Before I go in details with my opinion as to why I believe Bitcoin doesn’t need him (or anyone else of his kin, for that matter) and if it does – it means it failed, I’m going to give a short...

This collapse, catalyzed by Elon Musk’s tweets criticizing Bitcoin’s energy consumption, was exacerbated by several factors, including China, reiterating its anti-Bitcoin stance, a large short position on Bitfinex, and the necessity of a general correction in the overbought crypto space.

The enhanced volatility in the crypto market continues to harm leveraged traders as the liquidations in the past 24 hours are more than $8 billion. Naturally, roughly 90% of all liquidations came from long positions. It’s safe to say that the cryptocurrency market has seen better days. The entire capitalization saw around $900 billion evaporated in the span of a week. It all started with Elon Musk’s statement asserting that Tesla had stopped receiving bitcoin for its electric...
