Just watched the market get hit pretty hard. Crypto's down across the board, and honestly it's not just one thing causing this. Bitcoin dropped below 75K for the first time in ages, and once that happened, it triggered a domino effect. All the traders with leveraged longs got liquidated, which turned into more selling pressure. Pretty brutal cycle.
What's interesting is the scale of it. We're talking about billions in liquidations over the past week alone, not just today's move. Open interest in futures is collapsing too, which tells you how fast leverage is unwinding. Add in some macro headwinds and risk-off sentiment across markets, and you've got a recipe for why crypto is tanking right now.
The key thing to watch is whether Bitcoin can hold above that 75K level. If it does, we might see some stabilization. If not, we're probably testing 70K next. Until the selling pressure eases and liquidations slow down, I'd expect this volatility to stick around. The whole market's just following Bitcoin's lead at this point.
