🚨 BITCOIN FACES A RARE SCENARIO — ONLY THE 4TH TIME SINCE 2014 🚨
Bitcoin is down ~7% YTD, putting it on track for just its 4th annual loss in over a decade.
📉 History check: $BTC has only closed red in: • 2014
• 2018
• 2022
All three were deep bear markets — which is why traders are now questioning what phase we’re really in.
💥 What Changed Everything? “Crashtober” On Oct 10, Bitcoin crashed 10% in 24 hours, wiping out $12,000+ and triggering the largest leverage liquidation of 2025.
While exchanges claimed everything was “normal,” analysts noticed: • Heavy selling pressure
• Large players offloading
• Liquidity suddenly disappearing
One analyst compared it to a LUNA-style moment — calm words, violent price action.
🧠 Why the Market Still Feels Weak Analysts say the damage wasn’t just financial — it was psychological.
• Liquidity remains thin
• Market makers are cautious
• Altcoins fail to recover
• Capital is leaving crypto, not rotating
“October 10 broke something mentally,” one analyst said.
That’s why rallies feel fragile and selloffs happen fast.
🔄 But Not Everyone Is Bearish Some see the crash as a healthy deleveraging: • Open interest is down
• Excess leverage is flushed
• Future rallies could be more sustainable
Less leverage = less forced selling.
📊 Current Price: ~$86,844
📌 Big Question:
Is this the final reset before a stronger rally — or early signs of a deeper cycle shift?
