2 Reasons Bitcoin Price Crashed Below $73,000 Today

Bitcoin’s price tumbled, losing more than 3.5% in the past 24 hours.

The move saw the cryptocurrency decline by over $2,000, resulting in elevated liquidations across derivatives positions, which currently amount to slightly less than $1 billion.

There are a few reasons for this, so let’s have a look at the most likely ones.

US Resumes Strikes on Iran

As CryptoPotato a raportat earlier today, the US resumed strikes on Iran. To be precise, they targeted an Iranian military site, while the US shot down a total of four Iranian drones, which posed a threat around the Strait of Hormuz, according to available coverage.

Speaking on the matter, an official told Reuters:

“These actions were measured, purely defensive, and intended to maintain the ceasefire.”

That said, there already was a retaliation on behalf of Iran, which struck a US base in Kuwait. The country’s IRGC released a statement, confirming the attack, and saying that “aggression will not go unanswered.”

Oil prices surged on the news, rising 5% and putting additional strain on the global economy, which in turn had an immediate impact on Bitcoin’s price. The latter is widely seen as a risk-on asset, meaning that geopolitical uncertainty is much more likely to negatively impact its short-term value.

$1.3B Block Sale on BlackRock

Yesterday, we a raportat that someone offloaded 29 million shares of IBIT (BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF). That position alone was worth a whopping $1.3 billion, officially making it the largest block trade of this kind and marking the largest single-day outflow from BTC ETFs.

Now that we have more context, it raises the question: did the entity have inside information about what’s to come?

Speculation aside, spot Bitcoin ETFs have grown to a position of importance and liquidating large portions surely have more than just an immediate impact on the price. They signal confidence (or the lack of) in the asset and a $1.3 billion block sale is surely to raise more than just a few eyebrows.
