Bitcoin Passes a Major Stability Stress Test
🟡After setting a new all-time high, Bitcoin faced a sharp correction, falling by roughly $4,000 and triggering more than $500 million in liquidations. Over 70% of losses came from long positions, revealing overheated market sentiment. Despite continued institutional inflows through ETFs, the move highlighted how retail demand still plays a critical role in price dynamics.
🟡The pullback served as the first real stress test for the market’s new hybrid structure, where institutional and retail flows intertwine. Analysts caution that even in an era of ETF dominance and whale activity, panic-driven cascades and short-term speculation can still shift market trends within hours.
