Just been looking at the charts and it's wild how much the market swung recently. Bitcoin had that nasty pullback from the $79.5K area, struggled to hold above $75K for a bit, but seems to be recovering now. The BTC price action was pretty textbook - hit resistance, got rejected hard, triggered a bunch of liquidations. Saw over $280M in longs getting wiped out.



Ethereum had it even rougher honestly. The ETH didn't have the same conviction as Bitcoin, lots of fakeouts on the way up, and when the correction hit, it just rolled over. The volume wasn't backing the move either, which is always a red flag. Fear index dropped to 39, so people were definitely spooked.

The whole thing was basically profit-taking mixed with pre-FOMC jitters and some geopolitical noise around oil prices. Market cap dipped to $2.54T but the volume stayed elevated, which meant real participation in the selloff. What's interesting now is that BTC price seems to be stabilizing - currently trading around $80K with positive momentum returning. If it holds the support levels, we might see another leg up from here.
