Bitcoin Remains Below $115,000 as Altcoins Struggle Amid Market Uncertainty

Bitcoin (BTC) remains below $115,000 after a weekend drop of nearly $6,000, leading to over $1 billion in liquidations of leveraged long positions. Current trading is around $114,200.

Ether (ETH) recovered to approximately $3,650 after dipping below $3,550, supported by institutional interest. Key points include:

  • Altcoins struggle; Solana (SOL) down nearly 20% and XRP stagnant near $3
  • Recent U.S. jobs report weaker than expected, increasing market caution
  • Significant outflows from Bitcoin and Ether spot ETFs noted on Friday
  • QCP Capital suggests that the market structure is still bullish despite current drawdowns
  • Interest in BTC options markets indicates some anticipation for a rebound

Traders are monitoring ETF flow data closely. A recovery above $115,000 could shift sentiment positively, while continued outflows may lead to further de-risking in markets.
