  • Bitcoin traded at $75,645, down 4.98% over 24 hours.

Decrypt reported a sharp reversal in AI-related stocks on Thursday, describing the move as a historic selloff. The outlet said crypto was not insulated from the downturn, with Bitcoin surrendering gains associated with the election rally. Bitcoin was trading at $75,645 at the time of the market snapshot. Its 24-hour decline was 4.98%, while the seven-day change was negative 2.03%, indicating that weakness persisted beyond the latest session even though the daily move was substantially larger. The broader crypto market was broadly lower, with total market capitalization at $2.61 trillion. Bitcoin accounted for $1.52 trillion of that value, according to the supplied market data. The Fear & Greed index stood at 28, placing market sentiment in the Fear category. The development matters because the reversal was not confined to crypto: it coincided with a major fall in AI-linked equities and removed part of Bitcoin’s election-rally gains. With sentiment already showing fear, the immediate focus is whether Bitcoin can hold the $75,000 area or whether broader technology weakness continues to pull risk assets lower. This is a market observation, not a forecast.
