Crypto Market Weekly Roundup
The cryptocurrency landscape has witnessed a volatile week, keeping traders and investors on edge.
Bitcoin Price Volatility
Bitcoin (BTC) experienced sharp fluctuations, falling from $64K to as low as $59K, sparking concerns among investors. The decline was attributed to massive token dumps on exchanges, with major institutions like the U.S. and German governments transferring significant amounts of Bitcoin. Whale dumps also contributed to the bearish sentiment. Institutional investors shifted their focus to altcoins, anticipating a possible correction.
