Bitcoin dropped 3.31% to $74,666 on May 22, 2026, driven by Middle East geopolitical tensions, massive ETF withdrawals, and a hawkish Fed. Record liquidations of $577.9 million indicate panic selling, with Bitcoin losing 15% since January amid a challenging macroeconomic environment including high inflation and recession fears. Institutional demand weakened as investors favored safe-haven assets like gold and the dollar. Analysts warn Bitcoin may stagnate or decline further without a bullish catalyst, making its near-term outlook uncertain.
