- Bitcoin tumbled below US$24,000 late on Monday, hitting its lowest level since December 2020, as investors dump crypto amid a broader sell-off in risk assets.

- Meanwhile, a crypto lending company called Celsius has paused withdrawals for its customers, sparking fears of contagion into the broader market.

- Macro factors are contributing to the bearishness in the crypto markets, with rampant inflation continuing and the Federal Reserve expected to hike interest rates this week to control rising prices.
