In contrast, BNB has dropped by 4%.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Prepares for FOMC<\/h2>\n<p>Following the massive volatility experienced at the start of the previous week, when BTC <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-btc-bull-cycle-may-be-over-cryptoquant-ceo-warns\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">plunged<\/a> below $77,000 for the first time in four months, the cryptocurrency has traded mostly above $80,000 and has been able to prevent a price drop beneath that line.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the bulls attempted a few leg ups that pushed the asset north to $85,000 but each was followed by an immediate rejection. There was an obvious example during the weekend after which bitcoin plunged below $82,000 and one more on Monday when it was stopped even ahead of $85,000.<\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/these-altcoins-suffer-the-most-as-bitcoin-btc-slides-to-83k-market-watch\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">decline<\/a> came on Tuesday as BTC dropped below $81,500 to mark a multi-day low. However, it bounced off that level and now trades about two grand higher.<\/p>\n<p>More volatility is expected later today as the US central bank is set to announce whether there will be any changes to the key interest rates. Although almost every anticipates that the rates will be left unchanged, BTC tends to react with at least minor fluctuations after each meeting.<\/p>\n<p>For now, its market capitalization stands above $1.650 trillion, while its dominance over the alts has declined slightly to 58.5% on CG.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_388099\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-388099\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/BTCUSD-12.png\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-388099\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/BTCUSD-12.png\" alt=\"BTCUSD.
