Bitcoin is trading at $39,890 at time of writing.

Turning to altcoins, Van de Poppe says that there’s an opportunity amid the negative sentiment and a double-digit correction.

“Altcoins going into a 30% – 50% correction.

People start to lose faith after the approval of the spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

Negative news is getting into the spotlight.

Time to load on the positions.

This is a great, and possibly final dip, to get yourself in.”
