Odaily Planet Daily News: Matthew Sigel, head of digital asset research at VanEck, said in an interview with CNBC: "Since all the forced selling (referring to the German government's selling of BTC and Mt.Gox compensation) is over, this is a typical seasonal pattern. Bitcoin tends to 'struggle' within one to three months after the halving event in April." At the same time, Sigel said that the US presidential election in November will be a critical moment for Bitcoin prices. He believes that regardless of the outcome of the election, macroeconomic conditions will remain unchanged in the next few years. He added that the market must "recognize that no matter which candidate wins, we will face another four years of reckless fiscal policy. History shows that Bitcoin will indeed make great strides at this point, we are buyers, and we really think it can recover." At the same time, several analysts have noticed that global liquidity is beginning to surge. "Global liquidity has begun to increase, and a pattern is forming," Francesco Madonna, CEO of BitVaulty, wrote in a post recently. (Cointelegraph)
