Crypto Analyst Don’t See Bitcoin Tumbling To Realized Levels
PlanB, a popular crypto analyst, predicts that Bitcoin will not drop down to realized levels, though Bitcoin is currently under bear control.
These positive comments come amidst the flagship currency making a steep fall from 2022 highs during the start of April. At the time of reporting, Bitcoin is trading at $40,209 with a drop of 2.01% over the last 24hrs and over 40% fall from a record high of $69,000 in November.
However, Bitcoin’s realized price is marked around the $24,000 level. This realized price is an indicator that is very much important to know the worst-case scenario support level.
PlanB stated that the last time such an event occurred was in 2018 during the infamous Bitcoin Satoshi Vision (BSV) fork.
