A week after Bitcoin fell below $19,000, perceptions of the cryptocurrency market as a whole continue to deteriorate. Compared to conventional currencies, alternative currencies face much more significant daily losses. XRP, ADA, and SHIB prices have decreased by over 5%.
Price at the Halving is historically at Fair value.
Assuming Fair value doesn't move much lower, that would mean ~$40k in 18 months.#Bitcoin On-chain Value Map: pic.twitter.com/qpoxoqE8He— Root 🥕 (@therationalroot) October 9, 2022
It even hit a multi-week high north of $20,500 less than a week ago, comfortably trading around $20,000 less than a week ago. Despite exceeding forecasts, the US employment data reversed the tables and sent Bitcoin down almost $1000.
Price Trends for Bitcoin
As a result, bitcoin lost all of its value, around $19,000–$20,000, over the weekend. On Monday, the scene stayed unchanged, but only a short while ago, BTC began to decline once again. It fell below $19,000 this time, setting an 8-day low.
👑Many people have 16k expectations for #bitcoin. I don't think it will go down to that price. And I think it will turn a lot of things upside down. Sometimes the analysis board doesn't work, a positive news changes everything.💹#BTC #ETH #BSCGems #ETHW #PinkSale #Fairlaunch pic.twitter.com/6hzqm7ffPP

Since then, bitcoin has gained some ground and crossed that mark. The company still has a nearly 40% market share over its alternatives, despite its declining valuation to $365 billion.
With #Bitcoin, #Ethereum, and most #altcoins ticking down slightly Monday, the crowd's #bearish outlook continues to be evident. Green bars indicate more #FUD than usual toward an asset, and red bars indicate more #FOMO. pic.twitter.com/fAC4bZdEFc

After posting the best performance last week, Ripple has now turned red. The XRP price hovered over $0.50 yesterday but fell 5.5% over the next 24 hours. There has been a comparable drop in Cardano’s and Shiba Inu’s prices, which are now under $0.4 and $0.000001, respectively.
With the price of Ethereum falling by almost 2%, it now trades below $1,300. Likewise, a decrease of 1.3% has been recorded in Binance Coin, which currently stands at $270.
Avalanche, Solana, Dogecoin, Polkadot, MATIC, and Tron are all red among the larger-cap alts. The most significant drop has been in Ethereum Classic, which has dropped by roughly 10% in a single day. In the past week, the crypto market value has lost $30 billion on average daily, and now it is worth $920 billion.
