What's still driving it

Same 3 headlines from this morning, no new catalyst yet:

Fed / inflation — traders pricing in a rate hike, dollar at 19-month high, 10-yr yield above 5.1%

Nvidia shock — Huang exit still weighing on all risk assets

Deleveraging — $1.47B - $1.64B liquidated in 24h across ∼185k traders, plus continued outflows from US spot Bitcoin ETFs

Levels to watch now

Support: $70,500 → then $69,000 → then $67,500 (today's low)

Resistance: Back above $70,000 is the first reclaim bulls need. If PPI came in hot, risk is a re-test of $65,000 - $67,500.

No major new global crypto headline in the last few hours — market is just digesting the morning crash.

Want me to ping you if BTC reclaims $70k or drops back below $68k?
