Bitcoin dropped to $81,382 on Monday evening, falling below $82,000 as crypto liquidations exceeded $770 million. Traders pointed to weak institutional inflows into bitcoin exchange-traded funds and a sharp decline in South Korean stocks as key drivers. The sell-off hit leveraged positions hard, with longs bearing the brunt of forced liquidations across major exchanges.

Why now: A sudden price drop and mass liquidations are unsettling crypto investors worried about wider market weakness.
