• Bearish Sentiments in Ethereum: The bearish shift in Ethereum's funding rates and price decline as highlighted in the article, "Ethereum’s funding rates and price decline point to bearish shift," has negatively impacted the overall market.
• Decrease in Bitcoin Mining Difficulty: The significant drop in Bitcoin mining difficulty mentioned in "Bitcoin mining difficulty drops by over 4%," indicates potential pessimism around mining activity, which can generally correlate with broader market pessimism.
• Reaction to CPI Numbers: Multiple articles, including "Bitcoin, Ethereum Dip as Market Digests CPI Numbers" and "Bitcoin Drops to $58K After U.S. CPI Print, BTC ETFs Record $81M Outflow," point out that despite inflation dropping in line with expectations, the market reacted negatively to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) report.
• High Liquidations: As mentioned in the article "Bitcoin, Ethereum Prices Suddenly Plunge as Liquidations Top $175 Million," mass liquidations have further exacerbated the downward pressure on the market.
