Crypto Analysts: 2019 May Be A Year Of Bitcoin Accumulation

Over the past day, the crypto market recovered from its previous position and reached $123 billion as Bitcoin also managed to avoid another drop below the $3,600 mark. In the latest crypto news, we take a look at some analysis from multiple crypto technical analysts.

Some analysts think that because of the high sell-off intensity in the previous period, there is a strong chance for the price of BTC and other altcoins to drop even further below their support levels in the short-term. Also, they believe that Bitcoin will even decline as low as $3,100 by the end of the bear market before recovering by the end of 2019.

Crypto technical analyst Eric Thies said that Bitcoin might start a strong movement upwards by the end of 2019:

 “Similar to 2015, 2019 may be the year of accumulation.’’

Another crypto researcher Willy Woo said that while a crash of bitcoin to $3,122 could lead to an increase in volume, it won’t show signs of starting of the accumulation period. He pointed out:

‘’Despite the technical setup that suggests bullishness is possible, there’s not a lot on-chain volume to fuel a prolonged up move. What we saw in the last 7 weeks was a spike of on-chain volume driven by volatility, coins moving to exchanges to trade. The initial volume spike false signalled a faster detox and an earlier end to the bear market, but in fact it was a volatility side effect. That move from $6k to $3k created immense trade volume, but it was in no way a signal that accumulation volume had begun.’’

Until evidence for the accumulation of crypto assets shows up, there are still expectations of high volatility levels.
