Top Reasons Why Bitcoin Price Dropped Today
The cryptocurrency industry experienced heightened volatility in the past 24 hours mostly fueled by the futures and options market amid the upcoming high-impact news. According to market data provided by CoinGlass, Bitcoin’s options volume spiked from below $300 million to around $2 billion in the last few days.
Meanwhile, investors in top spot Bitcoin ETF issuers in the United States pulled out their funds, apart from BlackRock’s IBIT which registered $318 million in cash inflows on Thursday. After netting nearly $2 billion in cash inflows on Tuesday and Wednesday, the US spot Bitcoin ETF issuers registered a net cash inflow of around $32 million on Thursday.
Bitcoin price is also reacting to anticipated heightened volatility in the coming days, amid high-impact news from the United States. On November 5, the US 2024 presidential election will be concluded, which will heavily determine the regulatory framework in the largest global economy over the next four years
The crypto market is eagerly awaiting today’s data on the unemployment rate, which will largely shed light on the Fed’s next week decision on interest rates. After initiating the first rate cut in September, the Fed is expected to conduct another next week to bolster the country’s economic outlook.
Labor market data is tomorrow. Should be the deciding factor for cyclical view vs. monetary policy view of #BTC for rest of Q4.
I think it should be apparent by the weekly close which is the most likely outcome.
