Bitcoin’s price sharply declined nearly 2% on the 1-hour chart, falling below $95,000, deviating from its recent upward momentum toward the $100,000 milestone.
Data from CryptoSlate shows that Bitcoin reached a low of $94,824 before recovering to $96,007 at the time of writing. This brief dip occurred just four days after the top crypto surpassed the $95,000 mark for the first time on Nov. 21.

When losses in other assets are accounted for, the total industry-wide losses rise to over $120 million in the past hour and $180 million in the last four hours.
