Bitcoin fell nearly 2% to about $79,800 as of Monday Asian morning hours as traders cut risk ahead of this week’s Federal Reserve meeting and another leg down in the AI trade weighed on tech stocks across the region. Selling hit almost every major token. Ether dropped nearly 3% to just above $2,300, and XRP lost about 3% to $1.28. SOL slid 2% and is barely holding $100. DOGE, ZEC, HYPE and BNB each fell 1% to 2%, while TRX was the only major in the green, up less than 1%, according to CoinDesk data.
