Solana, Cardano, Ripple Follow Bitcoin's Drop: Experts Explain Why Crypto Is Down Today
Portfolio Pulse from Khyathi Dalal
The cryptocurrency market is experiencing a correction, with a 1.28% decrease in total market capitalization, following the release of the FOMC meeting minutes. Altcoins such as Cardano, Solana, and XRP are down approximately 4%, while Chainlink is down 2%. The correction is attributed to stronger-than-expected inflation data and fears of continued tight monetary policy. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell indicated a March rate cut was unlikely. Investors are now looking towards the Bitcoin halving event to potentially catalyze a price rally.
