The btc prices and other alts are goong down so it is not only btc struggling these days. Btc usually can grow again and we should not panic. Remember, in every investment their is risks in crypto it is volatile and I believe price could increase possible this year ends.
You are right, it's not just bitcoin whose value's declining, but all cryptocurrencies. Cryptocurrency type of bitcoin's still very phenomenal and has a very fast movement from rising to falling to the lowest level. As you know, the increase in bitcoin prices's unpredictable. Now, let the price of bitcoin go down so that new investors such as students and housewives can buy bitcoin and maybe therefore the value will grow slowly.
Bitcoin is down and down. There is no growth for the last 8 months. When there is no change in the price from 8 months, it will drop its value in the market. The same is here with bitcoin. People do not trust bitcoin anymore. They want to convert their investment to Altcoin because Altcoin are better than bitcoin. But in the long run bitcoin will recover its position back.
