“The fundamentals have not changed. A large portion of the crypto market value is reflective of the real innovations happening around the world. Although investor confidence will sometimes falter, long term growth across the market will continue if you zoom out far enough. I’m very bullish for 2018.”
“In recent months, volatility masked the rising average intrinsic value of the top coins gained during the 4Q17 boom. All it took was a few events like Cambridge Analytica and an FBI raid to spur reversion to the (rising) mean. Advances like Lightning Network and other second layer tech will just keep those intrinsic value gains coming.”
However, Shidan Gouran seems skeptical about the cryptocurrencies rallying up.
“The recent upward swing in cryptocurrencies is an apparent symptom of tax season,” says Gouran. “It all follows a pretty logical pattern; people got their paychecks for the end of March, paid their bills, and realized they would need to have a certain amount of funds handy to pay their taxes – which many crypto traders will owe. If they’ll come up short, they need to sell off some of their cryptocurrencies to pay their taxes.
Hence, the big drop at the beginning of April, which was likely because of an excess of supply. Now that we’re less than a week away from the April 17th deadline for US taxes, most people will know if they’re getting a refund (or may even have gotten it already).“
