BTC below $90K: $1B Liquidations — dip to buy?

[superman184]

BTC collapsed below $90K  ($89K now), $1B+ liquidations (92% longs) due to Trump's tariffs and geopolitics. The market has lost $150B, gold is rising.
But Strategy (MSTR) just bought 22K BTC for $2.1B, their biggest purchase in months. Fear & Greed in the fear zone.

Every dip is an opportunity to accumulate more bitcoin. You don't need to wait for the bottom line of the dip before you buy if not, you might end up not buying because it's difficult to know the bottom line of the dip. No one knows when the price will dip below 80k, if you have the money buy now since there is no much difference or are you planning to buy 1btc.

Maybe depends on the situation since there are negative situation that can push more the price to dip more. If there's hot issues happen maybe there's some possibilities that we can see more dumps.

But if I am thinking about long term? Well I will not wait for that situation and will just continue to catch dips rather than engage on unsure waiting situation. Since this could lead on failure to accumulate, they might get afraid to place for buy orders for thinking that they can still wait for another round of price dipping.

Hard to expect that below $80k would come and they might just waste their time if they keep waiting for that possibilities.

I think you have a clear answer in your post. Like you said, Bitcoin dumped to 89k, and at the same time you mentioned that Strategy bought another 2.1B worth of Bitcoin, so from that, what do you get from this? Well, if you would ask me the same thing, then I would say bitcoin is still bullish and is in an accumulation zone where I believe that an opportunity seeker should accumulate more coins in his net holding. If his financial condition allows him to do so without any problem, then one should not miss this opportunity. DYOR!

Other than this, These political or any other affairs no doubt disturbing the market sentiment for now or short period of time but i won't stay for loner period of time and i believe that the market will recover back soon in the coming days. This is my point of view on this. What do you think about this? DYOR

BTC collapsed below $90K

It was already lower than $89k last week ?

This is nothing new, its happened hundreds of times previously through the years to various types of
political, financial and crypto news. When I see these threads I go - meh and I certainly dont
panic or suffer from FUD.

Fear & Greed in the fear zone.

I have seen the market in the FEAR zone before for weeks at a time.

Could br both but the reality is nobody is going to know for sure

[Aanuoluwatofunmi]

If we can have bitcoin few days ago at $97,000 then there is nothing stopping us from having it back or even beyond anytime soon, since we are already gone passed the $89,000 which we have strong support now over, so i wouldn't doubt how possible we can easily achieve having $100,000 anytime in this month, all we may want is to stay positioned till the market make the second and third attempt and break the resistance.

[Itz-prisigold]

Honestly, I was not really surprised at all by this dump. BTC probably was gonna dump below $90K at some point. A bunch of people had positions long. When the tariff and geopolitics news came out everyone got scared. $1B of liquidations may sound really bad, but it just shows how desperate everyone was to get on this trade.

What actually makes me feel more comfortable is MSTR buying 22K BTC at these prices. You don’t spend $2.1B just to think that bitcoin is over. It is more like someone taking the fears of the market than panicking. The fear and greed index shows this sentiment pretty much shifted.

Is it possible that we see BTC drop to $85 or even $80K? My answer will be Yes, it is very possible, especially with how the macro looks. However, for me, this is more of a buy the dip market than sell. I would rather accumulate than have to worry to buy at the perfect time. All in all, I see this more as a reset not a collapse, the weak hands are starting to get shook out and the holders are stacking their bags.

Why not? smart investors are going to take advantage of this situation and accumulate just like what Michael Saylor did yesterday or the other day if I'm not mistaken. But there are some who wanted to wait for lowest low to happen. But it's like a guessing game for them as they know what will be the lowest low and when it's going to happen. Maybe it won't, so it's like a gamble.

But the best weapons against this kind of volatility is obviously the DCA method. This method removes this guessing game, you just buy and grind every week or even every month and invest money that you can afford without forcing you to involved our emotions.

Each investor has specific plans. Some are expecting the price to drop further. Those ones would not accumulate now because the price is still too high for them to buy. Others might see it as an opportunity since the price has dropped within their buying price. There is another set who don't care about the current price or further decline because they are accumulating at different prices using DCA.

If Trump goes on to impose tariffs on these European nations, there might be retaliation. This situation would cause more global economic problems, which would lead to further declines in prices. However, in a situation where these tariffs are suspended, the Bitcoin market is likely to recover.

Every DIP present a good buying opportunity for an investor. from from $85k to $95k are almost like same region and so, whatever happens at both region, if you decides to buy you can buy and if you decide to sell you can d same. At the end, remaining invested throughout all the point we are currently at is the best thing that gives you the best investment journey such that whatever happens in the process of your investment does not affects you really much  because either at the point of liquidation or bull, you still remain invested by still accumulating your bitcoin through your DCA method.

[Upgrade00]

Everytime is a good time to buy, but if you are going to make a lump purchase and under no pressure you can wait a couple of months to see if the price comes lower. You can't predict the short term movements like what the price would be at the end of the month but you can attempt to predict a timeframe for when the market could become bearish.

You can alternatively DCA now and build your portfolio slowly.

We're very close to bottoming out but aren't certain when that's  going to be. Secondly,  I doubt that Bitcoin has made the last low at 80k before the final push up, because right when Bitcoin broke $110k, that signaled a move to 80k. The same signal also gave me a $66k-$52k price target as the reversal zone for the price. From the fundamental analysis perspective, everything is quite fine, but technically it isn't fully priced in on the chart that the market is ready to reverse but still shows some liquidity trapped in around that $66k zone. The last bear market, when Bitcoin hit 15k, the market fell, and that's precisely what I'm expecting the moment Bitcoin sees a bottom.

How many times are we going to be making this prediction every now and then? Does it really change anything?

Even with positive green candles, there must be slight correction. As far as you're DCAing, you don't have to worry much about price devaluation because you'll see every down movements as an opportunity for you to level up your portfolio. If the market dip more to around 80k, you continue to be consistent with your DCA. Whatever happens, you end up with more coins. If you want to wait until it gets to 80k, the market might make a U turn and you'll miss the chance to buy. So how long are you willing to wait?

BTC collapsing below $90K is not something new, we've stayed at $80K+ for long before eventually entering $90K, it is so normal to fall back. $80K from an ATH of $126K, isn't it a good dip already to buy? Now is a good time to buy Bitcoin, it may be the start of a bearish season, but still profitable if invest now, or choose to wait if the price will fall further.

I just wonder why anyone will panic with the current dip ever since I realized that Bitcoin could either go up or come down whenever there is a dip I only smiles, of course is an added advantage for anyone buying Bitcoin now, I will not not advise waiting for a further dip since no one can actually be certain about it dipping further and what will make the person to be satisfied if at all dip again or further, buying right away is always much preferable rather than waiting, every time is always a good time to buy provided it is all planned for a long term journey.

Every dip is an opportunity to accumulate more bitcoin. You don't need to wait for the bottom line of the dip before you buy if not, you might end up not buying because it's difficult to know the bottom line of the dip. No one knows when the price will dip below 80k, if you have the money buy now since there is no much difference or are you planning to buy 1btc.

I used to believe this years ago, but this time, it's different, and there's a chance that this announcement by Trump can be the trigger towards a more bearish movement. Of course, I might be wrong as well same as what you're saying.

Every dip is an opportunity? What if it goes down even more? What if it goes down to $70,000? Or $60,000? Or even $50,000. If you're a long-term holder then yes you aren't affected because what matters for you is the next 3-4 years, but not all investors think like that, and there are some out there that are buying Bitcoin just for them to hold for short term (like days to weeks to months).

Can we please not romanticize this sentence because not every dip is an opportunity. We need confirmations that the market is reversing after this dump. Don't buy whenever you see the market dropped. Buy whenever there's confirmations.

[Iranus]

I just wonder why anyone will panic with the current dip ever since I realized that Bitcoin could either go up or come down whenever there is a dip I only smiles, of course is an added advantage for anyone buying Bitcoin now,

This is a familiar loop of the market. There are alway people who panic when prices fall, and many who will regret it whenever prices rise. Because if everyone bought together when prices fell and sold together when prices rose, the market would not have survived until now

I will not not advise waiting for a further dip since no one can actually be certain about it dipping further and what will make the person to be satisfied if at all dip again or further, buying right away is always much preferable rather than waiting, every time is always a good time to buy provided it is all planned for a long term journey.

Many newbie also rushed to buy Bitcoin when the price was above $100k or $126k simply because they followed other people's advice. A similar reason is that they were afraid price will not drop much further and are afraid of missing out. So given the current uncertain market conditions, I will not provide financial advice. They should decide for themselves

MSTR continues to buy and is a very bold corporate holding company. Saylor is a very talented and bold person who has made important predictions about Bitcoin and I think that even if some of his predictions do not match reality, his ideas will come true in the future.

There are many events happening in the world politics that are affecting the world economy in many ways. Trump's policies and oil trade strategy will change the world trade situation and the Greenland dispute with the EU could be bloody. But the price of Bitcoin is unlikely to drop significantly. But if it goes into a correction phase, I think it will probably not go below $75k. I think the possibility of Bitcoin reaching $200k by the end of this year is very strong.

[Wiwo]

Buy buy and buy once you see such a dip regardless of the news surrounding it, bitcoin is an asset that recover very quickly once the price take a sharp dip such as this one, we shouldn't allow fears to let us miss such a good entry price mostly especially those that have the spare cash to invest into bitcoin or open a long position.

Sure thing to know is that for every sharp market dip, we should expect larg liquidation in the future market,  we know that already.

We shouldn't say the market collapse since we are already seeing alot of recovering and no one can say for sure which direction it will take next but all point's to some positive market indications for those that bought at the dip.
