Bitcoin slips below $108k
The cryptocurrency market is opening the weekly candle bearish, with Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies suffering huge losses in the last 24 hours. Bitcoin has lost 3% of its value since Sunday and is now trading at $107,500 per coin.
Other leading cryptocurrencies, including Ether, XRP, and BNB, are all trading in the red as momentum in the market continues to weaken.&
BTC’s price faced rejection at the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level at $115k last week as the Fed rate cut failed to spur a rally. It has lost over 7% of its value since then and could dip lower if the bearish trend continues.&
The recent bearish trend comes as the Fed chair Jerome Powell quenched expectations of a December rate cut during his press conference last week. According to Powell, the tariffs continue to affect prices, and this could see the Fed leave interest rates unchanged for a while.
