The last 48 hours haven’t been kind to bitcoin (BTC) and its crypto companions. By 5:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday, BTC was trading at $91.7K to $92.3K per coin, reflecting a 2.5% drop from the previous day and a 1% decline over the past week. Despite this dip, bitcoin remains up by more than 35% compared to its value 30 days ago.
At present, BTC boasts a trading volume of $106.35 billion, with a market capitalization of $1.81 trillion. Leading exchanges for trading today include Binance, Bybit, and Coinbase. The most popular trading pairs for bitcoin are USDT, USD, FDUSD, USDC, and KRW, in that order. Interestingly, bitcoin is trading at a slight premium in South Korea, priced at $91.8K compared to the global average of $91.7K.
The market downturn has triggered a wave of liquidations in crypto derivatives. A total of $581.98 million in positions were wiped out, impacting 189,525 traders. Bitcoin long positions accounted for $113 million of the total liquidations, while ether longs added another $77 million to the tally. Tuesday’s market looked undeniably red across the board.
The current dip in bitcoin reflects how even the leading cryptocurrency remains susceptible to shifts in global trading sentiment. As both institutional and retail players react to these changes, the intricate connections between spot prices, trading pairs, and derivatives markets are coming into sharper focus for investors charting their strategies in this trillion-dollar sector.
While the short-term outlook may seem grim, bitcoin’s performance over the past 30 days signals its resilience in the broader crypto economy. These swings present an opportunity for market participants to reassess their strategies while emphasizing the need for caution when leveraging positions. In this unpredictable environment, staying nimble and attuned to global trends will be essential for both traders and investors.
