Bitcoin's Recent Price Movements

Bitcoin has experienced a significant price drop, falling from a recent high of $108,000 to around $95,000. This volatility is attributed to various factors, including a Federal Reserve meeting, stock market dynamics, and political shifts with the transition from the Biden administration to Trump. The discussion revolves around the possibility of this drop marking the end of a bull market, but opinions differ on whether Bitcoin has truly peaked. The altcoins are suffering even more severely, prompting concerns that the crypto market might be entering a bearish phase.
