$616,410,000 in Bitcoin and Crypto Liquidated As BTC Price Drops To $64,000

Traders in the cryptocurrency market are currently facing significant losses as Bitcoin experiences a sharp drop in value. The leading cryptocurrency plummeted from a daily high of $67,695 to a low of $63,962, causing a total of $616.41 million in liquidations, as reported by CoinGlass.

The majority of these liquidations affected traders who had taken long positions, totaling $524.28 million in losses. This recent price movement adds to Bitcoin’s streak of five consecutive monthly declines, making it one of the longest losing streaks in its history.

The market downturn can be attributed to broader market factors, including the repercussions of the Supreme Court’s decision against Trump’s tariffs. As Bitcoin struggles to maintain its price levels, crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe highlights the ongoing downtrend compared to gold.

Van de Poppe notes that Bitcoin failed to sustain its position above $65,000 and continues to see a decline in value. In contrast, gold is experiencing a rally, indicating an inverse correlation between the two assets. The analyst suggests that this trend may persist in the coming months, emphasizing the downward trajectory of Bitcoin relative to gold.
