Bitcoin, the top cryptocurrency, dropped from nearly $38,000 last week to under $36,550, a 1% decrease. This happened after a month-long 30% rise, sparking talks of a positive trend. Even though it hit $35,100 today, the crypto market mostly kept its gains from the surge, hinting at possible more growth and less calmness. Last week, Bitcoin reached $37,800 due to hopes for a U.S. Bitcoin ETF. But JP Morgan analysts warned about its effect on Bitcoin's value. Today's drop caused big sell-offs, wiping out over $367 million in a day and affecting 103,000 traders. Bitcoin initially rose due to good U.S. CPI data but settled near $35,400. BlackRock's Ethereum ETF idea pushed Ether over $2,000, but it's now at $1,974 after falling 6%. Cryptocurrency values change a lot, influenced by economics and feelings in the market. Investors are watching for rules that could change crypto values.
