| | Bitcoin Slips Below $28K Ahead of This Week's FOMC Meeting: Market Watch
Bitcoin failed to continue upwards after tapping $28,500 yesterday and has slipped below $28,000 ahead of arguably the most anticipated FOMC meeting in a while.
The altcoins have suffered even more, with DOT, MATIC, SOL, and others dumping by up to 7-8% in a day.
BTC Retraces Before FOMC Meeting
Ever since the banking issues worsened in the US and even expanded to Europe, bitcoin's price performance has been nothing short of spectacular. The cryptocurrency soared from $20,000 to $28,500 within just over a week and tapped a 9-month high. The BTC Fear and Greed Index also skyrocketed to new peaks.
The $28,500 high came yesterday, just after news that UBS had agreed to buy the struggling banking giant Credit Suisse. However, the asset started to retrace in the following hours and dipped to $27,500 earlier today. Despite recovering a few hundred dollars since then, it still trades under $28,000.
All eyes in the financial world tomorrow will be on Jerome Powell - the Chairman of the US Federal Reserve. The next FOMC meeting is scheduled to take place on March 22, and the banking crisis could deter the central bank from further hiking the interest rates.
In fact, prominent billionaires, such as Elon Musk and Bill Ackman, believe the Fed should revert from its current monetary strategy ...
