Bitcoin’s market correction is essential for these 3 things to play out

There has been a lot of talk about the current market’s correction. The reason for the dip has been attributed directly or indirectly to many factors: the most prominent one being, Elon Musk’s BTC announcement and news surrounding China’s crypto mining ban.

Overall, two scenarios played out amid this massive pullback:

• Short-term hodlers sold at a loss.
• Miners and long-term hodlers accumulated coins. Ergo, buying the dip

With fear being a prevalent market sentiment, many long-term crypto proponents voiced their confidence in the crypto-markets.

If the market don't shake out the weak hands, it won't have the strong foundation to grow further. With weak hands in there, at some point, it must have a retrace. Not sure which one causes which. But after a shake out, the foundation is stronger. ? https://t.co/6inX2HJDV1

CZ had previously stated that corrections were essential “for: 1) building support levels; 2) let people take profit, and 3) most importantly, shake out weak hands, which helps to build a strong foundation.”

Another trader and analyst stated:

It's likely we'll need some time to recover from this. If you're in high quality altcoins for the long term, you have nothing to fear. High quality altcoins are on sale. Lower prices are just a better opportunity to make you richer in the long term.

IOHK CEO Charles Hoskinson in his AMA session was also quick to acknowledge an important aspect of market setbacks. He said:

“Welcome to crypto. That’s how crypto works. It goes way up, it goes way down. You guys can’t get 900% gains without expecting some pullbacks.”
