More than a third of US crypto traders report cutting daily expenses and delaying major purchases as unrealized losses weigh on household finances. The recent crypto market downturn has forced more than one in three crypto traders to cut everyday spending, according to a new survey by CEX.IO. The survey, conducted among 1,100 US-based active CEX.IO users, shows the current market slump is straining household finances, though it remains less severe than 2022, when Bitcoin fell by roughly 75% from its peak.

In this latest interview, Rastani revisits his previous outlook and explains why his view has shifted as price action unfolded. While Bitcoin managed a short-term recovery earlier this year, he argues that the structure of the recent bounce is not yet convincing enough to signal a sustained uptrend. In fact, he warns that the probability still favors another move lower, potentially below the $60,000 level, before a more meaningful bottom forms. Read more
