Bitcoin begins the second week of March in a turbulent zone, recording one of the worst weekly performances in history. The world's largest cryptocurrency fell by 2.4% to $80,289.1 by 01:50 Eastern Time, having previously dropped to $76,677.1.
Broader crypto markets also fell, as the recently announced national reserve by Trump generated little enthusiasm. The cryptocurrency summit held last week at the White House provided no hints about Trump's regulatory plans.
Ethereum blockchain's Ether (ETH) briefly fell below $2000, with trading reported at the lowest price since November 2023. Currently, Ether has recorded a decline of approximately 4%.
XRP, Solana, and Cardano lost between 1.6% and 3.1%.
Among meme tokens, Dogecoin fell by 7.9%, while $TRUMP reached a record low below $10.
