“The Monday’s drop came after the release of the US Durable Goods Orders data for January, which dropped by 4.5 percent. Despite strong economic data for the same period, this raised concerns among investors and traders about inflation and potential interest rate hikes,” said Edul Patel of Mudrex.
Patel added, “BTC lost its weekly gains and is currently in the red after dropping from its previous high of over US$25,000 a week ago. Overall, the broader crypto market is facing challenges amidst the bearish market conditions.”
