Bitcoin, as a cryptocurrency, is very unstable in a market that is murky and ever-shifting. Despite Block’s diversified business focus as a payment provider, shares have been volatile owing to the company’s adoption of Bitcoin and Jack Dorsey’s engagement in the cryptocurrency ecosystem. Even if cryptocurrencies are not the company’s core product, it is nonetheless subject to market sentiment.

Following Jerome Powell’s statement that interest rates would be held unchanged, the cryptocurrency market, led by Bitcoin, has witnessed a sharp decline in the hours since. Bitcoin’s (BTC) price has dropped below $25,000 in the previous 24 hours, a loss of approximately 3.5%.

Similarly, the total value of the cryptocurrency market has fallen by about $40 billion and is poised to go below the $1 trillion barrier. The current strong support level for Bitcoin (BTC) is around $25,000. If prices go below this level, they may fall to $23,500 and below. The share price has dropped below this support and is now trading at $24, 866 as per CMC.
