Bitcoin Sees Seven Straight Weeks of Losses For the First Time

Bitcoin (BTC) saw seven straight weeks of losses for the time first in its history amid a downturn in broader markets, stricter crypto regulations, waning retail interest, and systemic risks in the crypto space, data shows.

Bitcoin neared the $47,000 level in mid-March in a run that lasted a couple of weeks after a fall to $37,000 from November’s lifetime highs of nearly $69,000. The asset has since slid every week and could fall to as low as $20,000 if current market conditions continue.
