Bitcoin may have its worst October in 12 years, while ETH and SOL haven't fallen in sync
Bitcoin is likely to post its worst October performance in 12 years. The tech-stock sell-off has spread to gold, and BTC was among the first to take a hit. That suggests the pressure is coming from macro risk aversion, not a sudden problem within the crypto market.
ETH is currently at $2,243.29, and SOL at $95.07. Neither has followed BTC lower. Money isn't fleeing risk assets across the board; investors are being selective. BTC is the most vulnerable, while ETH and SOL are relatively resilient. The market action suggests Bitcoin's weakness is mainly due to external pressures. Ethereum and Solana haven't followed suit, indicating that the decline is concentrated in BTC alone—and that they may have an edge when the market rebounds.
If BTC fails to hold this month's low, October will likely end on a sour note. But if ETH and SOL can avoid breaking down at this point, they could be the first to attract buyers. Focusing on just one coin can leave you caught out. Watching BTC, ETH, and SOL together gives a clearer picture of the market's rhythm, so you don't get swept up in one-sided sentiment and can manage your holdings more steadily.
Tonight, we'll see whether BTC can stop its October slide and whether ETH and SOL can continue to hold firm. Tomorrow's open will tell.
