Bitcoin fell further Thursday morning, extending losses from the New Year rally as risk appetite waned amid signals from the Federal Reserve that it may not cut rates as quickly as hoped in 2025.

周四上午，由于美联储发出信号称 2025 年可能不会像希望的那样快速降息，风险偏好减弱，比特币进一步下跌，延续了新年涨势的跌幅。

The world’s largest cryptocurrency fell 1.2% to $93,775.0 by 07:30 ET (12:30 GMT), after hitting an earlier low of $92,540.0.

Elevated interest rates tend to hurt speculative assets such as cryptocurrencies by reducing traders’ appetite for risk.

The prospect of continued rate hikes, together with the DOJ’s Bitcoin sales, created a challenging environment for crypto traders, highlighting the market’s sensitivity to regulatory and macroeconomic shifts.
