The crypto market is facing a wave of fear today, with Bitcoin sliding back to $88K and Ethereum losing 7% in 24 hours. Solana and other majors are also under pressure, driving the global market cap down 4.1% to $3.09T. While short-term volatility is rattling traders, institutional flows and ETF developments continue to signal strong long-term adoption. This correction looks more like a healthy reset after BTC’s run toward $100K rather than the start of a prolonged downturn. Smart money is watching for accumulation opportunities as retail panic sets in."
