Bitcoin Slumps to $77,000 Amid Lending Rate Anxiety

Bitcoin has plummeted to $77,000 as market anxiety over lending rates returns.

The sudden drop marks a significant reversal for the cryptocurrency, which had been gaining momentum in recent months. Market observers are attributing the decline to concerns over lending rates, specifically those associated with stablecoins.
