On October 10, 2025, Bitcoin's price plunged from around $122,000 to $105,000 within minutes, triggering nearly $19 billion in liquidations largely due to leveraged positions and derivatives. Despite improved tools for monitoring market risks, excessive leverage and derivatives still threaten stability. The crash challenged the reliability of Bitcoin's four-year cycle for price predictions, highlighting the growing influence of economic and political factors. Investors now focus more on risk management and market structure, but the potential for similar shocks remains.
