It might be the DOPAMINE EFFECT. The market needs increasingly stronger stimulation to maintain its current state.
Not even the headlines of Strategy™ buying +6000 $BTC this week have stirred the market, nor corporate purchases of $ETH have be given the same attention as in June and early July.
The market is now more sensitive to negative developments and uncertainty.
Both are stalled trading in very narrow ranges, which reflects tension.
Seeing the top coins in red yesterday (negative price changes), was not catastrophic, unless it is adverting fear of higher volatility if the FED raises interest rates (negative for excessively indebted people).
Lower interest rates, will only be positive for fueling the momentum with more credit, but in the end, reckless and excessive borrowing leaves the market vulnerable to increasingly violent corrections.
