The new circumstances in the world’s financial systems have echoed in the crypto market leading to severe falls in the cryptocurrencies.However, the CEO of Binance, Richard Teng, urged people of the crypto market to be cautious and properly informed all the time. He stated that now the market is in a stressful situation, this situation does not mean that investors will have to work within the framework of a bear market in the long term.
Macroeconomic Factors Leading to Market Fluctuations
Below are factors affecting the macroeconomics that triggers volatility on the current Cryptocurrency market. A steep drop in the American and Japanese stock markets during this period has created strings of volatility in the market, including newly emerged assets like cryptocurrencies.
According to Teng, these economic circumstances are among the main reasons for the recent decline in cryptocurrencies’ prices. But, he urged the community not to be worried because they are short term factors. Also they do not have to do with the potential for a long-term growth in the cryptocurrency market.
Major Cryptos See Dramatic Drops in Value
As a result of selloff pressure, major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and XRP are down significantly. Bitcoin fell early in May to about $50,000 from its highs, and Ether declined to as low as $2,111. Solana and XRP also went down in value and with large percentage declines of more than 11% and 15% respectively. These declines further put into perspective the interdependency of financial markets. It also illustrate how cryptocurrencies can be equally sensitive to wider economic cycles.
After the first problem, the cryptocurrency market has started to recover slowly. This can be seen with the green stocks. At press time, Bitcoin has recovered slightly and is now at $55 670, which is approximately a 2.16% increase over the last day. Ether, Solana, and XRP have also recorded positive movement in terms of their value change, especially in the current period. Teng did stress one thing – that this industry is far from stable, and further ups and downs could be expected in the near future.
