Global Economic Pressure and Interest Rate Concerns
One of the biggest influences on the crypto market today comes from traditional finance. When central banks, especially the U.S. Federal Reserve, raise interest rates, it makes borrowing more expensive and lowers investors’ appetite for risk. Cryptocurrencies are still viewed as high-risk assets, so when rates go up, many investors move their money out of crypto and into safer investments like bonds or savings.
