The market cap of crypto assets lost $800 billion within a month, Bitcoin continues to suffer from the bearish sentiment, battling at the key technical levels – $30,000.
The cryptocurrency market cap hit a low of $1.4 trillion on Tuesday, well below its all-time peak of $2.9 trillion last November.
The price/earnings growth (PEG) of TerraUSD (UST), the world’s fourth-largest stablecoin, has lost its peg to the U.S. dollar on Tuesday, falling below $1 and its value by a third as the broader cryptocurrency market continues to pound one.
Bitcoin briefly dips below $30,000 on Wednesday during the Asian trading section, once rebounding to near $31,703. BTC has down more than 56% from its all-time high of about $69,000 in November. Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market value, fell to around $2,386 per piece, a 24-hour drop of nearly 2.64%.
“Bitcoin remains highly correlated to the broader economic conditions, which suggest the road ahead may, unfortunately, be a rocky one, at least for the time being,” blockchain data provider Glassnode said in a note.
While cryptocurrencies have been hit hard by the Federal Reserve’s rate hikes, investors don’t seem to be getting discouraged. Digital asset management firm Coinshares said in a report released Monday that a total of $45 million flowed into related cryptocurrency funds and products last week..
“Institutional investors are paying close attention to bitcoin, and a lot of people who bought last year are now losing money on their investments,” said Edward Moya, a market analyst at currency trading platform OANDA, adding that “Bitcoin broke through key technical levels as Wall Street’s relentless selling pressure continues.”
