Bitcoin falls below $84,000 as $550 million liquidated
Original: Bitcoin sank below $84,000 as $550 million in crypto bets were liquidated
Bitcoin dropped below $84,000, triggering the forced liquidation of around $550 million in leveraged cryptocurrency positions. The sell-off wiped out traders betting on higher prices across crypto markets, adding to pressure on an asset class that has struggled to hold recent gains. Traders are watching whether the decline deepens or stabilises in the coming sessions.
Why now: A sharp Bitcoin price drop with heavy liquidations is moving markets and hitting leveraged traders.
