  • US stocks and Bitcoin are experiencing significant declines, with the Dow, S&P 500, and Nasdaq all falling.
  • Bitcoin has dropped more than 26% from its recent record high, erasing all gains for the year and entering a bear market.
  • Investors are moving away from risky assets like AI stocks and crypto due to uncertainty about Federal Reserve interest rate cuts.
  • Tech stocks, including Nvidia, Amazon, and Microsoft, have also seen declines, with the Nasdaq losing 6.5% since late October.
  • Bitcoin's decline is attributed to profit-taking by long-term holders and thinner order books post-October 10 liquidations.
  • Despite the downturn, some investors see the current market as an opportunity to buy Bitcoin at lower prices.
  • The crypto market is at an inflection point, with positive catalysts already priced in and increasing uncertainty about the future.
