The introduction of Bitcoin (BTC) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) has triggered a significant sell-off, leading to a sharp decline in the Bitcoin price. 
The highly volatile moves after the approval of the first US spot Bitcoin ETFs continued in the past 24 hours, with a massive dump to under $41,600. 
After gaining approval and commencing trading on Thursday, the ETFs have prompted a “sell the news” event, causing Bitcoin’s value to plummet from its initial trading price of $46,500 at the time of approval to a low of $43,200 within a matter of hours on Friday. 
Over the past 24 hours, Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has experienced a 7% drop.&nbsp; 
Its gains over the past 30 days have been limited to a mere 4%, erasing much of the progress made during that period.&nbsp;

Bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency industry had a very eventful week, in which the US SEC was expected to approve the first spot BTC ETFs in the country.&nbsp; 
While that indeed transpired on Wednesday, it didn’t go without its own set of hiccups, including a hack on the previous day with fake news, deleted and reposted statements, as well as controversial words from the agency’s chairman – Gary Gensler. 
Naturally, this all resulted in enhanced volatility, with multiple massive price movements from BTC.&nbsp; 
After the ETFs reached the US markets on Thursday, the asset first soared to a 21-month peak at over $49,000 before it crumbled by three grand in minutes. 
The landscape was less volatile on Friday, but only during the Asian and European trading hours.&nbsp; 
As the US trading hours were coming to an end, the primary digital asset slumped to under $41,600 for just the second time since the start of 2024. 
As of now, it has reclaimed some ground and stands <a href="https://coinstats.app/coins/bitcoin/">close</a> to $43,000. Its market cap, though, is down to $843 billion, and so is its dominance – 50% on CMC now. The metric had soared to over 53% earlier this week.

Although most altcoins are in the red now, some have suffered less than others. Such is the case with Ethereum, which is down by a more modest 2.6% to $2,550.&nbsp;

Binance Coin (BNB), Ripple (XRP), Dogecoin, and Toncoin have also declined by less than 5%. 
At the same time, assets like SOL, ADA, AVAX, MATIC, BCH, DOT, and ATOM have slumped by more than 5% and up to 11% in the case of BCH. 
The total crypto market cap has seen $80 billion gone in a day and is down under $1.7 trillion on CMC.
