Liftoff: Bitcoin Down 22% From its All-Time High. Is This a Buying Opportunity?
Bitcoin is trading at $33,000 at the time of publication. This is down 22% from the recent all-time high of around $42,000. Should we be worried?
No, we should not be worried. In fact, it’s healthy to see pullbacks in a bull market.
For some historical context, Bitcoin rose from $1,000 to $20,000 in 2017, and during that run, we saw five ~30% pullbacks. Buying during those pullbacks turned out to be wise moves.
Swan customers have been buying this dip in earnest 💪
We’ve noticed that any time the Bitcoin price drops by 5 — 10%, existing Swan customers log into their dashboard and make on-time buys. In fact, our biggest volume days are when the price dips 🙂
As a reminder, our new “buy instantly” feature is available for all Swan Customers.
Swan customers aren’t the only ones buying this dip…
In fact, we’re seeing increased institutional investors buying Bitcoin like never before.
