Bitcoin loses 3% 📉Crypto retreat amid pressure on Wall Street

The two largest cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin and Ethereum, are trading down 3 and nearly 4% today, respectively, against a nearly 2.3% sell-off on the Nasdaq 100. Investors were spooked by weaker-than-forecast US macro data released today, which may raise concerns around the recession and the 'timing' of Fed monetary easing.

Contrary to the expectations of some investors, bitcoin failed to gain on the wave of a weakening dollar and falling US bond yields, which today settled at 3.97%, losing nearly 13 basis points from yesterday's close.
As a result, today we are seeing a retreat from risky assets, which include cryptocurrencies. Gold is doing slightly better, although even there the rebound in contracts has been halted at the level of $2460 per ounce.
Bitcoin is testing $62,800, and Ethereum has settled below $3100. The debut of ETFs failed to permanently improve sentiment around ETH, with some altcoins including EOS and the 'meme' Apecoin posting double-digit declines today.
