Total crypto (altcoin) market cap falls >=20% peak-to-trough at some point on or before 2021-04-30.
Criterion is total crypto/altcoin market cap falling >=20% peak-to-trough on or before 2021-04-30. Two qualifying market-wide corrections occurred in-window: the late-Feb 2021 selloff (BTC ~26%, with the total/altcoin market cap contracting alongside) and the mid-to-late-April 2021 pullback (BTC ~23%). resolved_on set to the late-February trough (2021-02-23), the first correction and the one matching the 'next few weeks' framing. Evidence cited is BTC-led; an exact TOTAL/OTHERS market-cap peak-to-trough percentage from a primary aggregator (CoinGecko/CoinMarketCap historical) would tighten this, but a >=20% broad-market drawdown in the window is not in dispute.

Outcome evidence
Bitcoin peaked at ~$58,352 on Feb 21, 2021, then flash-crashed to roughly $43,700 by late February — a ~26% peak-to-trough decline — dragging the broad crypto market down with it within the 'next few weeks' referenced in the claim.
A further, deeper correction occurred within the window: Bitcoin plunged from above $64,000 on April 14 to below $49,000 on April 23, 2021 (~23%), confirming a significant market-wide correction on or before 2021-04-30.
