Bitcoin dips below $81K as $1.09B in leveraged crypto positions liquidate amid market pressure

Bitcoin briefly fell below $81,000 before recovering to around $82,500, triggered by $1.09 billion in forced liquidations of leveraged crypto positions, mostly from traders betting on price increases. This sell-off added pressure on digital assets, compounded by $729 million net outflows from U.S. Bitcoin ETFs over two days and rising U.S. Treasury yields hitting 5.31%. Short-term holders also sold 55,600 BTC at a loss during the dip. These events highlight increased volatility and risk in crypto markets, influenced by broader financial conditions.
