Bitcoin continues to fall.. Losses of 35% since the start of 2026



Bitcoin dropped below the $60,000 level, recording around $59,000 briefly—its lowest level since October 2024—before trimming part of its losses and trading near $61.6K.

This decline comes as the US Dollar Index rises to its highest level in 13 months, alongside investors’ anticipation of important US economic data, including inflation, GDP, and unemployment claims.

Markets are closely tracking these indicators, as their results could affect the Federal Reserve’s decisions on interest rates, which directly reflects investors’ appetite for high-risk assets, led by cryptocurrencies.
