60-second summary

Ethereum, XRP and Solana each tumble as macro pressures trigger outsized drawdowns across altcoins, analysts report, with ETH falling roughly 3% while XRP and SOL slide 2‑3% amid tightening risk sentiment and weaker fiat flows. The broad sell‑off underscores heightened sensitivity to economic data, suggesting continued volatility and potential further depreciation for the wider cryptocurrency market.
