The world’s largest cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin and Ethereum, continued losing ground on Monday, with the first one falling below the $77,500 mark, reaching its lowest level since November 11, 2024. Meanwhile, ETH declined to the lowest point since November 3, 2023. The loss of interest in cryptos seems to be related to a mix of factors, including escalating tariff-war tensions that sparked fears of a recession. Further, US President Donald Trump was asked by Fox News host Maria Bartiromo on Sunday if he was expecting a recession this year. The president didn’t deny that was a potential outcome. Bitcoin (BTC) decreased 3.97% to $77,492 at 2:59 pm ET and Ethereum (ETH) lost 9.39% to sell for $1,826 at the same time.
