Bitcoin (BTC) slid to $26,500 as interest rates and the U.S. dollar surged, while equities declined. The Federal Reserve's hawkish stance on keeping financial conditions tight and interest rates high for longer put pressure on crypto firms. The equity sell-off could drag BTC prices lower, according to QCP Capital. Higher rates also increase refinancing costs for crypto firms, making borrowing and refinancing a challenge.
