According to CoinDesk, Bitcoin fell below $77 000, while Zcash showed the largest decline among the mentioned assets. Over the past 24 hours, 95 out of 100 assets in the CoinDesk 100 index have declined.

Over the week, Bitcoin lost more than 5%. CoinDesk links the market context to traders betting on a rate hike by the U.S. Federal Reserve.

If the described dynamics persist, the next significant signal will be a change in the breadth of the decline across assets and further movement of Bitcoin relative to the $77 000 level. However, the provided material contains only a brief synopsis of the publication, so details of the sell-off and the extent of the impact of rate expectations remain unclear.
