A digital asset sell-off describes a period of intense selling pressure in the cryptocurrency market, leading to a rapid and significant decline in the prices of various digital assets. This market event is typically driven by factors such as negative news, regulatory concerns, macroeconomic instability, or a broad loss of investor confidence. Sell-offs can result in substantial capital depreciation for holders and often precede periods of increased market volatility. It signifies a collective shift towards risk aversion among market participants.
