Market picture

The cryptocurrency market lost another 7.7% to $900B over the past 24 hours, returning capitalisation to the area of September-October lows; at the peak of the decline, it was approaching the current market cycle lows set in June. Leading altcoins in the top 10 fell from 5.5% (BNB) to 22.9% (Dogecoin).

At its worst moment of market capitulation on Tuesday night, Bitcoin was down to $17.1K, renewing 2-year lows. Many potential long-term investors in cryptocurrencies are now trying to assess whether we saw a final surrender yesterday, followed by a reversal. So far, we have doubts that the most worrisome part is behind us.

BTC's sharp decline earlier in the day came amid an abrupt collapse in one of the largest crypto exchanges FTX's own FTT token, which now trades at $4.6, having lost over 80% from $25.6 on Saturday. And all this on high trading volumes.

Another victim of the latest crypto chaos was Solana coin, which had lost 55% since Saturday before the crypto market went wild.

News background

On Tuesday evening, it was reported that Binance had agreed to acquire cryptocurrency exchange FTX amid investor panic and a liquidity crisis at what was once the third-largest cryptocurrency exchange. The news failed to stem capital outflows, and the cryptocurrency sell-off continued, albeit calmer.

Despite some resolution, the news did not trigger a market recovery. Some experts say what has happened threatens the crypto market with significant disruption.

Other observers point out that the collapse of the crypto market occurred on the day of the US congressional elections, which could have triggered selling in an environment of uncertainty, which is always bad for risky assets such as cryptocurrencies.

Silver – Down More Than Half From Its High, But the Story Is Not Over

Silver – Down More Than Half From Its High, But the Story Is Not Over

Silver has lost more than half its value since January's record at $121 — and the path back is not straightforward. Growing solar and EV demand, years of global supply deficits, and a gold-silver ratio near historic highs all argue for upside. But a strong dollar and Fed hawkishness maintain the pressure. The real question is which force breaks first.

History Is Siding with the US Dollar Again

History Is Siding with the US Dollar Again

The DXY has delivered one of its rarest bullish signals, appearing just 20 times since 1970. Historically, these episodes have been followed by further dollar gains and continued weakness in EURUSD. Whilst history never guarantees the future, it does suggest that the current rally may still have further to run—especially with the Fed firmly committed to keeping rates higher for longer.

GBP/USD Approaches Critical Support as Dollar Strength Weighs on Sterling

GBP/USD Approaches Critical Support as Dollar Strength Weighs on Sterling

GBP/USD is testing a pivotal weekly support level against a backdrop of diverging monetary policy dynamics. Persistent U.S. inflation continues to support the dollar, while moderating UK inflation reduces the likelihood of further BoE tightening. A break below 1.3159 would confirm a broader bearish structure, while a move above 1.3540 would challenge this outlook.
