On Tuesday evening, major cryptocurrencies experienced a downturn. This decline notably indicates the market’s growing acceptance of an extended period of elevated interest rates. As a result, investors are closely monitoring crucial inflation data set to be released on Thursday, looking for possible indicators of a U.S. recession and anticipated interest rate increases.
Crypto Performance Highlights:
- Bitcoin (BTC/USD) fell by 0.40%, closing at $26,224.
- Conversely, Ethereum (ETH/USD) recorded a slight increase of 0.13%, reaching $1,590.
- Dogecoin (DOGE/USD) dropped by 0.60%, now valued at $0.060.
In addition, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) made a noteworthy announcement. They have opted to postpone their decision regarding the proposed ARK 21Shares Bitcoin ETF until January 10 of the following year. In a recent filing, the Commission underscored the necessity for additional time “to consider the proposed rule change.”
