Crypto Market Crash: Is the Worst Over as $BTC , $ETH , $SOL & Altcoins Slide Deeper?
The crypto market is facing one of its sharpest pullbacks of the year, with Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and major altcoins dropping sharply. A mix of macro pressure, massive options expiry, and ETF outflows has triggered panic across the market pushing sentiment into extreme fear.
🔑 Key Highlights:
✅ Global crypto market cap plunges to a 6-month low at $3.27T, down from $4.28T last month
✅ Bitcoin drops 23% and Ethereum 36% from ATH levels
✅ Fed December rate-cut hopes fade as inflation worries rise
✅ Massive $4.7B options expiry sparks heavy volatility today
✅ Over $1.1B in liquidations, with 237K traders wiped out in 24 hours
💡 Why it matters:
The sell-off is being fueled by a perfect storm: fading macro confidence, BTC/ETH ETF outflows, and whales taking profit after a strong multi-month rally. With investor sentiment crashing to extreme fear (15), markets risk further downside if BTC breaks key supports and options traders continue hedging for lower levels.
BTC slipping toward $94K–$95K and ETH toward $3K reflects broader risk-off behavior. If institutional outflows continue and buyers stay inactive, altcoins may face deeper corrections in the coming days.
