Bitcoin drops to $73,477 in a 15-minute plunge; liquidations exceed $1 billion
Bitcoin fell from $75,690 to $73,477 in just 15 minutes late Sunday, marking its lowest price since early 2025, as thin weekend trading amplified a sharp wave of selling.
The move triggered more than $1 billion in liquidations across cryptocurrency markets. Two macroeconomic developments added pressure: a scandal involving Nvidia and stalled nuclear negotiations with Iran. Both factors dampened risk appetite amid reduced market liquidity.
