Crypto market decline these days: what's happening $XRP $BTC $SOL ?
1. Disappointments over interest rate cuts
The recent drop in prices, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP, is due to investors no longer having high expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will cut interest rates. Higher-than-expected wholesale inflation data has generated uncertainty about a more lenient monetary policy

2. Profit-taking after all-time highs
After a strong market recovery, many participants have decided to secure their profits. This is especially relevant after the recent price peaks, a common phenomenon that exerts short-term downward pressure.
3. Massive liquidations and leverage
Significant liquidations of leveraged positions (longs) were recorded, which intensified the sell-off. In particular, when the price starts to retreat, these forced positions amplify losses and drain liquidity rapidly.
4. Uncertainty ahead of key events like Jackson Hole
The community is awaiting clear signals from the Fed, such as comments at the Jackson Hole symposium and the release of the Fed's minutes. Until then, the market is moving cautiously.
