Bitcoin has rallied strongly since the $3,700 lows established in March. From the bottom of the crash, the cryptocurrency is now up just shy of 150%.<\/p>\n

Although this upswing has convinced many in the industry that the bear market is over, some beg to differ. Prominent analysts and commentators say that the cryptocurrency has a chance at retesting the $3,000s.<\/p>\n

Backing this prediction, they cite simple technical factors and the looming specter of a deeper recession in the global economy.<\/p>\n

Bitcoin Poised to Plunge Towards $3,000s<\/h2>\n

Earlier this year, a prominent trader called for Bitcoin to fall to the $3,000s and for XRP to reach $0.11.\u00a0At the time, this call was laughed off, as the cryptocurrency market was surging higher.<\/p>\n

The trader has since been proven correct as Bitcoin, XRP, and other cryptocurrencies took a nosedive in March due to a worsening global economy.<\/p>\n

While BTC has since recovered, the same trader still expects Bitcoin to correct even lower.<\/p>\n

He indicated in the chart below<\/a> that he still sees a scenario where the leading crypto falls to $2,000, and maybe even as low as $1,000.<\/p>\n

The calls for an extension to the Bitcoin bear market have been echoed by Ross Ulbricht.<\/p>\n

Ulbricht is a very early cryptocurrency adopter that is known for running the Silk Road marketplace.<\/p>\n

He explained in a Medium post titled \u201cBitcoin by Ross #9: A Strong Signal for Lower Prices\u201d<\/a> that Elliot Wave analysis suggests BTC is in the second phase of a multi-year bear market.<\/p>\n
