What is Going on with BITF?
The rising threat of the Omicron variant along with inflation has caused the global cryptocurrency market to crash. The fall of major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum also led meme coins like Dogecoin on a downtrend.
While the major reason for this downtrend in the crypto market is investors’ opting for safer investment options in these uncertain times, market corrections also is a reason. As, bitcoin gained over 60% in the period between September-November, reaching its all-time-high (ATH) of $69,000. Hence, this led the currency to enter market corrections due to profit-booking.
Due to the uncertain situation in the crypto market, BITF stock lost over 23% in the past five trading sessions alone. Moreover, the stock has gone down by 25.77% in the past month, while it has gained 218.42% year to date. The stock seems to be rebounding as hopes for bitcoin reclaiming its ATH by the year-end, emerge.
