Bitcoin crashed below $90,000 to as low as $82,000 at the time of writing as volatility and uncertainty in the big tech industry pressured risk assets.
The US market sell-off on Thursday caused a big drop in investor sentiment. According to Bloomberg data, it led to a $2.7 trillion market wipe-out, causing Bitcoin to plunge to its lowest level since April 2025.
Nevertheless, it looks like traders still expect improved liquidity ahead as US fiscal pressures grow and Donald Trump is readying a tariff-focused stimulus agenda.
The market expects a whole mix of uncertainties and unsure crypto forces driving risk asset sell-off in the past 48 hours. Sentiments are down as both retail and institutional players cash out to escape negative market forces. Meanwhile, the all-new automatic trading systems are also selling, which has pushed fear even higher among legacy traders.
