For the first time since June this year, the primary cryptocurrency dipped below $100,000 (on a couple of occasions, in fact) this week, which is quite surprising given the overall positive developments on a macro and industry front.<\/p>\n

For instance, just last week, the US Federal Reserve cut<\/a> the interest rates by another 25 bps, which is typically regarded as a bullish move for risk-on assets. A day later, Washington and Beijing made significant progress in their trade war, which was followed by a trade deal.<\/p>\n

And yet, neither of those benefited BTC. Just the opposite, its correction started after the two announcements with a price dip to $106,500 last Thursday. Nevertheless, the asset bounced by the weekend and stood mostly at around $111,000. The worst, though, was yet to take place.<\/p>\n

As the new business week began, bitcoin went on another downfall and dropped to $105,000 on Monday. Its correction intensified<\/a> on Tuesday, and it plunged below $100,000 for the first time in nearly five months. Its bottom, at the time, came at $99,000.<\/p>\n

The bulls tried to intercept the move and help the asset recover. They were successful at first as BTC quickly rebounded to over $104,000. However, this was a short-lived rally that was halted in its tracks. Earlier today, the cryptocurrency dipped<\/a> below $100,000 once again and now fights to stay above that crucial level.<\/p>\n

Even more painful weekly declines come from the likes of ETH, which dumped to $3,200, XRP, which is close to breaking below $2.20, BNB, SOL, DOGE, ADA, LINK, BCH, and many others. In contrast, ZEC and ICP have stolen the show with price pumps of 73% and 163%, respectively.<\/p>\n

Arthur Hayes Ties Next Bitcoin Rally to End of U.S. Government Shutdown<\/strong>.
