There has been an abrupt bloodbath in the crypto market with losses amounting to $8 billion. Bitcoin Cash is the biggest loser of the day dropping by more than 6%. Moreover, the digital asset has plunged approximately 24.4% in the last one week. Other assets that have suffered greatly include Stellar (XLM), Ethereum (ETH) and IOTA (IOT).

Bitcoin Cash price has, for the first time in 10 days, said goodbye to $500 and testing the support at $470 while saying hello to $400 on the downside. BCH/USD traded higher in the last one week powered by the speculation surrounding the network’s hard fork which is to take place on November 15, hitting $640 on the upside before losing balance below $600.

At the moment, Bitcoin Cash is trading within a descending channel. The channel support at $460 is strong enough to hold in the coming sessions. Besides, the short-term support at $480 is holding just fine, for now. Although the indicators are still negative, Bitcoin Cash has put a stop to the sharp decline. A correction above $500 will face resistance at both the hourly 50 SMA and 100 SMA.

PI price hovers around $0.1300 at press time on Thursday, reflecting a mild rebound from the $0.1186 record low reached earlier on the day. Deposits totaling roughly 1 million PI tokens on exchanges over the last 24 hours suggest waning investor confidence amid a broader market risk-off sentiment.

Billions in ETF outflows don’t bode well

Bitcoin (BTC) remains under pressure, trading below $74,000 on Friday, and is set to post its third consecutive week of losses.
