Bitcoin Death Cross 2022: What You Need To Know About The Deadly Signal
All across crypto, fear is in the air. Not only is the market shaken from the recent downtrend, but there’s an extra layer of doom and gloom due to an impending “death cross” in Bitcoin.
Learn all about the ominous sounding crossover of two commonly watched moving averages, what the signal could mean, and how Bitcoin price has reacted in the past.

The signal tells investors that the asset’s growth has slowed and is showing potential of a bear trend. Long-term price depreciation is possible. However, in Bitcoin, things don’t always behave the way they should.

Yfir átta heildardauðakrossa í fyrsta dulritunargjaldmiðlinum, er meðalfallið innan mánaðar frá krossinum aðeins 25% (h/t Dan í gegnum TonyTradesBTC) – lítið miðað við dulritunarstaðla.
The opposite signal, golden crosses, also don’t always have a positive impact, either. In fact, Bitcoin price is lower now today than it was when the last golden cross triggered.

Áður en nautið braust út árið 2020 voru tveir dauðakrossar og tveir gylltir krossar. Einn athyglisverður dauðakross í október 2019 leiddi til 42% dælu daginn áður.
Þrátt fyrir styrkinn var verðaðgerðum hafnað aftur niður í nýjar lægðir, aðeins til gullna krossins, dauðakrosssins, svo gullna krossins aftur. Á undan hinu sögufræga nautahlaupi 2016-2017 var líka svipað falsað – sýnt í græna kassanum.

Prior to the 2014-2015 bear market, however, there was a death cross, golden cross, back into a death cross fakeout that closely mimics the situation brewing in Bitcoin right now in the red box.
Another such example could result in a renewed bear phase. But the data otherwise shows that the “death cross” is not a reaper you need to fear.
How will #Bitcoin . React to the “death cross”
