Things move fast in the cryptocurrency space, and the landscape tends to change quickly, especially price-wise. This has indeed been the past within the past seven days.

It was just a week ago when Bitcoins price was soaring high, charting fresh all-time highs almost daily. The latest peak came last Thursday when BTC neared $73,800 for the first time ever. However, the situation started to change a day later when the cryptocurrency dumped to $66,000, and its even worse now.

Last weekend saw minor recovery attempts but BTC dropped once more at the start of the current business week. The minor outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs and the fears regarding the Tuesday FOMC meeting were blamed at the time. Once that meeting was concluded, the asset indeed changed its trajectory, soared by 4% immediately and pumped above $68,000 on Wednesday morning.

However, that was short-lived as the ETF outflows continued and registered the fourth consecutive day of money being primarily taken out yesterday. This further depressed BTCs price, which failed at its recovery attempts and headed south once again today. As of now, the primary cryptocurrency struggles to remain above $63,000, as the asset is 5% down on the day and more than 7% within the past week.

Most altcoins have followed suit with notable weekly declines. Ethereum, for example, stood above $4,000 last week but is at $3,300 now. ADA, DOT, MATIC, and NEAR have dumped by double digits within the same timeframe.
