Bitcoin (BTC) has experienced a sharp decline over the past two days, prompting analysts to warn cryptocurrency traders that "January could be a dangerous month." According to CoinDesk, a cryptocurrency-focused media outlet, analysts have noted that "macro headwinds for risk assets are expected due to the Federal Reserve's hawkish stance, a surge in long-term Treasury yields, entrenched inflation figures, and the potential for a U.S. government shutdown." Additionally, they mentioned that "due to the strong performance of U.S. economic data, such as the ISM Non-Manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index released on the 7th, investors have lowered their expectations for a rate cut this year."
