Bitcoin drops to $88,000 as liquidations surge and crypto market loses $80 billion
Bitcoin slipped to a five day low of $88,000 after failing to sustain its brief move above $90,000, triggering sharp risk-off sentiment across crypto markets. Over $500 million in positions were liquidated within a day as major altcoins including Ethereum, XRP, Solana, DOGE and ADA recorded sizable declines. Market capitalization dropped by nearly $80 billion as traders reacted to renewed volatility, fading momentum and increasing sell pressure following multiple unsuccessful attempts by Bitcoin to reclaim higher resistance zones.
