Listen Later

In the past 48 hours, the crypto market has entered a volatile pullback, with Bitcoin dropping below 77,000 dollars after testing 80,000 dollars, triggering over 300 million dollars in liquidations across exchanges like Binance and Bybit.[13][6][7] This marks a sharp reversal from nine straight days of 2.12 billion dollars in ETF inflows that pushed Bitcoin to a 79,000-dollar high, signaling fading institutional momentum amid Fed uncertainty.[4][5][8]
Major coins followed suit: Ethereum fell to around 2,300 dollars, down 3.76 percent; XRP dipped 3.05 percent to 1.32 dollars; BNB lost 1.76 percent.[4][12] Total market cap slid 1.07 percent to 2.66 trillion dollars, with 85,000 traders liquidated in 24 hours, dominated by longs.[13][6] The fear and greed index plunged from 62 to 38, sparking panic selling among retail holders facing unrealized losses near recent peaks.[13]
Bullish undercurrents persist, however. Bitcoin shorts piled up 1.4 billion dollars near 80,000 dollars, risking a squeeze if it breaks higher, backed by 824 million dollars in spot ETF inflows and 255 million dollars in spot buys last week.[3][5] XRP shows promise with a confirmed cup-and-handle pattern, potentially pumping big in the next 48 hours per analyst Maxi.[1] Crypto funds logged 1.4 billion dollars in third straight weekly inflows, the strongest since January.[8]
No major deals, launches, or regulatory shifts emerged, but Kelp DAO suffered a 292 million dollar bridge hack, freezing Aave markets.[8] Compared to last week's rally highs, sentiment has cooled from greed to fear, testing support at 77,000 dollars.[14] Industry leaders like ETF managers respond by sustaining buys, while traders hedge via negative funding rates and put premiums.[5] Watch Fed decisions and GDP data for repricing in hours ahead.[9] Overall, volatility rules, blending correction risks with squeeze potential.
