Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Dip After Robinhood Gets Wells Notice From SEC ā€” Analyst Says ETHs Weak Fundamentals A 'Roadblock' For King Crypto

Author: Benzinga Newsdesk | May 07, 2024 03:10am

Major cryptocurrencies witnessed a drop on Monday as another top cryptocurrency company stared at an enforcement action by U.S. regulators.

Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC)-1.01%$63,702
Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH)-2.46%$3,086
Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE)-4.36%$0.15

What Happened: World's largest digital asset by market cap, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC), failed to sustain its recent climb to $65,000, falling back to the $63,000 zone. 

The price slump liquidated nearly $215 worth of positions in the last 24 hours, with long liquidations accounting for 68% of the total. Notably, Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) led the chart with over $67 million in liquidations, followed by Bitcoin at $54.71 million.

The Open Interest in Bitcoin futures slipped 1.68% in the last 24 hours to $30 billion. 

The negative sentiment was triggered after brokerage firm Robinhood Markets Inc (NASDAQ:HOOD) revealed that its crypto arm received a Wells Notice from the SEC, a precursor to a likely enforcement action by the regulator.

Analyst Notes: According to 10x Research, Bitcoin and Ethereum have become highly correlated, with Ethereum's lackluster performance weighing heavily on the king coin. 

"Ethereum's weak fundamentals are becoming a roadblock for Bitcoin as they prevent broad fiat inflow into the crypto ecosystem."

Cryptocurrency analyst Michael van de Poppe predicted a bullish pivot for the altcoins in the next few months. 

He said, "Great close for the weekly candle on the altcoin market capitalization. Expecting that this will be testing ATH in the coming 3-5 months."
