Santana also declared that the current Bitcoin price action confirms that there is no bullish momentum. He attributed this lack of momentum to muted whale activities, highlighting that there are currently no buyers or buying volume at the current market level.


Due to these bearish conditions, Santana has predicted that Bitcoin could end up crashingto $35,720, representing a massive 46.68% decrease to new lows. This also means that Bitcoin’s price will drop by almost half, triggering panic and fear amongst retail and whale investors.


Contrary to Santana’s bearish analysis, the price of Bitcoinis up by 5.56% and trading at $68,203, according to CoinMarketCap. The cryptocurrency is gradually increasing to reach the $70,000 mark, driven by positive changes in market sentiment and the historically bullish Q4.  


Although Santana has stayed firm in his bearish predictions of Bitcoindue to limited buying power, the analyst has also received severe backlash from various crypto community members. One member criticized Santana’s bearish Bitcoin prediction, suggesting that there were flaws in his analysis. Others accused the analyst of attempting to manipulate investors by using a Bitcoin chart from a Blofin exchange, which typically has lower transaction activity.  Bitcoin Market Manipulation And Bears


Despite the heat from crypto members, Santana believes that market manipulationhas led to the current bearish price action in Bitcoin. The analyst highlights that Bitcoin’s price can be artificially manipulated by large holders or so-called Whales.  Related Reading FLOKI Breaks Out Of Downtrend: Analyst Predicts 200% Rally To New All-Time High 1 day ago


He stated that these whales can push the price of Bitcoin uphoping that retail investors will dive into the market and buy, ultimately triggering a bullish wave. According to Santana, if there are no genuine Bitcoin buyers, the alleged manipulation could backfire, possibly leading to losses for said market manipulators. 


Santana has revealed that retail investors are no longer easily fooled into buying Bitcoin at the top, showing more caution due to previous cycles of manipulation and hype. He also disclosed that buyers are not swayed by exaggerated predictions of substantial future gains by analysts, claiming that Bitcoin could reach $3,000,000.  BTC price falls below $68,000 | Source: BTCUSD on Tradingview.com Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com
