Bitcoin dropped more than 6% within 24 hours to a low of $66,346, wiping out $1.35 billion in long crypto positions and pushing its market cap below $1.35 trillion. The selloff dragged the total crypto market cap under $2.5 trillion for the first time since April, driven by a mix of structural bear market correction, reduced summer trading volume, and broader market distractions like geopolitical tensions and AI developments. Analysts expect continued downward pressure through August, with some viewing recent sales by major holders as signals of a cautious market stance rather than direct causes.
