The BTC dropped again. The market melted down under the fears of the upcoming steps of the Federal Reserve System. The US stock indices slid down, and because of high levels of correlation with them the BTC lost balance as well.
For the buyers, the situation looks disquieting because the price has dropped under the support level of 22,700 and 22,500 USD.
Today the day is quite feeble in terms of statistics or events. Keep an eye on any chances for returning to 22,500 USD. And if the movements remain at the current levels, the goal near 21,000 USD will be more valid.
The current BTC price is 21,925 USD.
Capitalisation of the crypto market has dropped seriously to 1.018 trillion USD. The BTC takes up 41.4% of the market and the ETH – 18.6%.
