Bitcoin Headed for $70K? Hedge Fund Manager Warns of More Downside!

Bitcoin’s recent sell-off may not be over yet, according to Quinn Thompson, founder of Lekker Capital. The hedge fund manager predicts that BTC could drop to $70,000 by the end of March, urging investors to exercise caution.

Why Is Bitcoin Under Pressure?

📉 Stock Market Turmoil: The Nasdaq fell 7%, while Nvidia (NVDA) tumbled 5%, triggering panic across financial markets. Bitcoin, often correlated with tech stocks, was dragged down alongside equities.
📉 Meme Coin Bubble Burst: The recent meme coin hype crash has added downward pressure on the broader crypto market.
📉 Federal Reserve’s Stance: With inflation data coming in hotter than expected, the Fed is unlikely to cut interest rates soon, keeping risk assets like BTC under pressure.

70K – The Key Level to Watch

Thompson believes that Bitcoin's inability to rally despite positive news is a warning sign. He highlights $70,000 as a critical support level, warning that BTC could dip to that mark before finding stability.

“Investors should remember that bear markets are always possible, and in this environment, extreme caution is necessary.” – Thompson

With macroeconomic headwinds piling up, Bitcoin's next few weeks could be crucial. If selling pressure persists, a deeper correction may be on the horizon.
