What the hell is going on with these dumps? An effort by certain forces to keep the price low or just normal selling? Seems kind of orchestrated to me, 2 decent recoveries then smackdowns, I haven't seen that kind of price action for a while. I guess it could just be all the degen future traders. Anyway clearing out the weak hands around the former ATH is probably a good thing.
Pretty sure this is "usual" selling, the momentum has slowed down since $60K/March, around $800m long liquidations in past two days, and now wicked off 20 DMA around $66K, which is basically the first level of real support (and hasn't been testing since late Feb when price bounced off it). Price still looks bullish above $60K, even if there could be concern over a fake-out high at that level, it's too early to tell.
I think sometimes we forget that even in late 2020, after reaching close to ATH, there was still a couple of weeks of consolidation and wicks to the downside (upto -16%, similar to last week), especially when in considerably overbought territory like we were back then and are still in now. Would of been better to see the correction prior to new ATH rather than after, but you get what you're given.
Otherwise seems very reasonable and appropriate for ATH leverage traders to get rekt

Ever notice how with every dip the MSM tries to attribute it to some news?
So what's this dip? The news that Craig Wrong is not Satoshi?

Would have thought this would be good news to be honest!
