🧠 The situation in the Bitcoin market today
📉 Bearish sentiment continues to weigh
Bitcoin has fallen below $90,000, and in recent days its price has dropped below $86,000, losing more than 30% from the October high.
The pressure remains as traders lock in profits and move away from risky assets.
💼 Macroeconomic factors are impacting BTC
Expectations for interest rate cuts from the Fed have decreased, reducing interest in riskier assets, including cryptocurrencies.
Pressure on crypto markets is also added by a more hawkish stance from the Bank of Japan, which heightens global uncertainty — this is reflected in the correction of BTC and other risky assets.
📊 Revising analyst forecasts
Major financial institutions have significantly lowered their BTC forecasts: Standard Chartered cut its annual Bitcoin price target from $200,000 to approximately $100,000, citing a decrease in institutional demand.
