The cryptocurrency market experienced a significant sell-off today, with Bitcoin (BTC) dropping notably below $94,000.
The Federal Reserve's monetary policy announcement last week caused Bitcoin to fall below $100,000.
Market participants witnessed a sharp decline in major altcoins, triggering substantial liquidations and affecting the total market capitalization.
From a technical analysis perspective, Bitcoin's long-term outlook remains relatively stable as it retests local support just below $93,500.
Ethereum, XRP, and Dogecoin have also experienced significant losses, dropping nearly 16%, 8%, and 21% respectively during the past week.
Global liquidity conditions are tightening, with central banks reducing their balance sheets and rising bond market volatility making conditions unfavorable for risk assets.
Despite the market downturn, there hasn't been a significant surge in leveraged position liquidations over the past 24 hours.
Even though the market is down, experts from VanEck predict the BTC price at $180,000 next year.
Analysts project ETH could reach between $4,000 and $6,500 by the end of 2024, and even $32,000 by 2030.
XRP has been maintaining local support at $2.20 since mid-November and could soar to almost $1,000 next year.
