This, combined with Fed Chairman Jerome Powell's hawkish comments, weighed on the price of Bitcoin. According to data from coindesk, Bitcoin last slid 5.31% to US$100,643.18. Powell remarked that the Fed does not want to participate in a government-led strategic Bitcoin reserve, emphasizing that the Fed is not allowed to own Bitcoin.Related NewsInitial Jobless Claims for Dec/28 in United States is 211K, lower than the previous value of 219K.
