The record outflows on Tuesday came as Bitcoin’s price fell below $93K amid macroeconomic concerns , signaling expectations of a more hawkish stance from the Federal Reserve following its recent minutes, which hinted at persistent inflation under the incoming Trump administration. The bearish news for cryptocurrencies, combined with the significant outflows seen yesterday, pushed Bitcoin ( BTC ) down by 1.4% at press time, trading slightly above $94,000. Meanwhile, according to an earlier report by crypto.news, analysts expect a drop below the key $95,000 support level to potentially trigger a further slump for the leading crypto asset, with BTC targeting $88K.
