Title: Something people don't seem to understand

The reason the price is going down is because the same people that were buying when it was going up are now selling.

We are now in a bear market.

Does that mean more freefall soon?

Nope, just a few minor rebounds and a long slow slide.

I'm not sure, a large collapse isn't impossible. In fact it would be better for bitcoin to have a quick large collapse hopefully leading to a faster recovery rather than wasting a year in a long bear.

But I'd agree it will likely be a prolonged bear market.

I don't foresee a prolonged bear market. I guess there are quite a few earlier adopters with well above +5.000BTC each that will immediately cash out a significant part of their stash as soon as a continued downtrend pattern looks likely. Just to secure some profit because hey, everybody can enjoy a few hundred thousands dollars.

This means quick decline. We need that. We need cheap coins and a sustainable growth rate :D

Definitely agree on the fast collapse being best, current growth rates are crazy.
