The crypto market saw a mixed day with
Bitcoin experienced a quick drop of over $1,500 in minutes during the US trading session. It fell from highs near $69,200 to close around $67,500. This
Trading volume for BTC stayed steady at about $35 billion, showing normal trader activity. The price had been in a tight range before the sudden sell-off. Bitcoin’s fall made up over 80% of the total market drop, down 0.78% in 24 hours.
This move triggered $67 million in liquidations, with 74% from long positions. A break below the $65,000 support could spark more selling and liquidations.
While Bitcoin slipped, top altcoins held strong:
These coins stayed in tight ranges, proving resilience. The total crypto market cap briefly topped $2.3 trillion, though trading volume dipped from $98 billion to $84 billion.
Santiment data reveals trader sentiment at its lowest in years. Words like ‘angry’, ‘frustrated’, and ‘offended’ hit peaks not seen since major political events. Despite some market recovery, fear dominates.
Extreme negative sentiment often marks buying chances for contrarian investors. When everyone is fearful, smart money steps in.
Spot Bitcoin ETFs faced four straight weeks of outflows, with $133 million leaving last week. On-chain data shows weaker accumulation than past rallies, like the November bounce.
Institutional buying has slowed. A shift to positive ETF flows could signal renewed confidence and push prices higher.
Bitcoin must defend $65,000-$67,000 support. Resistance is at the 7-day SMA near $70,000. Watch for:
Holding support avoids deeper drops. Breaking $70,000 flips the short-term trend bullish.
The dip stems from Bitcoin weakness, boosted by liquidations but offset by some inflows. The market seeks a base amid fear. Key question: Can spot demand hold $65,000, or will we retest lows?
Expect higher volatility this week. Bulls aim high, bears push low. Altcoins’ stability could draw rotation if Bitcoin struggles.
