Crypto Market Volatility Intensifies as BTC Dips Below $85K
- Increased Market Volatility: Despite typically quiet holiday trading, the cryptocurrency market is experiencing hundreds of millions in daily liquidations, with total liquidations reaching approximately $600 million on Monday, indicating a fragile market structure that could further undermine investor confidence.
- Bitcoin Price Fluctuations: Bitcoin (BTC) briefly dipped below $85,000 last week before edging back toward $90,000, failing to hold that level, which highlights the market's sensitivity to price movements and uncertainty, with a projected near 24% loss in Q4, marking its weakest performance since 2018.
- Stable Institutional Demand: While the overall market remains weak, institutional demand for Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH) has remained steady, suggesting that investors are shifting back to major assets after moving out of smaller tokens, potentially laying the groundwork for future market recovery.
- Increased Liquidity Risks: With holiday trading desks winding down, liquidity is thinning, and market makers warn that future price movements may be driven more by positioning than fundamental conviction, which could lead to elevated volatility in the short term.
