In what has been one of the largest 24 hour market dumps this year over $30 billion has been dumped from crypto assets. Bitcoin reached the end of its bearish triangle pattern and dumped hard down to a three month low at $8,000.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Crashes 17%<\/h2>\n

Many had predicted a huge drop to long term support around $8k this week but it is still a shock to see it happen. Bitcoin had been sliding since late last week<\/a> when it dropped below five figures again and failed to recover. Bakkt was underwhelming and markets did not react though they were not expected to.<\/p>\n

The move have when BTC reached the apex of the large descending triangle that has formed since the top out in late June. The downwards momentum started to accelerate as soon as support at $9,500 was broken. Next came two almighty red candles which dumped Bitcoin back to $8,000 according to Tradingview.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This area is a massive support zone and as expected a lot of buys were triggered there resulting in the hourly closure back up at $8,600. It appears to have settled in this zone for the time being.<\/p>\n

The dump was so large that the Bitcoin bashers wasted no time on twitter. Goldbug Peter Schiff was one of the first to react calling for an even lower slide.<\/p>\n

\u201cBitcoin has finally broken below the support line of the large descending triangle it has been carving out for months. This is a very a bearish technical pattern, and it confirms that a major top has been established.\u00a0 The risk is high for a rapid decent down to $4,000 or lower!\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
