Bitcoin Slips Under $60,000 Again as Crypto Market Faces Broad Pressure
Markets
Bitcoin has dipped below $60,000, dropping 5.4% in the past 24 hours to $59,600 amid a broader crypto market downturn. Other major cryptocurrencies, including ETH and SOL, also saw significant losses. Analysts attribute the decline to a mix of factors, including the "September Effect" and a potential rebound in the U.S. Dollar Index.
