The bullish momentum that propelled (BTC) price to a 2023 high at $23,048 appears to have waned on Jan. 25 as the price dropped to a intraday low at $22,300. The pause in bullish momentum appears connected to lowered earnings expectations from big tech companies and the Federal Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC).

The contraction in Bitcoin price follows a market-wide decline, and analysts fear that the crypto market could face considerable danger from the FOMC decision.
