Another eventful, volatile, and mostly painful week went by, in which BTC dug a new multi-month low, while XRP saw the launch of a second ETF tracking its performance go live in the US.<\/p>\n
But first, we need to rewind the clock to last Friday. At the time, bitcoin and the rest of the market were already in shambles. The largest cryptocurrency had lost<\/a> the $100,000 level and dumped below $95,000, which was then the lowest level since late April.<\/p>\n Although the asset found some support during the weekend and even touched $96,000 briefly, the bears were in complete control and drove it south further starting on Sunday afternoon. The landscape worsened<\/a> on Tuesday with a price slip below $90,000, but that level managed to hold, at first.<\/p>\n Just a day later, though, it gave in and BTC plunged toward $88,000. Another leg down followed on Thursday, with bitcoin dropping to $86,000. After a minor bounce-off to $88,000, the bears returned in full force earlier today and drove the cryptocurrency south hard to just over $80,000. This is the lowest level BTC has traded since April.<\/p>\n Following this calamity, in which BTC had lost $10,000 since last Sunday and more than $26,000 since November 11, the asset posted a relief rally to $85,000. It came after the New York Fed President John Williams hinted<\/a> that the central bank might lower the interest rates in the near future, which was in contrast to the overall expectations for a no-change decision in December.<\/p>\n Nevertheless, BTC quickly lost the momentum and is now back down to $83,000, painting a painful 14% weekly loss. Most larger-cap alts have charted similar declines, such as ETH, XRP, DOGE, LINK, HYPE, and others. ZEC is the only exception with an actual gain this week of almost 9%.<\/p>\n <\/a>Cryptocurrency Market Overview Weekly.
