Q&A

• How have Bitcoin's market behaviors changed compared to the past? 📈

  Bitcoin's market behavior reveals that while it may not experience drastic price drops, the corrections now last longer than in previous years. Corrections take several months instead of weeks, and subsequent rallies tend to be less significant. However, there are predictions that Bitcoin could see a rally from June to November, with expectations for highs in November.

• What concerns exist regarding altcoins in the current market? 🔍

  The concerns around altcoins center on their underperformance and the impact of market liquidity. Predictions indicate that many altcoins may not see a rally anytime soon, leading to consideration of the individual performance of altcoins before investment.

• Why are major altcoins like Ethereum seeing significant declines? 📉

  Despite Ethereum having strong fundamentals and a robust ecosystem, its token value is declining due to a disconnect between the protocol's underlying value and market performance. Excessive issuance of tokens without corresponding demand and competition from other projects have contributed to this decline.

• What are the implications of current central bank policies on the crypto market? 🏦

  Current central bank policies are limiting the strength of the ongoing bull market in cryptocurrencies. The Federal Reserve is maintaining a tight monetary stance and is not positioned to initiate quantitative easing until a significant financial crisis occurs, which could lead to aggressive money printing.

• What is the outlook for Bitcoin and altcoins in the near future? 🔍

  The outlook suggests that while Bitcoin may see a potential price increase, altcoins are likely to struggle. A correction lasting 2-3 months is anticipated with a notable low around March. Bitcoin's price might peak around $150k, but should not exceed $200k during this current bull market.

• How does Bitcoin's performance compare to altcoins? 📉

  Currently, Bitcoin is outperforming altcoins, which are experiencing underwhelming performance. Predictions suggest that Bitcoin could reach new highs by October, while altcoins are expected to lag behind due to weak liquidity and overall market conditions.

• Why is liquidity important in the crypto market? 💡

  Liquidity is crucial as it affects traders' ability to buy or sell assets without causing drastic price changes. A decline in liquidity can lead to slower market growth and increased volatility. Juan notes that this decline in liquidity began before Trump's victory and correlates with potential future market corrections.

• What are the current trends in the cryptocurrency market? 📈

  The current cryptocurrency market shows a bullish sentiment following Trump's election victory.
