Analyst Justin Bennett allows the possibility of the bitcoin rate to fall to $8500

⬇️Crypto analyst and trader Justin Bennett warned that bitcoin rate may collapse, because the cryptocurrency market is affected by several macroeconomic factors. Among them, the analyst attributed the record inflation in the US for 40 years, tough measures by the Federal Reserve System (Fed) to combat it, the fall in the value of stocks and the global recession. According to him, a bear flag forming on the BTC price chart indicates a possible decline to the ~$8 500 mark.
