Crypto markets are pulling back today, with the total market cap falling to $2.68 trillion, down 1.0% over the past 24 hours on trading volume of $62.13 billion. Bitcoin dropped to $77,664.88, down 0.8%, while Ethereum slipped to $2,417.73, down 2.0%. XRP fell to $1.35, down 3.4%. The pullback comes amid broader risk-off sentiment across markets, with renewed geopolitical tension in the Middle East weighing on investor appetite for higher-risk assets. Crypto has historically tracked this pattern closely, pulling back alongside equities and other risk assets whenever regional conflict headlines resurface, as traders rotate toward safer holdings until the picture becomes clearer.
