Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Dip As $250M Crypto Liquidations Strike — Analyst Cautions Fed Rate Cuts Could Fuel Downturn
Portfolio Pulse from Mehab Qureshi
Major cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Dogecoin experienced price drops, with $250 million in crypto derivatives liquidated. The downturn is attributed to anticipation of a higher-than-expected Consumer Price Index (CPI) release. Over $242.87 million in long positions were liquidated in the past 24 hours. The global cryptocurrency market cap increased by 4.25%, while the Dow and S&P 500 showed mixed results. Analysts suggest the market's future direction depends on altcoin performance and potential Federal Reserve rate cuts.
