Bitcoin Plunges Below $67,000: Why?

Factors Contributing to the Decline

1. Federal Reserve Meeting Jitters

  • Investors are holding back before the Federal Reserve’s meeting on Wednesday.
  • The Fed is expected to keep interest rates unchanged but may adopt a more cautious stance.
  • Higher interest rates tend to make non-yielding assets like Bitcoin less attractive.

2. Increased Selling Pressure

  • A surge in selling has pushed Bitcoin below $67,000.
  • The lack of sufficient buy orders has caused a breach in the previous support zone around $68,000.

3. End of Bitcoin ETF Inflow Streak

  • After 19 days of inflows, Bitcoin ETFs experienced significant outflows yesterday.
  • Grayscale Bitcoin Trust saw outflows of $39.5 million.
  • Outflows from other ETF providers also contributed to the decline.

Current Situation

As of this writing, Bitcoin is trading at $66,967. The market remains volatile, and further price fluctuations are possible.
