Bitcoin has dropped below $104,000 amidst market uncertainty and cautious investor sentiment ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s policy update.
BTC is currently trading at $103,430, down 3.8% on the day and almost 5% lower over the past week. It has lost key short-term support levels after touching highs above $107,000.
The decline in Bitcoin indicates weakening buyer momentum despite positive macro sentiment seen earlier.
The downward trend extended to other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum (ETH), which dropped 6.4% to $2,460, and Solana (SOL) which fell 7% to $146.
Ripple’s XRP declined by 7.16% to $2.14, while Binance Coin (BNB) retreated 3.5% to $641.
Investors are closely monitoring macro events, especially the Federal Reserve's FOMC decision, for potential impacts on the market's direction.
Attention is focused on any dovish policy shifts from the Federal Reserve, which could either fuel a market rebound or prolong the current downtrend.
