📊 24H Crypto Check-In: Profits Taken, Risk Appetite Fades
Even with softer inflation data and rate cuts in the backdrop, crypto leaned lower as traders shifted to risk-off mode. $BTC slipped ~2% to the $88K area, with profit-taking after the recent rally and growing caution around potential ETF-driven selling if weakness accelerates.
$ETH tracked the move, down more than 2% near $2.9K, as pressure spread across major assets. Days like this are a reminder: positive macro headlines don’t always win—positioning and sentiment can flip the market faster than the news.
