At the same time, Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF outflows have also caused significant stress on the market, leading the domain to shift its price and adjust accordingly. The major price dump happened around the time when the EU markets opened. Around 2 AM EST, major European markets, including Frankfurt, Paris, Madrid, and Zurich, along with London and UK exchanges, typically open. At the same time, key Asian markets such as Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shanghai also come online. The overlap of these sessions may have played a crucial role in intensifying the market pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Additional scenarios, such as US regulatory policy uncertainty, may also add significant pressure on the market, triggering a sell-off.
