Bitcoin, Ethereum crash continues as US 10-year Treasury yield surpasses June high

(BTC) and Ethereum’s native token, Ether (ETH), started the week on a depressive note as investors braced themselves for a flurry of rate hike decisions from central banks, including the U.S. Federal Reserve and Bank of England.

On Sept. 19, BTC’s price failed to regain the $20,000 psychological support zone. The pair slipped by 6.5% to around $18,250, while ETH dropped 4% to approximately $1,280.
