CryptoPotato reported that a sell-off on Wall Street triggered a broader wave of losses across the crypto market. Its November 6 market recap highlighted declines in 
Bitcoin, 
XRP and 
Hyperliquid, or HYPE, alongside other digital assets.
Bitcoin traded at $75,913 at the time of the recap, down 4.70% over 24 hours and 1.72% over seven days. Its $1.53 trillion market capitalization remained the largest among the listed assets. XRP fell more sharply at $1.19, losing 9.24% over 24 hours and 4.57% over seven days; its market capitalization was $75.43 billion.
Hyperliquid also recorded substantial weakness, trading at $78.25 after a 4.37% daily decline. Its seven-day loss was steeper at 14.57%, while its market capitalization stood at $18.75 billion. These figures show that losses extended beyond Bitcoin and that performance differed materially across major crypto assets.
The broader crypto market was broadly lower, with total market capitalization at $2.62 trillion. The Fear & Greed index stood at 28, placing sentiment in the Fear zone. The immediate significance is the breadth of the decline and the accompanying negative sentiment, while subsequent trading will determine whether Bitcoin’s $75,913 level and XRP’s $1.19 price hold or become further reference points.
