Dogecoin drops 8% as bitcoin falls below $84,000
Rising U.S. Treasury yields, the highest since 2007, helped pressure crypto markets, with the strongest business survey in five years and a weak five-year note sale cited as drivers.
CoinDesk reports that crypto markets fell broadly, with Dogecoin down 8% and bitcoin trading below $84,000 as U.S. Treasury yields jumped to their highest level since 2007.
The outlet links the selloff to higher borrowing costs after a rebound in oil, the strongest U.S. business survey in five years, and a poorly received five-year note sale.
As yields rose, DOGE led token declines, reflecting the broader risk-off move that followed the move higher in Treasury rates.
