This afternoon, $BTC is still hovering around $81,700 after briefly touching a low of $80,939 this morning. $ETH is also in the red, around $2,400, and Fear & Greed plunged from 68 to 50 in a day. 😅
What’s interesting: the drop wasn’t caused by crypto news. Fears of a US–Iran war, plus Tesla/Meta earnings that made the market doubt AI spending, were the culprits. 24-hour liquidations topped $470 million, mostly longs getting wiped out. Even $SOL’s Alpenglow upgrade overnight couldn’t save the price.
The key lesson: crypto is moving with macro factors now, not crypto news itself. A simple tip: check the macro calendar (US data, geopolitics, major earnings) before using leverage — reduce leverage when event risk is high.
