HYPE\u2019s substantial correction has only intensified.<\/p>\n<h2>BTC Pumps and Dumps<\/h2>\n<p>Even though the US Federal Reserve reduced the key interest rates last week by another 25 bps, bitcoin\u2019s price has been mostly on the decline. It spiked to $94,500 before and after the decision was announced, but was quickly rejected and slipped to $89,500 a day later.<\/p>\n<p>It managed to rebound to $90,000 during the weekend, where it spent most of it trading sideways aside from a brief deviation on Sunday afternoon. However, Monday brought more pain for the bulls as BTC <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/what-really-caused-crypto-markets-to-dump-by-140-billion-in-hours\/\">dumped<\/a> by nearly five grand in just over an hour to $85,500.<\/p>\n<p>It tried to recover some ground in the following days but was stopped at $88,000. Then came the <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/liquidations-spike-again-as-bitcoin-pumps-and-dumps-within-minutes\/\">aforementioned pump-and-dump<\/a> on Wednesday. In what turned out to be a bull trap, BTC jumped by several grand to just over $90,000, when it was rejected and driven south to under $85,500 again.<\/p>\n<p>It has since bounced to the current $87,300, but its market cap still struggles below $1.750 trillion. Its dominance over the alts, though, has shot up by 0.7% daily to 57.6% on CG.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1423625\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1423625\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1423625 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18.png\" alt=\"BTCUSD Dec 18\" width=\"1835\" height=\"909\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18.png 1835w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-300x149.png 300w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-1024x507.png 1024w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-768x380.png 768w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-1536x761.png 1536w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-90x45.png 90w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-150x74.png 150w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-1600x793.png 1600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-1400x694.png 1400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-1200x594.png 1200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-1000x495.png 1000w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-900x446.png 900w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-800x396.png 800w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-700x347.png 700w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-600x297.png 600w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-500x248.png 500w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-400x198.png 400w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-200x99.png 200w, https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/BTCUSD-Dec-18-100x50.png 100w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1835px) 100vw, 1835px\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1423625\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTCUSD Dec 18.
