The overall crypto market cap has lost $15 billion in the past day, falling below the $800 billion mark on CoinMarketCap. Bitcoin, which had come close to reaching the $17,000 mark earlier this week, has also seen a decline, falling 1% to a current price of around $16,500.

The altcoin market had been relatively stable in recent days, with Ethereum hovering around the $1,200 mark for the past week. However, the market has taken a turn for the worse today, with several major altcoins experiencing significant price drops.

It remains to be seen whether these declines are a temporary blip or a sign of further troubles to come in the altcoin market. Investors will be watching closely to see how the market recovers in the coming days.
