The crypto market is facing another brutal correction as prices tumble across the board. Bitcoin (BTC) has plunged to $89,740, losing 5.9% in the past 24 hours. Ethereum (ETH) has also taken a major hit, falling 6.5% and slipping below the key $3,000 mark to trade at $2,989.
The sharp decline comes amid growing macroeconomic uncertainty and investor fear. According to the Fear and Greed Index (FGI), sentiment has nosedived to 11, signaling “Extreme Fear” in the market.

With panic setting in, long positions are being wiped out rapidly. Total liquidations have surged close to $1 billion, as traders get caught on the wrong side of the market. Long traders, betting on prices to rise, are bearing the brunt of this crash.
The crypto market cap has also shrunk, now standing at $3.27 trillion, further highlighting the scale of the downturn. This wave of sell-offs is not just limited to BTC and ETH. Altcoins across the board are also experiencing steep declines, amplifying the bearish sentiment.
