Traders predict Bitcoin will fall to $55k and Ethereum to $1,500, as both drop over 20% in June


According to the Myriad prediction market, traders expect Bitcoin to fall to $55,000 on Thursday and Ethereum to $1,500, with probabilities of 77% and 88% respectively.
Bitcoin has fallen to $59,511 — down 23% this month and 1% in the past 24 hours — while Ethereum has fallen to $1,576, down 25% in June and 2.6% in the day.
The sell-off has heightened concerns about Bitcoin treasury company Strategy (MSTR), whose stock price has plummeted 45% this month.
Its preferred stock issuance STRC fell 22% in June, to around $77.
According to Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan, STRC trading in $70s is driving short-term Bitcoin pressure, with the market worried that Strategy may be forced to sell holdings.

Strategy preferred stocks have all crashed, the chain reaction of institutional deleveraging has just begun, don't rush to buy the dip.

Myriad, that probability is a bit scary—88% for ETH to go to 1500, and the shorts are celebrating like crazy.

MSTR’s leverage play really is on another level—when STRF falls into the low 70s, it directly becomes a source of Bitcoin selling pressure. Hougan is right.

June is down 20%+—will July bounce into a V-shaped recovery, or will it keep probing for lower lows? I lean toward waiting and seeing.
