Looking at the trend, Amsterdam-based popular cryptocurrency analyst Michaël van de Poppe believes that the price of Bitcoin can now stabilize following the decline.
He tweeted, "Bottom is in."
He also tweeted, saying, "If you're scared to buy now, that's the moment to buy. The market just made a correction of 38% on Bitcoin. Historically, one of the best moments to say; Hey, get me some of that. Don't listen to your emotions. Don't sell. Be contrarian."
Last month, he mentioned that he is expecting a "bull cycle" for Bitcoin to continue until April or May of 2022.
He said that Bitcoin would continue towards the all-time high region if it breaks above the $64,000 range.
