New Delhi: Crypto markets continued to extend their losses on Monday, with all eyes on the US Fed meeting outcome.

Bitcoin plunged below the $19,000 mark, whereas Ethereum sank 10 per cent, barely holding $1,300 levels. Some experts believe that Ethereum’s merge was not undertaken at an opportune time.

All top crypto tokens are trading in deep red. Ethereum, Polygon, Shiba Inu, Cardano and Avalanche plunged 10-11 per cent. Dogecoin, Solana, XRP and Polkadot plunged 7-9 per cent.

The global cryptocurrency market cap was trading significantly lower at $909.80 billion, dropping as much as 7 per cent in the last 24 hours. However, the total trading volume zoomed about 45 per cent, close to $69.53 billion.
