Why is Crypto Up or Down?

Crypto is down (-2.2%) β€” Top: MKR -10.3%

Crypto markets traded lower on the day (average -2.05%) as investors digested renewed policy uncertainty in Washington, with CoinDesk highlighting a key White House crypto-policy vacancy that reinforces near-term regulatory ambiguity and weighs on risk appetite. The risk-off tone was most visible in sharper drawdowns among higher-beta DeFi and smart-contract names, with Maker (MKR) and NEAR underperforming as traders reduced exposure to more volatile segments. Separately, headlines around mining output softening and a large DOGE transfer to Binance added to cautious positioning at the margin, reinforcing the broader pullback rather than driving it outright.
