Why Bitcoin is down 2.0% today
Analysis
Bitcoin fell about 2% over the past 24 hours as traders stayed cautious ahead of a “high-stakes” Federal Reserve meeting that could set the tone for risk assets, even as BTC appeared relatively resilient to broader tech/AI-related selling pressure. Sentiment may also have been weighed down by miner-sector stress after reports that mining pool Poolin filed for bankruptcy and is seeking a $52M Texas asset sale, adding to near-term overhang concerns.
