Median trasnactions fees reached a new peak of 30 usd proving, once again just in case there was any doubt, that bitcoin currently is not ready for "production phase" (either for lack of developement or quality of the same)

Channel broken.
Best case scenario, market is hungry of overleveraged dipbuyers and we are retesting lows to shake them out.
Worst case scenario bull trap is over and we are heading to new lows.
Trade closed: target reached
Even the 6160 head and shoulders target was met (~60% price dip).
Trade safe and don't get lured into the "back to normal" trap.
