Has this week been just a prolonged dead cat bounce?


That’s what some in the cryptoverse are saying, as BTC’s latest retraction paints the whole town red:

For those uninitiated, a 'dead cat bounce' is used to refer to a temporary recovery from a prolonged decline or a bear market, which is then followed by the continuation of the downtrend.


Given BTC’s ~7% dip over the past 24 hours, some believe we’re now officially in the second leg of a downtrend:

Safe to say that both bulls and bears have been well represented in today’s price discussions.
