Bitcoin's price fell to approximately $65,948 on Wednesday, reflecting a broader downturn in the cryptocurrency market. This decline was driven by substantial ETF outflows, with over $1 billion in liquidations reported. Specifically, $519.2 million was withdrawn from Bitcoin ETFs, while Ethereum ETFs saw outflows of $90.2 million. In addition to Bitcoin, other cryptocurrencies like Ethereum, XRP, and Dogecoin dropped by up to 4%. Data from Coinglass indicated that 202,991 traders were liquidated, contributing to a total loss of $1.14 billion within 24 hours. Analysts suggest that Bitcoin's monthly Bollinger Band Width is at an all-time low, indicating extreme market compression and historically low volatility. This situation could lead to a significant breakout once the market pressure is released. Despite the current volatility, Bitcoin's price structure continues to adhere to established market-cycle mechanics, raising questions about future price movements.
