Market Outlook

The 0.50% decline in total crypto market capitalization to $2.30 trillion suggests the market remains in a controlled pullback phase rather than a sharp risk-off event.

Bitcoin must hold above the $66,000-$66,500 region to avoid deeper downside pressure, while Ethereum needs to reclaim $2,020-$2,060 to restore confidence across the altcoin complex.
