The cryptocurrency market is once again under pressure as prices continue to fall, and experts are warning that the pain may not be over yet. Bitcoin and Ethereum, the two largest digital assets, have both recorded sharp losses, raising concerns among traders, investors, and analysts worldwide.
Bitcoin recently dropped to around $73,000, marking a steep fall over a short period. In just one week, its price declined by nearly 16 percent. Compared to its record high in October, Bitcoin is now down by more than 40 percent. Ethereum has suffered even more, losing over a quarter of its value in the past week and trading far below its previous peak.
Market experts describe the current situation as highly bearish. Many warn that if Bitcoin fails to stay above key price levels, more investors could rush to sell. This type of selling pressure has triggered major crashes in the past. Some analysts believe Bitcoin could fall to the mid-$50,000 range if market confidence continues to weaken.
The recent downturn did not happen in isolation. After Bitcoin reached a record high late last year, the market experienced one of the largest liquidation events in crypto history. That wave of forced selling caused deep damage, and prices have struggled to recover since then. Global economic uncertainty and shifting investor sentiment have added more pressure to the already fragile market.
Still, not all signals are negative. Some experts believe the downturn may be less severe than past crypto winters. In earlier bear markets, Bitcoin lost as much as 80 percent of its value. This time, analysts point to growing institutional involvement as a stabilizing factor. Large companies and funds now hold digital assets on their balance sheets, which may help limit extreme price drops.
Regulatory developments also offer a small sense of relief. Clearer rules in several regions are helping make the market more structured and transparent. While regulation does not prevent losses, it can reduce panic and improve long-term confidence.
Blockchain data provides another mixed signal. On-chain indicators show that exchange reserves remain relatively stable. This suggests that, for now, investors are not rushing to move their assets in fear. Such behavior often appears during the most extreme market crashes, and its absence may mean the current decline is still under control.
Overall, experts agree that the crypto market may continue to struggle in the short term. Volatility is likely to remain high, and prices could fall further before any recovery begins. However, stronger market foundations, institutional support, and improved regulation may help soften the blow compared to previous downturns. The coming months will be critical in determining whether this plunge deepens or finally begins to ease.
For companies like Core AI Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: CHAI), the current concerns in the crypto market bring to mind the ongoing debates about whether or not AI is in a bubble that could soon burst.
