Bitcoin just lost $74,000 — and the afternoon now has a new question.

$BTC is at $73,641, down 0.5% today. It held $74,000 all morning, then slipped in the afternoon and has not taken it back yet.

The numbers right now:
• Price: $73,641
• 24h change: -0.5%
• 24h volume: $952M
• Day range: $73,390 – $74,811

The next line that matters is $73,200. Bitcoin is about $440 above it. If that holds into the US open, today is just a dip below a round number. If it breaks, the $72,700 area is next.

Fear & Greed is at 28 — still fear, a touch lower than yesterday's 29.

And the clock is still ticking on the MSCI story: 18 days to the Nov 30 close, when index funds have to sell Strategy stock. That selling has not happened yet. Miners are selling into strength too — MARA's $1.1B sale is the other side of the same coin. The one softer sign: the ETF outflow streak was shrinking into Tuesday.

Does $73,200 hold tonight, or does Bitcoin give that up too?

Not financial advice.
