Bitcoin Slips Below $63,000 Amid Volatile Trading Session
Bitcoin's price dipped below $63,000 during a volatile trading session, with the cryptocurrency eventually recovering slightly above that level. This downturn was accompanied by significant liquidations, totaling $122 million in long bets.
According to data, this brought the total crypto liquidations to $227 million, reflecting increased market uncertainty due to geopolitical tensions around the Strait of Hormuz and hawkish Federal Reserve signals.
The broader cryptocurrency market remains under pressure as macroeconomic and geopolitical risks persist. The absence of near-term rate cuts is also limiting potential catalysts for Bitcoin's recovery.
