Yeah, the price will drop further and we will see it reach to a bottom. So, being in the long futures right now would be a bad idea and anyone who does it will just watch their money evaporate because the price will go down and liquidate all your long futures. You can leverage as much as you want, you can margin it as much as you want but in the end you are going to lose it all. We need to make sure that it is not going to end anytime soon, so we should keep staying away from longs for now.
Price will move unpredictably as it can move up or down in a way most of market participants can not predict accurately. The most important fact of the market is it usually moves oppositely with common predictions and expectations of the crowd. If we mostly think of a bull run, the market will move down, and if we mostly think like the bear market bottom is here, price will fall down more and deeper.
In this volatile and unpredictable market, don't leverage your initial capital and take too much risk, your positions if leveraged greedily and unsafely will very likely be liquidated. Liquidations will make market makers and exchanges richer while gamblers in this market will become poorer, even be bankrupted.
Lastly but very important, bear market is most terrible and sensitive time for centralized exchanges and people who consider accounts on CEX as their wallets, as these exchanges can be bankrupted, died or do their scam exits.
Events made you scare about custodial wallets, centralized exchanges.Cryptocurrency exchange graveyard.Around the bear market, it's time to withdraw all your fund to your non custodial wallets because black swan events like Terra, FTX will be possibly appear again.
