Cautious Outlook on Bitcoin

The price of Bitcoin has dropped to its recent lows. Bitcoin has fallen below $39,000 due to recent selling pressure. Jim Cramer, anchor of CNBC show Mad Money, has recently tweeted his cautious attitude on Bitcoin. Cramer called it a “tough own” and expressed skepticism about Bitcoin’s capacity to recover.

Coinciding with the launch of spot ETFs, Cramer voiced a cautious outlook on Bitcoin. As a result of this drop, many are rethinking their positive predictions for Bitcoin’s future, and Cramer’s latest post reflects this change in attitude.
