Content adapted from this Zerohedge.com article : [Source](https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-02-09/visualizing-worst-crashes-bitcoin-history) ___ by Tyler Durden **Compared to some of the panics during the early days of bitcoin, the pioneering cryptocurrency's 60%+ slide since the beginning of the year hardly register at all.** In the nine-year history of the cryptocurrency, which introduced the "revolutionary" blockchain technology to the world, osses have been as minimal as 30% and as severe as 87% during these Bitcoin panics. And compared with some of its previous dips - like the Mt. Gox-induced selloff in February 2014 that effectively ended the firs speculative bubble in the cryptocurrency after it officially went mainstream. The latest correction took place between Dec.17 and Feb. 6, or 48 days, in which 70% of Bitcoin value was lost. However, if you look at the period between **April 10, 2013 and April 12, 2013,** Bitcoin lost **an astounding 83% of its value over a three-day period.** Talk about a panic! The point is that crashes have become relatively common throughout the cryptocurrency market, which is known for its swift volatility. It is important to turn to data and the facts in times of turmoil, rather than relying on one's emotions. Using the BitStamp Bitcoin-to-U.S.-Dollar (BTC/USD) pair, [HowMuch ][1]measured the specific highs and lows of the past crashes dating back to January 2012. In the chart below, the arrow delineates the magnitude of the crash - while the number of days is listed below: ![btc][2] As US stocks sold off again Friday, capping off the worst two-week selloff since 2009, bitcoin has climbed, as worries about a resurgence of inflation have rattled investors, **making the inherently deflationary bitcoin that much more attractive.** [1]: https://howmuch.net/articles/bitcoin-all-major-crashes [2]: https://www.zerohedge.com/sites/default/files/inline-images/2018.02.09bitcoin.JPG --- <center>**Disclaimer : Account @zer0hedge is not affiliated with ZeroHedge.com.**</center> ###### I read ZeroHedge multiple times a day to find the best articles and reformat them for Steemit.

Thanks for this review that dated back as far as 9years of cryptocurrency existence. I learnt a lot and draw inspiration of where we are going. It really encouraged and put much confident to me and helped me learn how cryptocurrency ecosystem works. I really appreciate you.

@zer0hedge. Bro After every crash bitcoin creates a higher high but does not create a lower low. Average price increase between major crashes is 46%, as such, on the next bull run, it may reach apx. $28,000 before another major crash.Im gonna guess your joking? Cause everyone and their pajeet cousin knows Tether is a ticking time bomb orders of mag bigger than the Bitconnect shitstorm. They also allow margin trading so you might wind up with your exchange deposits rehypothicated. Sucks cause Bittfinex was m fav exchange to trade on. Had by far the best buy,sell options and UI...thank you for sharing with us..

Crypto -must- crash and shortly. Reason is exchanges had to make a virtual futures crypto to represent slow moving blockchain true crypto. It was easier to take this generalized approach than try to get blockchain a to talk to blockchain b across hundreds of different technology derived crypto. Of the 'true blockchain cryptos' if you download and examine the ccminer source code you will find ALL of then derive from about 20 families of cryptographic hash functions. What exchanges sell you is futures, a representation of blockchain crypto, and completely worthless as it can be infinitely diluted like everyone discovered with tether a very smartly crafted fine print agreement on an unregulated exchange.. a. user gives them fiat. b. User trades fake futures crypto. c. Exchange refunds them tether which they typed up in a script. d. User now has forfeited any claim to their deposits. e. User was done from beginning it is an unregulated exchange for a reason like the old forex scamsters and wolf of wall streets. If IF you have the ability to withdraw from your offshore poker stars unregulated crypto exchange please do so immediately. which of them is honest and fake (Robin Hood free trading really!,) I would put down to 5%ish.

This is a big point to the critics who are always criticizing cryptocurrency. If Bitcoin lost it's value by 83% in 3 days. Then this previous dip didn't have to worry anyone. Cryptocurrency is for the strong willed.. The risk takers who are willing to accept the falling of prices. Otherwise am glad it's coming back... Time to spend some of that hefty cash on leisure activities.

This week, at least, the volatility in the stock market was much less than that in cryptos. Imagine if equities keep up these big swings....it will make the cryptoworld look rather tame. Wouldnt that be a kick in the pants for the MSM and the crypto haters?

While this particular crash may not be the biggest in terms of percentage, it's the biggest (by a long margin) with respect to the loss in absolute market value. Goes on to show how much btc grew since the last big crash.

I will have to look at a chart but it would be interesting to see what the rebound percentage was and how long it took for each of these draw downs. My gut tells me that these "crashes" result in even more powerful reversals. As for the nature of the article, it is safe to say this move was no big deal in the crypto world. It took close to two months to go down 70%. Higher levels and in a much quicker period of time were experienced throughout Bitcoin's history. I am confident we see a big bounce in BTC along with alt coins. The pullback cleared out some of the "iffy" people. I do not know the stats, but I imagine there are a number of short positions out there which could lead to big moves up as the shorts have to cover. It is always a wild ride.

Exactly! And big panics and crashes show that some people still have not fully appreciated how permanent and *here-to-stay* cryptocurrency is... People who are still warning that "Bitcoin is not a tangible asset and we should not take any more seriously than we would a lottery ticket", or that "Bitcoin is essentially a tulip flower"; are really failing to understand a core part of what the Bitcoin protocol, blockchain, and network; **_are all about_** Bitcoin only seems to get more and more solid... Now don't get me wrong; there are reasons to become wary. First of all, when we talk about "speculative bubbles"; this is absolutely correct... During the massive bull runs, it's very easy for the monetary value of Bitcoin to become unhinged from the underlying economies that have sprouted around Bitcoin (and a few other altcoins), which do help to circulate Bitcoin and maintain its value (a steady flow of supply and demand being required)... Trade is definitely what gives currency it's value, at least in a non-volatile sense... If x amount of goods are bought and sold over the internet using Bitcoin, that adds a baseline value for it... The costs of mining Bitcoin can also not be neglected. (I've heard the number $1000 used a lot for the minimum cost of mining a Bitcoin in terms of power alone)... No matter what the actual number; depending on the country; the costs of production also add as a minimum baseline safeguard for the value... So one has to really try to take as many variables as possible when it comes to Bitcoin... Yes it can be extremely volatile; yes there are short-term, medium-term and of course long-term risks to its viability and potential to keep growing... But like the article highlights, panicking really serves no purpose. One has to carefully analyze what kind of activity is really going on, try to find that information about what is really happening in the markets... Panic and volatility are to be expected; **_however one shouldn't "proclaim the death of Bitcoin" based on price-swings... A price swing doesn't mean the demand for Bitcoin has dissapeared... It means many complex market-forces are all pushing the price down... For however long that particular combination of forces **_can_** do that... Then; they will switch and push it up... I like to use the analogy of wind, and cold and hot air... Hot air equals demand and hype; cold air equals supply and panic... When these two forces collide; you get those crazy ups and downs, the result of hot air pushing price up, and cold air pushing price down... Just like the wind, it can also go fucking crazy and be really annoying, or quite soothing and pleasant... Sometimes it's predictable; sometimes its completely unpredictable... Crypto analysists and weather men actually have a lot in common LOL Hahaha! :3
