BTC-pumpning ner igen: Massiva långa likvidationer på 320 miljoner dollar

The cryptocurrency market is experiencing another turbulent day as Bitcoin (BTC) has sharply lost value, dropping to around $84,610, which represents a 5.58% decline over the last 24 hours. This drop is accompanied by massive position liquidations, including longs worth approximately $320 million. The total volume of liquidations in the cryptocurrency market over the day reached $804.48 million, with the lion's share falling on BTC - $313.23 million for longs and only $11.99 million for shorts.

According to market analysis, this BTC crash marks the lowest level since mid-December 2025, when the price fell to $85,200 during morning trading in the US. Experts attribute the decline to several factors: a reversal in gold's growth (which previously reached $5,600), a drop in Nasdaq due to Microsoft stocks, as well as macroeconomic pressure from the US Federal Reserve System, which is keeping rates at a high level. Geopolitical tensions and the absence of fresh capital are also contributing to the risky sentiment in the market, where 90 out of the top-100 cryptocurrencies have suffered losses.

The overall cryptocurrency market capitalization decreased by 1.7% to $3.06 trillion, with a trading volume of $124 billion. Ethereum (ETH) also suffered, falling 2.5% to $2,942, while altcoins like Solana (SOL) and Avalanche (AVAX) lost 8% or more. Analysts from Amberdata note that BTC is testing key support at $86,000, and although funding remains positive (average rate +0.14%), traders are accumulating positions in anticipation of a recovery.

Experts advise investors to be cautious: while this may be a period of consolidation for a "necessary reboot," the likelihood of further decline persists unless positive signals appear, such as a rate cut by the Fed later this year.
