The bull run that happened at the end of 2017 was an anomaly, and many tend to forget that the market is still young and needs time to grow and form to its environment.

He continued with an analogy comparing the crypto market with a growing child.

Novogratz remains hopeful, claiming $6,800 and $10,000 to be critical levels for Bitcoin to break, but does not foresee the latter happening in 2018. He’s quite bullish for 2019 and beyond.
