Crypto investors have lost their nerve

The cryptocurrency market was hit by a sell-off over the weekend, the likes of which haven't been seen in a long time. We would not have been surprised to see such a sell-off before the halving due to the last takeout of buyers before the start of active growth. There is nothing unusual about such a downward amplitude in a bear market either, but not now, when the 4-year cyclical pattern should work on the bulls' side.

Bitcoin and Gold Outlook: BTC eyes $70,000, XAU defends $4,000 as focus shifts to US CPI inflation

Bitcoin trades in the red below $75,000 on Monday, while Gold attracts some buyers, holding above $4,100. Market dynamics shifted toward risk aversion after last week's US midterms, resulting in a 5% rebound in Gold as a safe-haven asset, while BTC’s high-risk nature led to a 4% loss in the same period.

Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple extend downtrend as selling pressure mounts

Major cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Ripple, maintain a broadly corrective tone, extending losses from the previous week. Risk-off sentiment builds in the crypto market following last week’s correction linked to Democrats sweeping the US midterms.

Pi Network hits record low as bearish pressure overwhelms rebound hopes

Pi Network is trading at a record low, with over 5% losses so far on Monday, following the previous day’s 6% decline. The PI token's retail appeal also takes a hit, with its Open Interest down by over 20% in a week, indicating a large-scale unwinding of active positions.

Ripple risks further losses as bears eye $1

Ripple extends its decline, trading below $1.09 on Monday after falling more than 10% last week. Weakening institutional demand adds downside pressure, as XRP spot Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) recorded $529,510 in net outflows last week, ending a two-week streak of inflows.

Bitcoin: Bears tighten grip as BTC eyes fifth weekly loss
