Recession worries, the downturn in Indian and global equities, and the US Fed\u2019s resolve to implement aggressive interest rate hikes weighed on the market, driving it down by 0.74% at the time of writing.<\/p>\n<h2>Significant developments<\/h2>\n<p>Here are the key market-specific findings to keep tabs on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The overall crypto market cap is at $927.08 billion\u2014 lower than it was over the weekend.<\/li>\n<li>Bitcoin market dominance continues to hold above 39%\u2014 39.03% to be precise.<\/li>\n<li>Bitcoin (BTC) is trading at $18,877 at publishing time, with a 1% increase in the 24-hour trading volume.<\/li>\n<li>ETH manages to hold onto the key support level of $1,302, despite a 1.36% dip day-on-day.<\/li>\n<li>The onshore crypto index (CRE8) is down by 0.48%, dragged down by a weaker rupee and bearish market sentiment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Key coins<\/h2>\n<p>Top cryptos such as BTC and ETH are trading flat at the moment, gaining over half a percent each over the past hour or so. Most weekly losses have been erased, and it would be interesting to see what these stalwarts have in store for the investors as the day wears on.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that BTC volume moving into the exchanges is at a 112-day low, as of 24 September. Fewer cryptos moving into the exchanges means less selling pressure. Still, keep your fingers crossed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-24966 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/coinswitch.co\/switch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screenshot-2022-09-26-at-7.52.40-AM-1024x502.png\" alt=\"market update BTC inflow\" width=\"800\" height=\"392\" srcset=\"https:\/\/coinswitch.co\/switch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screenshot-2022-09-26-at-7.52.40-AM-1024x502.png 1024w, https:\/\/coinswitch.co\/switch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screenshot-2022-09-26-at-7.52.40-AM-300x147.png 300w, https:\/\/coinswitch.co\/switch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screenshot-2022-09-26-at-7.52.40-AM-768x376.png 768w, https:\/\/coinswitch.co\/switch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screenshot-2022-09-26-at-7.52.40-AM-1536x752.png 1536w, https:\/\/coinswitch.co\/switch\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Screenshot-2022-09-26-at-7.52.40-AM-2048x1003.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Source: C<a href=\"https:\/\/markets.chainalysis.com\/#trading-inflows\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">hainalysis<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Most other top 10 cryptos were more or less steady, barring Solana (SOL), which is down by 2.64% at release.
