A sharp sell-off once again affected the cryptocurrency market today. With the decline accelerating throughout the day, Bitcoin ($BTC ) fell below the $92,000 level, while Ethereum ($ETH ) lost the psychological $3,000 threshold. The market decline was further deepened by mass liquidations of heavily leveraged positions. The price of Bitcoin fell 2.46% in the last 24 hours to $91,789. The weekly loss is 13.29%. BTC's market capitalization has fallen to $1.83 trillion. The Ethereum price also suffered from the sharp market decline. ETH fell 3.54% to $2,984, a weekly decline of 16.35%. Chart showing the decline in ETH price. Solana attracted attention with a 21.98% weekly loss, while Cardano's loss reached 21.39%. One of the biggest factors in the deepening market decline was the mass liquidation of leveraged positions. According to Coin glass data: 1-hour liquidations: $122.26 million 4-hour liquidations: $274.98 million 12-hour liquidations: $579.83 million 24-hour liquidations: $795.36 million The most liquidated assets were: BTC: $396.65 million ETH: $165.65 million ZEC: $44.52 million XRP: $43.50 million LEFT: $37 million The US macro environment, uncertainty surrounding the Fed's interest rate decision, and the intense selling pressure experienced in the crypto market in recent days are straining investor sentiment. Analysts note that similar price movements can rapidly deepen during periods of high leverage.

The crypto market continues to grapple with sharp volatility and a steady decline in sentiment amid ongoing losses for major assets. Bitcoin recently fell below the $100,000 mark for the second time in a week. It has dropped 12% over the past month. The Fear and Greed Index has slipped into the ‘extreme fear’ zone, reigniting concerns about a possible shift toward a sustained bearish environment. The total crypto market cap now stands at 3.25 trillion dollars, down from 3.55 trillion dollars a week earlier. Bitcoin extended its downturn early Monday, briefly falling to $93,000, its lowest level since April. Is the Four-Year Cycle Still Intact? Recent commentary from Hunter Horsely, CEO of Bitwise, points to a structural shift in how investors interpret the long-standing four-year cycle narrative. Horsely outlined a sequence of effects that may be shaping current market behavior. He noted that many investors assume the cycle will bring a downturn in 2026, leading them to sell in 2025 to avoid a perceived “down” year. This early selling creates downward pressure in 2025, which, in turn, disrupts the pattern and weakens the idea of a predictable cycle-based timing. Horsely believes the market now operates under a new structure shaped by the rise of spot Bitcoin ETFs and broader institutional involvement. He argues that the conditions that produced earlier cycle patterns no longer apply. In his view, the market may have already spent nearly six months in a quiet bear phase and could be approaching its end. Solana and Altcoins Under Pressure Solana currently trades at $135 after a weekly decline of nearly 19%. Altcoins remain highly sensitive to Bitcoin price movements. Bitcoin’s struggle to hold key levels has pushed many alternative assets into wider pullbacks. Until market conditions stabilize, altcoins may continue to show choppy and unpredictable behavior. Spot ETF flows reveal diverging trends across the market. Solana spot ETFs recorded net inflows of $46.4 million over the past week. Meanwhile, Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs continue to record outflows, which highlights shifting investor preferences during periods of broader market stress. Volatility and Liquidations Large-scale liquidations have played a significant role in recent market swings. According to CoinGlass data, there’s a $60 million cluster of $BTC liquidations at $92,818 that could trigger and accelerate the downturn. CoinGlass data also shows that over the past 16 days, three separate sessions recorded more than 1 billion dollars in liquidations. Daily liquidations above 500 million dollars now occur frequently, especially when trading volume remains thin. These conditions have amplified volatility on both the downside and the upside. Market sentiment has shifted quickly in response. CoinMarketCap’s Crypto Fear and Greed Index is now at 17, indicating extreme fear. This level ties the early 2025 bottom, even though Bitcoin has climbed 25% from its April low. Elevated leverage continues to magnify sentiment shifts across the market. $BTC $SOL
