Bitcoin Dips Below $84K as Liquidations Hit $550M

Crypto markets face sharp selloff driven by oil rally and leveraged long unwind; Robinhood adds $25M BTC to balance sheet

Bitcoin & Market Liquidations

Bearish
Bitcoin dropped 2.3% in two hours, falling below $84K amid suspicion over leveraged short positions appearing on Hyperliquid, according to Cointelegraph. Crypto liquidations reached $550M as the oil rally impacted digital asset markets, with over $400 million in leveraged longs liquidated in roughly one hour overnight, according to multiple sources. The selloff occurred without a clear catalyst, though macro and geopolitical headwinds continued to limit upside as Treasury yields and the dollar rose following Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and threats to US Gulf production infrastructure. Bitcoin's recovery stalled just short of rescuing its last underwater cohort, while BingX strategy chief Kevin Lee noted that wealthy investors are taking a longer-term approach to Bitcoin, though family-office crypto exposure remains limited.
