After struggling to surpass $20,000 since September, Bitcoin price holds support at $16.5K following the collapse of FTX crypto exchange. The crypto market seems to slowly decouple from the U.S. stock market as crypto price remains under pressure. Mathematical models and veteran analysts predict Bitcoin’s (BTC) bottom near $14,000.

He noted that people wanted to buy Bitcoin under $20,000, but people are now selling Bitcoin at loss following the collapse of FTX.
