Bitcoin Falls Below $90,000 for First Time in Seven Months; Analysts See Floor Between $70,000–$85,000
Bitcoin dropped below $90,000 on Nov. 18 for the first time in seven months, falling 5.9% intraday and more than 28.7% from its cycle high, BlockBeats reports. Placeholder VC partner Chris Burniske said bull-market top characteristics have emerged and plans to re-enter when BTC retraces to $75,000 or lower. BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes projected in his blog post "Snow Forecast" that Bitcoin may probe $80,000–$85,000 before potentially reaching $200,000–$250,000 by year-end if broader risk markets collapse and monetary stimulus accelerates. Chinese analyst Ban Mu Xia forecasted a complex consolidation with an ultimate floor near $84,000, while economist Hong Hao suggested meaningful support may only appear around $70,000.
