Bitcoin and Altcoins Are Falling — Why Is the Crypto Market in the Red Today (July 25, 2025)?

Jakarta, Pintu News – The crypto market has come under immense pressure again today, with the global market capitalization plummeting by $105 billion. The price of Bitcoin (BTC) fell to $115,458, marking a 2.7% drop in the last 24 hours.

Altcoins were also affected, especially Pump.fun (PUMP) which led the list of decliners with a sharp correction of 21%. What are the main causes of today’s crypto market correction? Here’s the full analysis!

Crypto Market Capitalization Breaks Two Important Supports

The global crypto market capitalization is currently hovering around $3.72 trillion after breaking two crucial supports at $3.80 trillion and $3.73 trillion.

The decline was driven by sharp weakness in major altcoins, including meme coin, which had previously driven the market rally. This correction raises concerns that the market could continue to fall deeper towards the next support at $3.61 trillion.

Even so, there is still a chance of a rebound if the market capitalization is able to reclaim the $3.73 trillion support. If that happens, the market could potentially recover to $3.80 trillion. However, it will largely depend on investor sentiment and the fundamental strength of the major crypto assets. Without a quick recovery, selling pressure could intensify and exacerbate the weakness.

Bitcoin Breaks Support, Risk of Deeper Correction

After consolidating for almost two weeks above $117,261, the price of Bitcoin (BTC) has finally fallen below that level. BTC is currently trading at around $115,458, signaling serious market weakness. If this bearish trend continues, the price of BTC could potentially drop to $111,187 (around Rp1,806 billion).

However, the chances of a rebound are still open if BTC manages to stay above the psychological support level of $115,000. A recovery above $117,261 could be a short-term bullish signal and invalidate the ongoing downward trend.

Despite institutional support such as MicroStrategy’s plan to buy $2 billion worth of BTC, current market conditions continue to pressure the price. Negative sentiment could overshadow BTC’s movement if there are no new positive catalysts in the near future.

XRP & PUMP Lead Altcoin Decline

Altcoin Ripple (XRP) is also under heavy pressure after dropping more than 15% from its high of $3.65 on July 17. This drop was triggered by a sell-off from Chris Larsen, one of the founders of Ripple, who moved 50 million XRP to various exchange platforms.

Data from blockchain researcher ZachXBT shows that around $140 million of XRP has moved to off-ramps or centralized exchanges.

Meanwhile, the new token Pump.fun (PUMP) fell sharply by 21% in a day, now trading at $0.00242. Since its launch, PUMP has lost over 63% of its value as it lost momentum after the initial hype.

The closest support is at $0.00212, which is likely to be tested if the selling pressure continues. If it is able to bounce back, PUMP should break back to $0.00249 to open the door to $0.00292 as a short-term target.

Conclusion

Today’s crypto market decline is a warning to investors that volatility is still high and price movements can change drastically in a short period of time. While assets such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ripple (XRP) have fundamental support, technical pressure and market sentiment remain major factors in the short term.

The chances of a rebound remain open, but investors need to look at important support and resistance levels before making a decision. For now, caution is key in dealing with the sluggish crypto market.
