what happened
Major cryptocurrencies traded lower in the afternoon session, and trading activity thinned out considerably. According to Coinglass, bitcoin's 24-hour volume dropped 39% to $49.2 billion, ethereum's fell 42% to $34.3 billion, XRP's declined 42% to $2.1 billion and HYPE's fell 41% to $1.8 billion.
Bitcoin slipped 1% to $81,177, ethereum fell 1.3% to $2,419 and XRP slid 2.8% to $1.30. The same data showed bitcoin futures outflows of $75.2 million against inflows of $31 million over the last five minutes. The information is based on TradingView's report.
why it matters
A sharp drop in volume usually signals fading interest in cryptocurrencies and thinner market liquidity, which can make price moves more abrupt. Net outflows from bitcoin futures at this point point to caution among market participants.
