The rejection following the second attempt was particularly painful as the asset slumped to $112,000 a day later. Then came the US Fed&#8217;s decision to lower the interest rates, which is typically regarded as a bullish development for risk-on assets.<\/p>\n<p>However, BTC dropped once again, this time to under $110,000. After a brief and unsuccessful recovery attempt, the cryptocurrency <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/crypto-markets-shed-120-billion-overnight-as-bitcoin-plunges-by-4k-market-watch\/\">initiated<\/a> another leg down and dipped to $106,000 at the end of the business week.<\/p>\n<p>It recovered some ground during the weekend and jumped to $111,000 on Sunday. However, the bears <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/crypto-carnage-continues-btc-eth-xrp-plunge-further-as-liquidations-top-1-1b\/\">reemerged<\/a> on Monday and drove bitcoin south to under $106,000. The pain continued in the past 12 hours or so as BTC <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bitcoin-btc-loses-its-strongest-floor-in-months-dip-buying-starts-but-lacks-conviction\/\">dumped<\/a> to just over $103,500 &#8211; the lowest level since late June (excluding the flash crash on Binance on October 17 to $101,000).<\/p>\n<p>This means that bitcoin&#8217;s market cap has plummeted to $2.070 trillion on CG, while its dominance over the alts is up to 58.5%.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1418723\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1418723\" style=\"width: 1835px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/BTCUSD-5.png\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1418723\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">BTCUSD.

APT leads this negative trend with a massive 12% drop, followed by WLFI, TON, ATOM, CRO, KAS, BGB, ASTER, and many others.<\/p>\n<p>The larger caps are in no better shape. Ethereum has slumped below $3,500, BNB plunged to $950, and XRP is down to $2.26. ADA, LINK, SOL, HYPE, TRX, DOGE, BCH, and SUI are deep in the red as well.<\/p>\n<p>In contrast, DASH has skyrocketed by more than 70%, followed by ICP&#8217;s 35% surge, and ZEC&#8217;s 23% pump.<\/p>\n<p>The total crypto market cap has lost another $150 billion in a day and is down to $3.530 trillion on CG.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1418724\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1418724\" style=\"width: 1881px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Screenshot-2025-11-04-122620.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1418724 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Screenshot-2025-11-04-122620.png\" alt=\"Cryptocurrency Market Overview.
