I think the current rally was the tether train taking profits (just a hunch). If you overlay the previous cycle with the current cycle there is a lot of things out of the ordinary. 1st was the hash war and directly after that was the tether pump... we are returning to a realistic price which should be in the range of 6-7k and then a slow rise from there (my opinion) but WTFKs...
