Santiment analytics provider has reported good news. The data says that, despite the 15 percent decline, Bitcoin is bouncing back on a trading volume that is rising quickly across exchanges.
At press time, Bitcoin has recovered to the $35,500 area.
The CryptoQuant CEO, Ki Young Ju, believes that the correction took place due to high selling pressure from Bitcoin miners.
Besides, according to data from Bybt, a liquidation of a whopping $2.4 billion worth of Bitcoin, ETH and other cryptocurrencies also contributed to Bitcoin's sharp move south.
