Bitcoin drops as $550M in forced liquidations hit crypto market
InterfaxLO·about 17 hours ago
Bitcoin dropped $83,000, wiping out October gains, as rising US interest rates and higher oil prices dampened risk appetite. Crypto liquidations neared $700 million, indicating forced selling. The move reflects broader risk-off sentiment driven by rate expectations, though the exact trigger for the rate surge remains unspecified.
