crypto currency into cash this development is on the Cryptocurrency market is decreasing. and as far as I know for Cryptocurrency has a very influential development.

It may have a certain relationship with the World Cup, but it has little effect. I think the reason for the decline is that the dollar is stronger, but this is only a matter of time, and the dollar will depreciate in the future.

The majority of them are still holding their ethereum and they are releasing a little part of their raised amount in some periods i will say they are not the real reason what makes the price of crypto goes down a lot. The bad news and trend is the real reason behind that. You can see that a lot of good news and not even one from that news can give a recovery impact.

There are many factors responsible for the price dropping of cryptocurrency. The demand and supply of cryptocurrency plays the major role.

I think, prices of crypto down because bitcoin value is down too, alts depends on btc value so that now, alts price is decrease. We should wait for the further recover of bitcoin and stay calm, dont panic. It is normal but lets just monitor the market so that we are updated about what happen on crypto.

The fall is always justified by the fact that demand falls.My personal opinion.  And so reasons can be favorite.

I think it was caused by the World Cup. You can't agree with me. I think the World Cup is the biggest gambling project in the world. Maybe a lot of whales are going to participate in the World Cup.

According to what I read on the Internet, exchanges and some organizations are making effort to manipulate crypto market. Do not forget governments! They might take their own action, too.

The cryptocurrency users of course, we control the market let's say all people sell their bitcoins/cryptocurrencies the price will go down of course and if many people are buying rather than selling the price will go up, but I think sometimes the cause of the down of the cryptocurrencies is the big whales in the market that has power to let the cryptos goes ups and downs.

Well this is just my opinion and if you're going to look at this kind of perspective there's a possibility that they're the responsible for this right?

The absence of funding, no one wants to loose their jobs investing in crypto among the tops of the big funds. And anyone who wants risks and profits now can have only risks

You only looking at the 2017 December price thats why youre aiming for high value of bitcoin,but its not because the pricd of bitcoin nowadays is the right one and not a bubble value so expect no bigtime now,better be contented on this movement and just wait if theres a growth in future

because there's a big mafia playing, selling all the bitcoins they've earned from the bitcoin scam website they had made last year, and also the falling XPY price is now also the cause of the bitcoin down.

Most of the holders of crypto currencies, both large and small, took the position of "HOLD" regarding their investments. This led to the fact that the growth of the capitalization of the crypto currency market stopped. As a large number of crypto currency holders sold part of their assets during the summer holidays for  of having to have cash for spending on rest. This led to a decrease in the capitalization of crypto currencies and lowered their rate.

You can`t really specify one factor that drops the market. Usually there are quite a number of things that can influence the price of any given instrument on the market. The people`s belief in the product, the owners, those who have the largest number of shares will influence the price.

Multiple factors -- news, expected news, technical analysis and so on.

Or just figure it's all market manipulation, and forget about trying to figure anything out, and
just go with the flow.

What makes the price of crypto down is the Lunar New Year
The Lunar New Year, or Lunar New Year, will begin on February 16, 2018 and, like Christmas in December, the Lunar New Year will also cause the market a loss.
The Lunar New Year is a huge one-people spend on gifts and travel for about $ 100 billion during this time. The crypto market has retail investors, which means that such an event will result in the goods being able to be consumed very quickly in a short time.
In fact, a Reddit user (u / Secruoser) shares an image (below) that shows the trend has always been in the last four years.

Mainly market correction after the huge bump last year. There is also manipulation of bitcoin by the big players. As bitcoin value drops, alts will surely drop. So there's a reason alts are dropping. There could be others such as project inactivity. That is project dependent.

In my opinion that causes the price of crypto currency down is a massive movement caused by an incorrect issue. Now, the rise of negative issues about crypto that makes all the crypto currency players panicked face the existing conditions. Because this panic makes them do a similar large-scale moves, for example everyone holds crypto without anyone making a sale or just selling their crypto or just buying crypto only. Of course this makes the market conditions are not balanced and prices will be more volatile.

From all of these factors and there is one that give a very big domination to the crypto market. This is not the first time to see the market doesn't give a lot of reaction about the good news of cryptocurrency.
are you sure about TA gives a contribution to the downtrend of the market?

a decrease in the crypto is a reasonable case. corrections and bubble phenomenon is natural and without any definite reason. as the investor should at least be able to understand about this in order to be able to utilize any existing conditions in order to get maximum results. see crypto continues to rise naturally also is not possible, a decline that will always be there every time.

It could be a number of things that cause the prices of cryptos to drop. There is the countless fuds that we have had to deal with over the past few months. Then there is also a lot of people panicking, selling and leaving the market because they are scared that the prices will never recover. It is not just one thing but actually an accumulation of things that cause the price of the cryptos to fall.

Well, it could be caused by  few factors. With my little experience so far I could see that it is caused majorly by rate of demand and supply of crypto.... That is how it has been ,it increase and falls and later increases again..... If good news spread abt crypto, it influences it as well sometimes

There may be other factors that causes the price of crypto down but the major reason which I think is demand and supply. When demand of a coin is high, then the price will also be high but if demand is low, price will also be low.

There are lots of reasons or factors attached to this, the price of crypto is down because some bounty hunters quickly dump their tokens immediately receiving it.

I still can't figure it out. why, and what to start from ? everything is so unpredictable that just hard ( so I can't give advice .

I think that the main influence on cryptocurrency price is whales. Until market has regulation they will continue pump and dump price as they want.

It seems to me that in order for cryptocurrencies to grow , we need a really strong news. for example, the addition of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a means of payment in most large online and offline stores, it will greatly increase the liquidity and accordingly the price. I think 2019 will be the key year for cryptocurrencies.

It is because of fud and negative news in the market. Also the big players take out their investment. Volatility in market, did and negative news force people to take out their investment . This causes the market down.

It is speculation my friend. The market cap is relatively small and it isn't hard for big players to manipulate the price of main coins like BTC and ETH. The market will remain so volatile at least for couple of years. And no matter how strange it sounded, it is necessary that more big players with different strategies enter the market.

There are a lot of reasons why the price of crypto is falling. One reason why it would go down it is because there are some negative news about crypto which affects not onlye the image, but also its parts.

do not panic the possibility of the price of crypto down can be caused by the number of investments and the emergence of new coins we must be able to control our emotions can still be calm.

many factors lead to dropping of prices it can be due to low supply less circulation of the coin the coin not being able to cope up with the market or it is noot needed in the market or government regulations and many more factors affect the market

countless confinements to in any case have the outcome up to currently even combined with the huge number who took off when the value dropped to the crypto issue very genuine. gradually however absolutely crypto will have the capacity to ride back to the high costs. It's simply that numerous are fretful to sit tight for it and go to look for wellbeing.

There are many reasons for declining crypto's rates. Due to the negative news, due to the anxiety of investors should lead to panic sell. The fall in the price of cryptos will have a huge impact on investors' sentiment, and they will have a psychological fear of a loss, and eventually, they will sell all of the cryptos that will cause the exchange rate to fall.

I agree so many reasons causes the price to decline. The solution when price drops never in panic selling it will causes yoh huge lose. That negative news has the big impact on crypto might as well hold your coins it will be in rises price again.

I also feel panicked at the decline in assets I have today because the value is greatly reduced, a lot of things happened to Crypto and so far the problem has always been negative because yesterday it failed at ETF so the price back down, but we have to be optimistic and see the experience that happened in the previous year because Crypto is very strong and not easy to drop and of course the price will rise again.

There are many reasons, and the volatility of the market is really high. We should also remember, that fiat market and trading wars also influence the cryptocurrencies, and they may fall even without bad news.

Because many newcomers want to try to invest in it and they panic when the price drops a little and then sell it so the price is decreasing. Although they are not aware because it is what makes the price of crypto down. Better if you want to try to invest must capitalize knowledge about crypto.

I think some news went round not quite long. News that could cause panic and make some investors to dump. The most amazing fact is that, there are so many projects that are currently experiencing this downtrend.

Several reasons impact the market decline in Crypto like negative news,  rumours, lower demand, market depression, panic selling, whales manipulation  etc and combination of all of it and many other factors.

There are a lot of manipulators of the crypto especially those with big supplies of the particular coins that can drive the market up and down very fast. Thats why institutions wont come soon here. Regulations are needed emergency and fast

the price of crypto that sometimes rose and sometimes down caused some people to panic especially those who are not business or investment in trading because in that market if the supply of a lot then the price will go down as well in crypto

Altcoins are still connected to bitcoin price, once btc goes down, altcoins will be affected and have a decline also.  It is sad that altcoins won't stand independently and be dependent on BTC trend.
Another reason also is that,  due to market manipulation created by some big whales and seemingly prices aren't able to climb up high.

Almost everything. I can sneeze and prices may fall down. However that is a not a specifically bad thing because same happens when going up.  People forget that the prices stay low for MONTHS before it goes back up. I can tell you that prices of bitcoin slowly raised during last summer but it was always close.
On December it went up like a skyrocket. It happened like that before as well. It just stops at the same prices for a loooooong time and when times comes it goes up in a spike a huge spike and then it goes back down to a sensible price but better than the initial price and then stays there again and so forth for a long time it has been like this.

that caused the price of digital currencies go down caused by negative information against user cryptocurrency. then the other reasons that cause the price cryptocurrency down as more sellers than buyers. that's the reason that I think is true

Seeing people panics about the situation of the cryptocurrency really saddened me  because it makes crytptocurrency market even worse because it will lead to selling their coins in the market which cause to fall down instantly. Maybe they see badnews/fakenews about cryptocurrency but we cannot blame people who loses huge amount of money in crypto that is why they started to stay away from the cryptoworld.

trading volume is one factor. When there is little or low trading volume, the price of coins tends to drop. Interest is also a factor.

I do not know the main reason I just think why crypto prices go down is because people's interest in crypto is currently down especially when there are many people who are trapped in scam projects that cause loss of confidence in the crypto and its impact from crypto transactions to be few and automatic prices slowly become low

Ever since futures were allowed to be traded on Wall Street, the price of BTC has steadily gone down.

With BTC leading the way for crypto, in essensce, the money men became the tail that wags the dog.

That, and the market for Bitcoin is tiny.  It doesn't take much money to influence the market up or down.

Until the masses flood into cryptos, the whole scene will remain like it is for a while (for all of us, time to accumulate, accumulate, accumulate.)

The cryptocurrency market is as unregulated as it can get. Things that would result in jail time on the stock market are legal here. In such a scenario, it’s no surprise that big players are manipulating the markets for their own gain. It’s no longer rare for people to run bots to buy and sell cryptocurrencies.
Amateur investors, on the other hand, want to make quick profits. Once the price starts falling, these investors tend to panic sell. The combination of market manipulation and panic selling may be a reason behind the current price fall. One might argue that the market is going through its long term growth correction, but there is a chance it could be in for a deeper fall. The market could swing either way.

You don't need to panic sell your tokens, I believe the market will still recover very soon. And the cause of downturn in the market is as  result of dumping a token at an early stage.

If it were possible to explain the behavior of the crypto market, there would be no panic. Panic occurs when people are not sure of the future or the results of what is happening. Now everyone decides for himself what to do. It is better not to listen to other people's advice: you will hear only what you want to hear.

The fall in the rates of cryptos has some causes, but it is mainly from my point of view that investors' sentiment is severely affected after receiving negative news. They will lose confidence and lead to the sale of all the cryptos they own, and this will cause the exchange rate of the entire market to fall sharply.

one of the causes is the failing of projects. the project seems useless in the end that the coins were undervalued.While I personally do not believe we will see this happen in 2018, I would react instantly by moving my crypto holdings into "safer" asset classes if I noticed one of the scenarios becoming more likely.

Talking about falling crypto rates, I find this to be quite normal at the moment when the exchange rate is low. The fact that the cryptocurrency market is receiving too much negative news leads to the FUD, which confuses investors and leads to panic sell. This dramatically affects the exchange rate of cryptos.

Bitcoin increase\decrease is the main reason behind markets down because some investors lost faith in general for cryptocurrency . i think all markets will return to normal when bitcoin prices reward again the previous huge lose of capitals .

Over the past 24 hours, the valuation of the crypto market has dropped slightly from $300 billion to $295 billion, as the bitcoin price declined from $8,300 to $8,150.

Tokens including Aelf (ELF), Holo (HOT), Zilliqa (ZIL), Binance Coin (BNB), and 0x (ZRX), which performed well against both bitcoin and the U.S. dollar last week, dropped substantially by nearly 10 percent.

The dominance index of bitcoin, which evaluates the dominance of bitcoin over the entire cryptocurrency market, has increased to 47.5 percent, its highest level since early January when the price of BTC hovered at around $19,500.

The market cannot continue to grow up. After huge growth in 2017, the market is now in the consolidation phase. It's inevitable.

Maybe for the countless limitations to at present have the outcome up to currently even combined with the huge number who took off when the value dropped to the crypto issue very genuine. Gradually yet surely crypto will have the capacity to ride back to the high costs. It's simply that many are restless to sit tight for it and go to look for security.

Factors that causes price swing are as follows:
Fuding from traders or newbies.
Weak hands who panuc sell their holdings at loss.
The whale factor.
Unfounded rumours about government ban etc

crypto market needs good news from U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission as a trigger of the return of investors, investors now see crypto as something that is not interesting anymore.

The crypto market is just a volatile one with high unpredictability and lots happenings that affect the value of the coins, BTC precisely has been facing lots of hard times in the market thanks to the negative actions of the national governments and negative publicity that has had its effect on the prices, the hales too have had a role to [lay in draging the coins value down for some reason

Nowadays I am not looking the prices everyday. Market still going down. I think reason is bad news and FUD

I think that the main reason for the collapse of cryptocurrency is the panic of people who are seeing a slight drop in prices immediately start selling their coins because they think that it is already ending. Do not be like that!

There are many reasons for this. I don't know where to start the answer for this question.let's start with one of the major cause which called the velocity of coins. See the fact that is now the coins flow is very low in this one of the reason. Another cause is many scammers.this people are the virus of this place they just destroy the market day by day.another reason is people lose their interest in this market day by day because of some correct coins are west a lots of money of the investor.see one time the market was very high but right now the market was low.so people losses interest in this place. Another reason is acceptance. There are many countries in the world who are not accepting this coins as currency. But in near future, this will happen surely then the market will be high again.so have some patience the market will change again.

What cause the crypto price fell down at first is the whole crypto market going up too much and older hodler dump it to cash put and it is normal. Second is because bitconnect and another scam project which dump btc and eth to earth. Third this time is like 2014 crash which i believe as long as btc above $3000 it is still good and did not die. 2013 was the first time btc touch $1300 and 2014 it crash to $150 untill end of 2016 then it start to grow again.

in my personal opinion it may be the cause of the decline in the price of coins on the market because of the bear market that has been happening for 7 months and until now it is still going on, and maybe it all happened due to the reduction of people who do coin crypto transactions so that the sales volume has decreased which also has an impact on the price that goes down.

Now even an investor is very cautious about choosing projects, as there are many projects that simply collect money for themselves.

They depended the demand and supply in the market and due to the discrimination of crypto I can say that's why market right now is on dump but still it has a chances as well .

The main reason for this movement is the manipulation of sharks to ensure that the bulk sold their coins  :)

I think the price is down because the market fluctuates up and down. We all know the price depends on the demand condition. So you may buy some profitable coin at this time. Because the price will rise in near future.

There may be a lot of reasons, but now it seems to me that the main reason is the loss of investors' interest in the crypto-currency world. I'm sure that now the world is clearly going to do something very terrible, crypto-currencies should obviously replace the financial system.

everyone panic is not only you, no one knows why crypto prices are decreasing. I read the article that Cryoto was down because of bad news about Crypto and that affected crypto prices. I don't know the article is true or not.

There are a lot of possible reasons. There maybe bad news spreading that is why people are afraid to invest in cryptocurrency. It may also the current market situation. The panic sellers and such. But we do not need to worry. Soon people will starting to love bitcoin again and those people who let go of the opportunity to have coins will be below of those who believes in crypto.

Large investors manipulate the price in their own interests, they then lower the price then increase in order to earn more

I don't think very many cause. the most likely is due to a lot of negative news. And lately I have heard massive inflation will occur all over the world. Then I'm sure it's one of the great causes.

There are many reasons which drive the price of cryptos to slump. One of the major reasons is there is no regulation and actual use cases of the majority of crypto coins and their price is based on pure speculation which drives the prices on either direction with vast volatility on the occurrence of any news which creates FUD.

summer, a bad period for crypto . Wait for autumn, the people will return to crypto and crypto will show growth

Prices of ico are down simply because, people sell the tokens at prices lower than the ico prices. This goes a long way to affect the original token price drastically. Again, limited demand in the  token also accounts for the price of crypto to be down.

There are many reasons why the cryptos are going down like banning cryptos in some countries, FUD, hacking big exchanges, scammers and the panic sellers.

Its hard to see most crypto price drop more than 70%. Many speculation why this happen in several months but if we see on history price chart, high fluctuation always happen. I am believe crypto price will reach highest price again in near future.

price manipulation is rampant in new markets. Exchange centers control most of the cryptocurrency movements, thus making them have the desire to gain profits by indirectly manipulating crypto prices. One way is to increase the price written on the exchange so that traders can buy or sell their crypto. The impact of manipulation like this can be compounded if there are thousands of new players that are easily exploited. Plus, price manipulation can be difficult to prove and control in an unregulated market. Central Exchange also has one point of shortage. They manage and store crypto in large amounts, meaning that if they are hacked, it can have a significant impact on cryptocurrency prices. This is the thing that is often forced to drop the price of Cryptocurrency

Only corrections,it is normal things to coins with falling and pumping and bear market when sell more than buy+ big players with big money can manipulate for price and down price to what they need+ investors see to coins corrections and wait when they down to min and then buy to recieve more profit.

I have long felt the price of crypto down, I am panicked to see the current market situation, please tell me, what causes the price of crypto down?

I think the price of crypto is down because there are a lot of negative crypto news and also the investors are declining. Investors greatly affect the prices of all crypto. I hope many investors support crypto.

don't be panic, everything will be fine, the down on crypto is currently due to the decreasing investor interest because many ICO projects are scam and fail, so investors feel that they aren't getting profit and then move to other investment instruments

There can be a lot of reasons for this, from the fact that investors simply stop investing in crypto-currencies because projects mostly turn into scam projects, and I also think that people's interest in crypto-currencies can go out without news.

While some owners are engaged in selling, others are buying, who sees real prospects in the future. The market does not fall, it seems to me, it is rather corrected in response to all the bans that the states are pushing.

The decline in prices is most likely due to the capitalization and popularity of one or another crypto currency, at low rates, the price is also low, respectively!

I think people are constantly afraid of buying because the market will fall, and the crypto world can make people lose money very quickly, so people think it's not a safe investment tool.

Many factors can contribute to the falling of crypto price. Fundamental analysis which can be as a result of bad news, bans and restrictions from some country governments, major or big scale hacking, etc. Also technical analysis which can be as a result of the market being too overbought and oversaturated which is always followed by the market forcefully achieving price equilibrium and corrections.

The price of a coin depends on many factors. The main ones are supply and demand. Also, the price is affected by news (positive or negative) and the market situation in general.

yeah, I also only know these two factors because those are the two things that have a big influence on market movements, regarding other factors I still don't know about it and now I know the cause of the decline in all prices in the market is because there is a negative issue to cryptocurrency.

The main cause of price of crypto down is the demand and supply, if many people are selling then the price is gradually rising but if many people buy or hold crypto it continuously falling that's why people panic when the price is still falling after they buy or they hold. Also the other cause of price down is the few investor who invest to it, so if there only few investor are believing to it then possible it will no longer around.

no one knows for sure about the decline in all prices of crypto currencies. but what clearly affects prices is depending on demand and supply. and a lot of negative news about crypto, so people are afraid to invest and sell it at low prices.

Prices are usually caused by two main factors. As the first element, we can show big investors. As is known, there is no regulation or control mechanism in the cryptocurrency market. For this reason, the price changes depending on the supply / demand balance and large investors can easily control the prices and large capitals. To start with the second element, I would like to begin by stating that this fact actually causes prices to fall to the bottom. As a second element, we can state panic sales, which are usually sales made by investors and caused the market to decline. These sales, which are the result of the decrease wave caused by the big investors, are generally carried out intensively during the dump periods and cause loss of sales to the users.

From my point of view I guess the ICO's are the big draw back as most of them are scammers also the demand and supply are expected for the increase in value. Where most of the investors have hold their coins for a better return. When the coins play in the market obviously the price will increase.

the fall in crypto prices can also occur due to a change of years, or maybe
market speculation, as we know cryptocurrency is still vulnerable to speculation. Whether it's good or bad news, and this greatly affects the price of cryptocurrency.

Their are many reason behind this down fall in the price of crypto. Their volatile nature is one of them. Because of their this nature many investors and people take out their investment from crypto and this thing ultimately affects the price of crypto. And the negative news about crypto spread by different media are also the reason behind its downfall in its price. When crypto are not available according to their demand then also its price falls. And when one government ban it in their country then the negative effect on its price shown on the global market of crypto.

There are many that is associated to it in the market it could be a panic or fake new when there is a panic in the market it totally bring the crypto price down and when there too many demand it also courses the Price to go down.

It is elementary and you have to remember for yourself once and for all. What if the price of a coin goes down means it's more sold than bought. If the coin is actively bought and the number of transactions is greater than the number of transactions with the same coin for sale. Then the price will naturally rise. Everything is elementary and you don't have to be so afraid of it, it's like you take a breath, your lungs expand, you exhale, they shrink.

Firstly it has risen very quickly because the prices are falling. also the prices are falling because the character of this market. prices should decrease and then increase. Meanwhile, whales make money. of course we are trying to make money in the meantime.

Nobody can tell you what exactly caused to crypto decrease,but I bet it is connected with panic sellers due to price manipulations and decision on ETF by SEC affected market

Crypto market is unstable which it affects those issues and diacrimination why investors are afraid to invest ,the run of crypto depended on the demand ,the higher the demand the higher prices explodes.

if you know the reason why the crypto price goes down, what will you do? can you pump the price? I don't think it's important that we know what causes the decline in crypto prices, rather than finding out about it better if we look for strategies to keep getting profit with market conditions like today

There are various reasons behind the down fall in the price of crypto. Cryptocurrency decentralised nature is one of the main reasons behind this. Because of this nature it is not under control of any kind of authority or person. So their is lot of irregularities seen in its production and distribution and this thing ultimately result in fall in its price. Another reason its volatile because of which many investors loss their money and take out their money from cryptocurrency and this become an reason behind this.

I went inactive from July and couple of months and people still ask this kind of ideas which is supposed to be an obvious thing to know in Economics. The supply and demand rule? Did you even take that class before you get in here? Yes, volatile is one of the distinguished characteristics of crypto away from typical economy we commonly have but the thing is the supply and demand still applies in those. You ever heard of whales?

Lack of demand is the cause of current downtrend of the price. Bearish market lasts for 9 months now and
many investors and weak hands already left the space. Waiting for new capital to enter and the price will
increase again. These are normal market cycles at crypto.

This is a very good idea that I think investors in this market should learn. This market is very volatile so adapt and look for solutions to be more successful, otherwise you can do it, then quickly leave it.

There are several various reasons that causing cryptocurrency value go down in the market. One of them maybe there are some peoples selling their coins or not just selling, but dumping their coins with huge amount in the market. They sold because they see there is no bull market in this year, so they sold their coins with loss.

Well, we had a mini pump the last couple days and it is flatlining again.

So what causes the price to down?
Simple supply and demand, that's it.
Of course there are thousands of factors that affect the supply and demand of something.
But basically, more people are selling than are buying.
When more people are buying than are selling, than the price goes up.

So you should start asking yourself, why are more people selling right now instead of buying?
First off, the general market attitude is low and has been low for quite awhile.
People are losing faith in especially the newer speculative projects.
When things stabalize, they will naturally go to more secure investments, like btc and eth.

I think there are many things that could cause downward trends for Crypto but the most paramount of them all is bad news. Bad news does more harms to cryptocurrency price than any other negative conditions.

I think this current crypto price declines because many investors are hesitant to invest. They've probably not interested to invest because much of the fraud occurred and they lost money because it does not have the ability. Surely this must have to invest in a good capability in performing trading strategies.
