The crypto market crash resumed last week as Bitcoin and most altcoins plunged by double digits. Bitcoin remains below the key support at $90,000, while Ethereum has dropped to $3,000. Other tokens like Cardano, Shiba Inu, and Dogecoin have also plummeted by double digits. <\/p>\n

Crypto market crash could stall in case of a more dovish Federal Reserve <\/h2>\n

One potential catalyst that may help to stall the crypto market crash<\/a> is the upcoming Federal Reserve interest rate decision<\/a>,which will come out on Wednesday this week.<\/p>\n

Historically, the final decision has been one of the most important ones in the market as it sets the tone for what to expect in the new year. <\/p>\n

This meeting will be key because it will shed more light on the divisions among officials, with some of them supporting cuts and others supporting a pause. <\/p>\n

For example, an official like Jeff Schmid has opposed cuts, arguing that inflation has remained above the target point of 2% for over 4 years. He argues that cutting interest rates will stimulate inflation.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, some Fed officials argue that the bank should cut rates because of the cracks in the labor market. A report released last week showed that the economy lost 36,000 jobs, the worst performance in over 2 years.<\/p>\n

Therefore, an interest rate cut and a dovish policy may help to end the ongoing crypto market crash.<\/p>\n

Cardano Midnight mainnet launch<\/h2>\n

The other main catalyst for the crypto market will be the upcoming Midnight launch by Cardano, the tenth biggest coin in the industry.<\/p>\n

Midnight is a major project that has been developed in the past few years, and Charles Hoskinson and the team believes that it will solve the main challenges facing the network. <\/p>\n

For example, they expect that Midnight will boost the network’s stablecoin volume and decentralized finance (DeFi) total value locked, which has lagged the market in the past few years.<\/p>\n

Still, it is unclear whether the Midnight launch will have a positive impact on the crypto market, as Charles Hoskinson has a known record of overpromising and underdelivering. <\/p>\n

Top token unlocks <\/h2>\n

The other main catalyst that may have a negative impact on the crypto market is the upcoming token unlocks. Data compiled by DeFi Llama shows that tokens worth over $30 million will be unlocked this week. <\/p>\n

Flare tokens worth over $3.4 million will be unlocked this week. Historically, the FLR token normally drops by about 10% ten days after the unlock.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, $10 million worth of EigenLayer tokens will be unlocked on Wednesday, while $20.3 million worth of Bluefin will be released. Other major tokens with unlocks this week are Aptos, Story, Arbitrum, and Starknet.<\/p>\n

Crypto ETF inflows <\/h2>\n

One reason behind the ongoing crypto market crash is that American investors have been pulling their assets from crypto ETFs. Data shows that spot Bitcoin ETFs shed over $87 million in assets last week. BlackRock’s IBIT ETF<\/a> has shed over $2.7 billion in assets in the last few months.<\/p>\n

Ethereum ETFs also shed over $65 million in assets last week, bringing the cumulative total inflows to over $12.8 billion. On the other hand, tokens like XRP, SOL, DOGE, LINK, and HBAR ETFs have done well in terms of inflows. A surge in inflows may help to offset the ongoing crypto market crash.<\/p>\n
