Cryptocurrencies are expected to be the most affected. We’re already seeing some initial declines, as both Bitcoin and Ethereum have dropped roughly 1.5% in value today.

Now, Bitcoin, having failed to keep his nose above the $72,500 resistance zone, formed a top near $73,800 and embarked on a fresh decline. A move below $72,500, you say? Dash it all, that’s like losing one’s ticket to the Ascot just as the race is about to begin. The price dipped below $71,500 and $71,200, hitting a low of $70,517, and is now consolidating losses below the 23.6% Fib retracement level. Not exactly the stuff of heroes, what?
