Much of the optimism from the previous quarter has evaporated as the broader crypto market turns defensive, with traders showing little interest in taking on new long exposure \u2013 even on majors like ETH.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On the technical side, Ethereum is flashing heavy oversold signals. The daily RSI has collapsed to roughly 30, a level that often precedes short-lived recovery rallies but doesn\u2019t guarantee them \u2013 especially in a macro environment that remains shaky.<\/p>\n

The drop has pushed BTC deep into risk-off territory, with sellers dominating order books and upward momentum evaporating. Although Bitcoin has historically attracted dip buyers during sharp retracements, the current environment shows little urgency from bulls, suggesting that macro uncertainty and fading ETF inflows are weighing heavily on sentiment. Until BTC can reclaim key levels above $95,000, analysts warn that volatility may continue to intensify.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
