The crypto market is experiencing a downturn, with 
Bitcoin's price falling by 1.41% in the last 24 hours to $82,401. This decline contributes to a 7-day loss of 4.13% for the leading cryptocurrency.
The total crypto market cap has also decreased, now standing at $2.84 trillion. This downturn reflects broader market trends, as investors react to various economic and regulatory factors.
Despite the market downturn, the Bitcoin DeFi Total Value Locked (TVL) remains at $4.36 billion, according to DeFiLlama. This figure underscores the continued interest and investment in decentralized finance solutions built on the Bitcoin blockchain.
Regulatory developments and the growth of Web3 technologies are also key areas of focus, as they have the potential to shape the future of the crypto industry. The Fear & Greed Index remains in 'Greed' territory at 57, indicating that investor sentiment is still somewhat positive despite the market decline.
Looking ahead, market participants will likely keep a close eye on regulatory announcements and technological advancements in the DeFi and Web3 sectors. These factors could play a significant role in determining the direction of the crypto market in the coming weeks.

The chart plots BTC's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from Token Times's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 BTC ≈ ₹8.56M (about $82,668.00), down 1.3% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 7.9% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
