The world’s largest cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, has fallen 54 percent since the new year and had its worst month ever. Since November, the price drop has reached 70 percent.
Crypto expert Ian Harnett is making a bleak prediction for the future of the world’s largest cryptocurrency.
Harnett, director of investment at Absolute Strategy Research, told CNBC on Wednesday of this week that he believes Bitcoin is about to continue into the last fall.
He believes that Bitcoin is likely to drop to a low of $13,000, which corresponds to a drop of more than 35 percent from current levels.
– It really is a fluidity game. From our point of view, Harnett said, Bitcoin is neither a currency nor a commodity, and it is certainly not something of value.
