April 14th is definitely another black swan event in the cryptocurrency circle. The major events that occurred on this day undoubtedly had a profound impact on the cryptocurrency market. From several key factors pointed out by analysts, we can analyze how these events affect the market from several different perspectives.
First, geopolitical tensions, such as Iran's missile attack on Israel, usually increase market uncertainty and risk aversion. In this case, investors may seek safe-haven assets, and cryptocurrencies, as an emerging asset class, tend to be strongly affected by market sentiment. If market participants believe that cryptocurrencies do not provide sufficient security, they may choose to sell crypto assets and invest in traditional safe-haven assets such as gold or the US dollar, leading to selling pressure in the cryptocurrency market.
Secondly, the Bitcoin halving event is an important milestone in the cryptocurrency field. It means that the new Bitcoin rewards received by miners are reduced by half. This event is expected to affect the market in advance because both investors and miners will predict and prepare for the economic model after the halving. Halving may lead to a relative increase in mining costs. If the increase in market prices cannot cover the increase in costs, miners may face financial pressure, thereby increasing selling pressure in the market.
According to Coinglass data, as of now, in the past 24 hours, a total of 256,760 people have been liquidated, with a total liquidation amount of $962 million. The largest single liquidation occurred on Binance - BTCUSDT worth $8.4613 million. Among them, some investors failed to adjust their strategies and replenish margin in time, resulting in the liquidation of long and short contracts and serious asset losses.
In short, this black swan event reminds us that the cryptocurrency market is still a very dynamic and changeable field. Investors and market participants need to remain vigilant, constantly adapt to the new market environment, and adopt appropriate strategies to deal with potential risks.
