Why is all of crypto falling?

Crypto markets are down in March 2026 due to a convergence of factors: high U.S. inflation data decreasing hopes for interest rate cuts, heightened geopolitical tensions causing a "risk-off" sentiment, and significant selling pressure surrounding Bitcoin ETF, according to CoinDCX and Al Jazeera. This has driven traders toward safer assets, resulting in major sell-offs, forced liquidations, and regulatory uncertainty surrounding #stablecoins.
