<p>The crypto market experienced a substantial sell-off during Asian hours, causing the global crypto market value to drop by up to 5% to $1.57 trillion. While Bitcoin price fell by 7%, leading altcoins such as Ethereum (ETH), XRP, Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), DOGE, and SHIB recorded significant sales within a few minutes. The Crypto Fear and Greed Index dropped from 82 (extreme greed) to 80.</p>
<p>A correction in the crypto market was expected by traders as the market continued its rally. A popular Bitcoin analyst stated that the correction is not surprising, especially during periods of ‘extreme greed’ and major macro events, as corrections and pullbacks are crucial to confirm further rallies.</p>
<p>COINOTAG issued the first warning this week about the possibility of an upcoming correction. BTC price is expected to drop further due to the Bitcoin CME gap at $39.7K that needs to be filled before a potential rally. Open positions were liquidated by up to 5% on CME and 8% on Binance, respectively.</p>

<p>Additionally, CoinGlass data shows over $400 million in significant liquidations on December 12th. The market wiped out longs worth $354 in just one hour. In the last 24 hours, more than 119,000 traders were liquidated, with the largest single liquidation order being $8.23 million on OKX’s BTC-USDT-SWAP. Due to position closures and selling pressure, the crypto market is in the ‘red’ today.</p>
<p>Inflation data released this week and the announcement of the year-end interest rate decision by the U.S. Federal Reserve prompted investors to liquidate their assets.</p>
<h2 id="strong-bitcoin-and-ethereum-prices-expected-to-drop-further-strong"><strong>Bitcoin and Ethereum Prices Expected to Drop Further</strong></h2>
<p>Bitcoin and Ethereum prices are expected to experience further retracement in the U.S. hours, and traders and whales are anticipated to consider another entry near support levels. A popular crypto analyst said, “We couldn’t break above 40,000.” He believes that a full reset in open interest (OI) does not disrupt the bullish market structure and is preparing for a rally towards $50,000.</p>
<p>He believes that the BTC price could reach $60,000 in the coming weeks. Meanwhile, he still expects the ETH price to reach $3,500. The BTC price is currently trading at $42,080, erasing gains from a few hours ago. The 24-hour lows and highs are $40,521 and $44,034, respectively. The ETH price is trading at $2,234 and experienced a 5% drop in the last 24 hours. The 24-hour lows and highs are $2,171 and $2,376, respectively.</p>
