The World Cup is here, can Bitcoin really stand strong on its own?
$BTC I took a look at the data from the last Qatar World Cup and found it quite interesting.
Before the 2022 World Cup kicked off, Bitcoin experienced a massive drop, crashing to the bear market's lowest point with a decline of nearly 30%.
At that time, everyone was busy analyzing Argentina, France, Morocco—who had time to watch the candlesticks?
During the World Cup matches, there was a bit of a rebound, but after the finals, it quickly fell back to square one, followed by a long period of consolidation.
This year's World Cup is bigger than the last, stretching over 38 days, which is 10 days longer than before.
Don't underestimate these few weeks.
When a ton of cash, attention, and emotion gets sucked into the World Cup, market liquidity will definitely be affected.
Instead of fixating on the technicals and scratching your head, it’s better to pay attention to where the off-market funds are flowing.
After all, price movements aren’t driven by faith, but by real cash flow.
Even though I’m bearish in the long run, I won’t hesitate to go long in the short term if the opportunity arises.
Last night, when the king of memes said “I’m done,” the shorts were in a frenzy, but I stayed calm because a big opportunity is coming!!!
Remember this: the World Cup may not dictate the market, but it will surely drain liquidity.
And liquidity is the lifeblood of price.
Do you think Bitcoin can hold up during this World Cup? 👇
