🔻 What happened: drop to the level of US$ 86,000 and immediate effects
According to public data, Bitcoin has fallen in the last 24 hours between a 5 % and 6 %, dropping from around US$ 91,000–92,000 to below US$ 86,000.
This drop dragged down the crypto market in general: other major coins also recorded losses, and many stocks linked to crypto/technology are retreating.
The decline has reduced the total market capitalization by tens (or even hundreds) of billions of dollars: some reports mention global losses of up to ~US$ 140 billion.
There are signs of liquidations — many leveraged positions (futures, derivatives/credit) have been forced to close, which intensifies the drop.
In summary: it is a sharp correction that has shaken both short-term traders and more conservative investors, and has impacted the entire crypto market.
📉 Why did it fall? — Factors behind the crash
Recent analyses highlight several combined causes:
🌍 Macroeconomic stress and global 'risk sentiment': there is concern over monetary policy decisions, interest rates, global liquidity — which affects risk assets like crypto.
🔄 Exit of flows towards more conservative/traditional investments: with uncertainty in global markets, some investors are reducing exposure in volatile assets.
🔻 Excess leverage and domino effect of liquidations: many participants had leveraged positions. When the price started to fall, there were massive liquidations — which amplified the drop.
📉 Increasing correlation of crypto with traditional markets: crypto is no longer seen as an isolated asset, but as part of the global risk universe — hence, macro turbulence has a strong impact.
🕰️ Technical and psychological sentiment: after having risen sharply, many traders took profits, and the current drop is also fed by fear, which can generate panic and more selling.
In this context, the drop does not seem to be caused by an exclusive internal problem of Bitcoin — but by a set of macro factors + global risk market + liquidity dynamics + market psychology.

Some analysts warn that this correction may be harder to reverse than others, because there is now more institutional exposure, less liquidity, and crypto is more integrated into the global financial system.
On the other hand, if the macro improves (rates, inflation, liquidity), it could regain interest quickly: the structure, technology, and long-term fundamentals remain attractive to many.
🎯 Conclusion — What to watch in the coming days
Be attentive to macroeconomic decisions: interest rates, central bank policies, global liquidity.
Watch the flows to/from ETFs and large institutional custodians: if there is a re-entry of capital, it could be an incentive.
Monitor key technical support levels (e.g., US$ 80,000–82,000) — if they break, it could increase the drop; if they hold, it could stabilize.
Keep in mind the volatility: these types of sharp drops often come with strong fluctuations — not advisable for risk-averse investors.
