Bitcoin and Ethereum Prices Decline Amid Fed Rate Uncertainty and Weak Institutional Demand

Analysed 19 Jun 2026·4 sources analysed·India·Business
Bitcoin and Ethereum Prices Decline Amid Fed Rate Uncertainty and Weak Institutional DemandPreviousNext

Bitcoin traded near $62,500-$64,000 amid uncertainty over the US Federal Reserve's interest rate outlook and subdued institutional demand. Both Bitcoin and Ethereum declined by around 2-3%, pressured by expectations of prolonged higher rates, weak inflows, and ETF outflows. Analysts noted resistance near key technical levels and cautious market sentiment, with support zones between $61,000 and $63,500 critical to prevent further declines. The broader crypto market capitalization also fell amid these factors.
