Crypto Market Under Pressure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The crypto<\/a> market capitalization has plunged by $71 billion<\/strong> in 24 hours, falling to $3.85 trillion<\/strong>. This decline is linked to the uncertainty<\/strong> arising from the Trump-Putin<\/strong> meeting in Alaska, which intensified investors’ risk aversion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This reaction demonstrates cryptocurrencies’ high sensitivity<\/strong> to geopolitical events. When confidence<\/strong> weakens, digital assets dive. Bitcoin<\/a><\/strong> has triggered a widespread correction<\/strong>, significantly impacting altcoins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin Defends Its Support<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Bitcoin<\/a><\/strong> slipped below $115,500<\/strong>, but is attempting to hold its major support at $115,000<\/strong>. The RSI index<\/strong>, now below 50, confirms a bullish exhaustion<\/strong> and increases investor caution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If selling pressure<\/strong> persists, BTC could plunge toward $112,256<\/strong>. However, a rebound<\/strong> from $115,000 would offer an opportunity to retest $117,261<\/strong>, then target $120,000<\/strong> as a new objective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
