Bitcoin declines slightly defending $103k zone 📌

12:09 PM 19 May 2025

The cryptocurrency market reacted with a relatively mild sell-off following Moody’s decision. The agency downgraded the U.S. credit rating from AAA, which weakened sentiment in the stock market and boosted demand for safe-haven assets. However, Bitcoin is down just over 1.2%, pulling back to around $103,000. The scale of the decline is relatively small and comparable to the drop seen in Wall Street index futures (US500).

BTC’s price has pulled back to the EMA200 (200-session moving average, red line), which has served as a key support level since mid-April.
