Our short-term price target of 37 500 USD was reached just recently. Therefore, we would like to update our thoughts and change our medium-term price target of 35 000 USD to a short-term price target. Subsequently, we would set a new medium-term price target of 32 500 USD. We continue to maintain a bearish stance on the overall cryptocurrency market as we expect deleveraging to continue. Our view is supported by a combination of bearish technical and fundamental factors. We will pay close attention to the FED meeting and the upcoming rate hike during the current week. We expect hiking rates to have a negative impact on the price of Bitcoin .
