Bitcoin $BTC extended its sharp sell-off during U.S. evening trading on Thursday, sliding to around $81,000. The sudden drop triggered heavy losses across derivatives markets, with over $777 million in leveraged long positions wiped out within just one hour. Market jitters were amplified after remarks from President Trump boosted Polymarket odds that Kevin Warsh could be named the next Federal Reserve chair, a development that may have unsettled traders who were positioning for a more dovish pick such as Rick Rieder.#BTC๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
