Trader Observations: As Bitcoin's price continues to decline, trader Ali Martinez points out that this presents a unique opportunity for those looking to purchase cryptocurrencies at lower prices.

Bitcoin is currently in a correction phase, according to More Crypto Online, but there is still a chance for a rebound as the support level of $92,802 remains intact. However, if the downward trend continues, key support levels to watch are $88,650, with additional Fibonacci targets set at $85,558 and $77,874.

James Van Straten, a senior analyst at CoinDesk, mentioned that a record $4 billion in panic sales of Bitcoin to exchanges has led to liquidation cascades, enabling savvy investors to buy at discounted rates. He believes the recent 10% correction may be nearing its end.

Next Insights:

• Anthony Scaramucci suggests that a Trump victory could be seen as a remarkable political comeback, with crypto gains that followed coming three years later than expected.
