Bitcoin may become an unwitting participant in the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine

This image is no longer relevant

Bitcoin may become an unwitting participant in the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine. Bitcoin managed to gain a foothold at the important support level of $37,000, which is a key pivot zone for it.

However, the growing panic can lead to its decline. There are more and more pessimistic sentiments and forecasts of a fall to $30,000, or even a collapse up to $18,000.

Well-known cryptanalyst Jose Maria Rodriguez believes that the most important milestone of support is at the turn of $ 32,850, if bitcoin falls below this zone, it will already be the moment of no return.

The upcoming inflation, as well as the crisis in Russia and Ukraine, can serve as a huge catalyst for the rapid decline of bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency market.

Constant panic moods and fluctuations of bad and good news make it difficult to trade on the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin has fallen below $40,000, and this makes it even more vulnerable and unprotected from various negative fundamental news.

Despite the fact that Ukraine has legalized bitcoin, Russia also intends to legalize the entire cryptocurrency market, a bitcoin ETF of the well-known investment company Fidelity was launched in Europe, which will help investors invest cryptocurrency funds, but all these positive factors did not affect the growth of the cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin will remain flat until the situation with military operations clears up and passions settle down. It will continue to remain an unwitting participant in hostilities, remaining a hypervolate asset for investing its funds.

Wall Street investors are already expecting huge drawdowns in both the cryptocurrency and stock markets due to the protracted conflict. As soon as the panic subsides and the conflict de-escalates, then the forecasts for the long will recover again and there will be bullish sentiment.

Now it is the diamond hands of the holders that will be checked, whether they will be able to keep bitcoin in such dangerous conditions. The altcoin market also lost billions of dollars after bitcoin and almost sank by at least 5-10%.
