Causes of the Sharp Decline in Cryptocurrency Markets

Cryptocurrency markets have experienced a sharp decline, leading to significant losses for Bitcoin and altcoins. We analyze the current trends and causes.

Reasons for the Cryptocurrency Decline

There was a risk of a downturn before the upcoming Fed minutes on Wednesday. However, the decline was sudden. Jerome Powell did not provide encouraging remarks during the last Fed meeting. The JOLTS data was significantly higher than expectations, indicating economic growth and strong employment. This signals that the Fed is unlikely to significantly lower rates at upcoming meetings, which is negative for risk markets.

The markets opened with selling in the U.S., and we began to decline, indicating a U.S.-driven downturn.

When Will the Decline End?

The downturn stemmed from U.S. data. Trump's announcement of a data center investment could not sustain the markets. Trump must push his cabinet to support cryptocurrencies to improve the situation.

Market Analysis

According to a Turkish analyst, the markets opened with volume, leaving a gap in Nasdaq. Binance was in a selling position and remains there. It is important to see a buying trend from Binance. On Coinbase, there was selling alongside the decline, but not enough to prevent recovery.

Despite current negative circumstances, analysts suggest a possibility of recovery. This could occur after stabilization of U.S. data and adjustments at key exchanges.
