Bitcoin experienced a slight drop in value on Thursday, trading at around US$27,500 after briefly surpassing US$28,000 on Wednesday due to a slowdown in U.S. inflation. The departure of major market makers Jane Street Group and Jump Crypto from cryptocurrency trading in the U.S. due to unfavorable regulations has raised concerns about liquidity. Among the top 10 non-stablecoin cryptocurrencies, Ether experienced the largest loss while Polkadot saw the greatest gains. Meanwhile, U.S. equity futures rose as inflation eased in April, leading to speculation that the Federal Reserve may pause its interest rate hikes in June.
