Bitcoin Drags Major Altcoins Into The Bearish Zone

The leading digital asset, Bitcoin, has entered into a new bearish zone, putting paid to speculations that the digital asset will create another all-time high. The recent decline that the digital asset saw early this morning has brought it back to a region traders never hoped it would return to.

As at this time, the digital asset is briefly trading in a region close to the lows it witnessed three weeks ago. Bitcoin is not the only digital asset that has been affected by the bears, as some major altcoins have seen massive falls since the start of the day. Analysts have mentioned that it is the bearish run of Bitcoin that is rubbing off on the other altcoins and digital assets, pushing them to make the decline.

The dip was said to be as a result of the US Treasury regulation

When the Asian crypto market started, the digital asset witnessed a big loss to see its selling price jump from a region around $60,000 to stay close to $52,148. All this happened in 15 minutes as some traders could not react to save their investments while others chose to wait until another bullish run.

Also, several details have shown that derivatives position that is close to about $4 billion has been relinquished. This update was reported by Messari, a firm that is led by crypto savvy enthusiasts Ryan Watkins. While much has not been attributed to the loss ok the value of the digital asset, others have mentioned that it might be due to the recent update released by the US Treasury.
