Bitcoin and Ether experienced declines in the crypto market, with Bitcoin falling to its lowest price this month. Ether's decline was steeper due to a major hack on the ByBit platform. ByBit has assured users that it has restored customer assets and closed the "ether gap" caused by the hack. The hack has been linked to the Lazarus Group, a North Korean state-backed hacker collective. US stocks also saw a decline, with major indices faltering. Solana performed the worst among major cryptocurrencies, plunging nearly 10% in the past 24 hours. Several experts have expressed concerns about the future performance of Bitcoin and the risks to the US economy, citing weak real incomes, a weakening housing market, and lower spending levels by governments. They anticipate a decline in longer-term interest rates and a selloff in equity prices.
