The total cryptocurrency market capitalization shrank to $3.56 trillion. Bitcoin’s dominance stands at 55.8%, while Ethereum’s is 10.6%.<\/p>\n

Experts interviewed by Bloomberg<\/a> linked the correction to profit-taking by investors amid a regulatory initiative by U.S. President Donald Trump. On January 24, the head of state signed an order to create a working group on cryptocurrencies, calling the digital assets sector a crucial driver of financial innovation.<\/p>\n

The group is expected to propose recommendations within 180 days for regulatory and legislative changes concerning the “issuance and circulation of digital assets, including stablecoins, in the United States.” The structure will also assess the potential for creating a “national reserve of digital assets.”<\/p>\n

\u201cWhile the market got 90% of what it wanted from the order, it\u2019s clear that much of this was already priced in,\u201d said Sean McNulty, head of derivatives for the Asia-Pacific region at FalconX.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Everything that did not concern the reserve, which would immediately start purchasing bitcoins, was a disappointment, the expert added.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter a series of positive news, such as the appointment of crypto-friendly officials, the registration of new ETF products, and government orders, the market seems to be taking a breather,\u201d commented Justin d\u2019Anethan, head of sales at Liquifi.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes suggested that Bitcoin’s correction could reach levels of $70,000-75,000. However, he predicted that a “resumption of money printing” would drive the price to $250,000 by the end of the year.<\/p>\n

The Ugly will be published tomorrow morning. I am calling for a $70k to $75k correction in $BTC<\/a>, a mini financial crisis, and a resumption of money printing that will send us to $250k by the end of the year. pic.twitter.com\/wohvbKkXOf<\/a><\/p>\n
