Crypto Crash Latest News (15th June): The volatile global cryptocurrency markets have suffered one of the worst crashes of the last two years as traders continue to sell. The prices of top cryptos, including Bitcoin and Ethereum, have taken big hits in the ongoing crash while the market sentiments remain in the “extreme fear” zone.
The global crypto market cap has fallen below the $900 billion mark to $896 billion while Bitcoin dominance is at 44.7 percent, according to data on CoinMarketCap at the time of writing (11 am, India time). CoinmarketCap tracks 19866 cryptos and 527 exchanges.
At the time of writing, most of the top cryptos were in the Red, losing again after record falls over the last two days. Bitcoin (BTC) price has dropped 31% in the last seven days. In the last 24 hours, BTC price has decreased by 8 percent to $21,129.
Will cryptos fall more?
“Prior to the US Fed rate hike decision, most markets were in the red. Many market participants now expect a 75bp hike, and will likely be listening closely to how the Fed plans to move ahead.Data from Glassnode also shows that exchange inflow increased over the past two days; once again this indicates fearful market sentiment as most investors are selling and exiting the markets,” Darshan Bathija, CEO and Co-Founder of Vauld, told FE Online.
Some experts think that cryptos may rise if the gains persist.
“On Tuesday, Bitcoin fell to the US$20,000 range for the first time since December 2020 but rose slightly in the past 24 hours. The recent decline comes as traders prepare for the Federal Reserve’s two-day meet-up with rise in inflation levels. BTC will need some time to recover from the huge losses it sustained. The recent surge in value might help recover from the previous losses if the gains are consistent,” Edul Patel Co-Founder and CEO of crypto investment platform Mudrex said.
