As selling pressure deepens in the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin has fallen to a new one-year low.

The largest cryptocurrency hit $73,500, its lowest price since Donald Trump’s election victory in the US.

Ethereum (ETH) fell by 6.5% to around $2,200, while Solana (SOL) dropped by 5.5%, falling below $100 and reaching levels around $97.

The decline in the crypto market is mirroring widespread sell-offs in the technology and finance sectors. Liquidity concerns and macroeconomic uncertainties, in particular, have accelerated the flight from risky assets.

The sell-off gained momentum following an announcement on Friday, January 23rd. BlackRock’s private equity fund, BlackRock TCP Capital (TCPC), announced plans to revise its net worth down by 19 percent. This development heightened concerns that the economic outlook might not be as strong as headline data suggests and that liquidity in the system could be tighter than anticipated.

The market downturn also affected large institutional portfolios. Ethereum bull Tom Lee’s Ethereum portfolio, managed through Bitmine, incurred total losses exceeding $7.23 billion. While the current value of his total $16.39 billion investment has fallen to $9.15 billion, the unrealized loss in the portfolio stands at $7.23 billion. Year-to-date losses have exceeded $3.54 billion.

Strategy, led by Michael Saylor, has a total Bitcoin reserve worth $52.87 billion. The company holds 713,502 BTC, with an average cost of $76,052. At current prices, the company is approximately 2.5% in the red, representing a loss of around $1.39 billion.

Patriots Hall Of Famer Julian Edelman Is A Rising Media Star At FOX Sports

Patriots Hall Of Famer Julian Edelman Is A Rising Media Star At FOX Sports

The post Patriots Hall Of Famer Julian Edelman Is A Rising Media Star At FOX Sports appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Julian Edelman has a burgeoning media career, including as an analyst on FOX NFL Kickoff. Lily Hernandez The day before the Kansas City Chiefs hosted the Philadelphia Eagles, Julian Edelman was in a reflective mood. The last weekend he had spent in Arrowhead Stadium was when he helped the New England Patriots defeat the Chiefs in overtime to advance to the Patriots’ last Super Bowl. “I was definitely getting some flashbacks,” Edelman exclusively shared. “It’s definitely a special place to come. Not because we won (but) because we knew how hard it was to win here. This place rocks. Arrowhead is one of the most electric opponent stadiums that we played in. It was one of the greatest to be the villain.” Edelman had seven catches and 96 yards in that 37-31 overtime win against the Chiefs, paving the way for Super Bowl LIII, a game in which he won Super Bowl MVP. That may have been the apex of his playing career, which earned him induction into the Patriots’ Hall of Fame this weekend, but his post-NFL media career is ascending. He’s not only an analyst on FOX NFL Kickoff, the show that precedes FOX NFL Sunday, but also has his own production company and hosts two weekly podcasts. “It kind of (just) happened,” Edelman said. “My goal is really to just be around football in some form or fashion.” Julian Edelman of the New England Patriots celebrates after scoring in the fourth quarter against the Seattle Seahawks during Super Bowl XLIX.

Then for his first two years out of the league, he was an…
