🚨 JUST IN:
$BTC drops under $87,000
Bitcoin just lost the $87k level today (Jan 25), and this move isn’t random. This is a classic risk-off flush, driven mainly by institutional flows.
Here’s what’s pushing BTC down:
1️⃣ ETF Outflows (The Real Pressure)
U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs are seeing heavy selling.
➡️ About $1.7B has flowed OUT since Jan 16.
These ETFs are the gateway for Wall Street money — when they sell, it creates real supply that retail can’t absorb fast enough.
2️⃣ Trade War Fears (Greenland Tariffs)
Trump’s renewed tariff threats toward Europe are spooking global markets. In macro stress moments, Bitcoin still trades like a high-beta risk asset, not a safe haven.
3️⃣ Fed Anxiety
Traders are bracing for this week’s Fed decision. Higher-for-longer rates = less appetite for volatile assets like crypto.
4️⃣ Technical Breakdown
BTC failed twice at the $96k–$98k resistance. That rejection triggered liquidations and short-term panic selling.
The takeaway:
This isn’t Bitcoin “failing.” It’s ETF-driven distribution + leverage getting flushed ahead of major macro events.
Volatility is the price of holding an asset outside the legacy system.
