The crypto market is witnessing a wipeout of strong gains from the first part of the day, returning to a downtrend. The situation is extraordinary, and the scale of the sell-off is significantly larger than in the stock market, which is also experiencing declines.

However, the broader market declines indicate mild investor panic, further fueled by weaker sentiment in the U.S. stock market.
