Analysts say Bitcoin could drop to $50,000, but strong economic conditions and a strong “buy the dip” mindset will likely help BTC’s price bounce back quickly.Bitcoin dropped to $53,600 on Coinbase on July 5, the lowest price since February. Analysts worry that the worst is yet to come.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/530e249c5d0f48948fd8d627e1703481.png" /><h3 id="analysts-warn-of-further-bitcoin-decline-amid-market-fears">Analysts Warn of Further Bitcoin Decline Amid Market Fears</h3>Bitcoin (BTC) briefly dropped to $53,600 on Coinbase on July 5 before leveling out to $54,122 at the time of publication, according to TradingView data. eToro market analyst Josh Gilbert attributed much of the sell-off to fears surrounding Mt. Gox creditor repayments, which will release around $8 billion worth of BTC into the market in July.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/e49296188bc94c75942f453f2b9025f0.webp" />Bitcoin fell as low as $53,600 on Coinbase on July 5. Source: TradingViewFollowing this sudden dip, Gilbert expects to see worsening price action for Bitcoin in the coming days. “The news flow is far more bearish than bullish right now, and the <a href="https://cryptosheadlines.com/arbitrum-arb-faces-potential-1-price-drop-as-investors-sell/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">selling activity we’re seeing is quite clearly unsettling investors</a>, which often drives more selling,” Gilbert said. “It wouldn’t surprise me to see the asset test $50,000 within the next week, but that will be a key psychological level. There will be weakness in the short term until we receive a catalyst to drive the price higher, and that might come in the form of investors ‘buying the dip’ or an <a href="https://cryptosheadlines.com/eth-etf-approval-close-jim-cramer/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">ETH ETF approval</a> to improve sentiment,” he added.Pav Hundal said, “A large amount of Bitcoin is about to hit a market that’s already showing little interest. While long-term macro conditions are still positive, in the short term, we might test $50,000 and possibly go lower. Right now, $52,000 is a crucial level where bears and bulls are battling.”<a href="https://cryptosheadlines.com/shiba-inu-spot-etf-expected-after-regulated-shib-futures-launch-expert/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Also Read: Shiba Inu Spot ETF Expected After Regulated Shib Futures Launch: Expert</a>Analysts from 10x Research also predicted a continued dip that could see the price of Bitcoin fall to as low as $50,000 in the coming weeks. They warned that selling “could accelerate as support gets broken and sellers scramble to find liquidity.”<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/530e249c5d0f48948fd8d627e1703481.png" /><h3 id="reasons-for-long-term-optimism-in-the-crypto-market">Reasons for Long-Term Optimism in the Crypto Market</h3>Despite the short-term bearish outlook, Josh Gilbert from eToro believes there are reasons for investors to remain bullish in the long term.“We look to catalysts such as the <a href="https://cryptosheadlines.com/first-time-in-years-federal-reserve-raises-fed-funds-rate-above-5/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Federal Reserve cutting interest rates</a> in September, with the potential for another cut in December to lift prices,” Gilbert said.He also mentioned that the full acceptance of an Ethereum ETF by the SEC, with a July launch date, would be a significant boost for the crypto market.<img src="https://academy-public.coinmarketcap.com/optimized-uploads/423adfcf4d4f475e9ea5bb7b99ba22c0.png" />Important: Please note that this article is only meant to provide information and should not be taken as legal, tax, investment, financial, or any other type of advice.
