๐ฅ Whatโs actually driving this crash?
Here are the key forces pushing Bitcoin downward:
๐ 1. Record-breaking ETF outflows
US spot Bitcoin ETFs have seen massive sell pressure, with over $3.79 billion in net outflows this month alone.
When ETFs dump, the crypto market feels it instantly.
๐ 2. Global macro chaos
Mixed US employment data + Japanโs unexpected economic stimulus = global โrisk-offโ panic.
This shift triggered heavy selling across risk assets โ including BTC.
๐ธ 3. Cascade of liquidations
In the past 24 hours alone:
๐ฅ $1.9 billion in leveraged positions were liquidated.
This forced selling accelerated the crash even further.

A rate cut could act as a major bullish catalyst for crypto going into year-end.
And despite all the panicโฆ
๐ข On November 21, Bitcoin ETFs showed a net inflow of $238.4M.
