Bitcoin and altcoin markets experienced a sharp decline today, with the largest cryptocurrency falling below the $57,000 level, making headlines. In the last 24 hours, Bitcoin fell by up to 10%, leading to double-digit losses across the rest of the cryptocurrency market. Currently, investors are cautiously waiting for the Federal Open Market Committee‘s (FOMC) latest interest rate decision, with many preferring to observe the situation from the sidelines amid uncertainty.
Why Is Bitcoin Falling?
Cryptocurrency market remains under heavy selling pressure, and analysts at 10X Research have noted fundamental differences between the current and previous downturns. According to analysts, this decline is distinguished by several unique factors, particularly as it corresponds to the third 20% correction within a larger bull market since the beginning of the fifth Bitcoin bull run in June 2023.
Interestingly, 10X Research analysts, who had previously predicted all three corrections, pointed out that one of the distinctive factors of this downturn is the different risk management strategies used by institutional investors compared to individual investors, indicating that they triggered the decline.
As Bitcoin’s price approaches the average entry price of U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF holders, market dynamics are influenced by a variety of factors unlike previous downturns, with institutional sentiment playing a significant role.
Despite the Downturn, Analysts Remain Optimistic
As of this writing, Bitcoin has fallen 7.87% in the last 24 hours, trading around $57,500. Despite the current downward trend, some analysts remain optimistic about its future.
Captain Faibik and other market experts expect an upcoming rally that could lead Bitcoin to new all-time highs in the coming days. Similarly, Michael van de Poppe suggests that Bitcoin may be nearing the end of its correction phase and advises monitoring the potential support range of $56,000 to $58,000.
