Ethereum also temporarily fell below $2,400, reaching a low of $2,388, with an intraday decline of over 9%.

2. November 14, 2024 speech: Powell made a hawkish speech, emphasizing the determination to control inflation and not rushing to cut interest rates. The price of Bitcoin sharply dropped from $91,846 to $88,289, and then continued to decline to a low of $86,700, with a drop of over $5,000.

3. December 19, 2024 speech: The Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point rate cut, but Powell said the Fed is close to slowing down the rate cut.
