Amid the current decline in the Bitcoin price, <a href="https://u.today/michael-saylor-stuns-crypto-community-with-bitcoin-wave-statement" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Michael Saylor</a>, the co-founder and chairman of MicroStrategy, has issued a message that has resonated with the crypto community. In a tweet, Saylor <a href="https://x.com/saylor/status/1832148108748230868" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">wrote</a>, "You do not sell your Bitcoin."
<blockquote>
 You do not sell your <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bitcoin?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">#Bitcoin</a>.— Michael Saylor⚡️ (@saylor) <a href="https://twitter.com/saylor/status/1832148108748230868?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">September 6, 2024</a>
</blockquote>
Saylor's message comes at a time when some investors may be tempted to sell, with the Crypto Fear and Greed index suggesting that the crypto market is in extreme fear. Given the current market sentiment, panic selling driven by fear and uncertainty may result in hasty asset liquidations, prompting Saylor's warning.
The brief gain in the cryptocurrency markets following Friday's U.S. jobs release was immediately reversed in volatile trading, bringing Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency, to its lowest level in a month.
Following the announcement of the jobs data, <a href="https://u.today/bitcoin-active-addresses-drop-cause-for-alarm" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitcoin (BTC)</a> soared above $57,000, only to reverse the gains and fall below $54,000, its lowest level since Aug. 5.
Cryptocurrencies saw mixed price action in early Saturday's trading with Bitcoin down 3% in the last 24 hours to $54,360. Several cryptocurrencies also traded in the red, with Ethereum, Dogecoin and Pepe reporting losses of nearly 4%.
The price movement sparked nearly $292 million in liquidations within the last 24 hours on crypto derivatives markets, as the volatility caught leveraged traders off guard, mostly longs expecting a further price gain, according to CoinGlass data.

According to Julio Moreno, head of Research at CryptoQuant, Bitcoin's lackluster performance might be due to a lack of demand growth. He added, "Indeed, demand is declining right now. Basically all valuation metrics are in bearish territory."
CryptoQuant CEO <a href="https://x.com/ki_young_ju/status/1832333094231404576" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ki Young Ju</a> in a tweet today noted that Coinbase's Bitcoin spot trading volume dominance has returned to pre-spot ETF levels. For the bull cycle to continue, U.S. demand needs to rebound, Ju added stating, "I expect this in Q4, but I could be wrong. We're mid-cycle and haven't hit the retail bubble yet."
According to crypto analyst Ali Martinez, "The Accumulation Trend Score is nearing 0, indicating that market participants are either distributing or not accumulating Bitcoin at the moment."
