Bitcoin fell to roughly $73,700 after a hotter US inflation reading, according to Crypto.news. The report said the market reaction combined pressure from $723 million in crypto liquidations, withdrawals from Bitcoin ETFs and selling by large holders.
Crypto.news identified the inflation data as the immediate catalyst, while the fund outflows and whale activity added selling pressure. The cited $723 million liquidation figure covers crypto broadly and was not broken down by asset or trading venue in the supplied summary.
The move extended beyond a single trading session. Bitcoin was down 1.51% over 24 hours and 3.63% over seven days, placing the largest cryptocurrency in a broader downturn that Crypto.news described as broadly negative across the crypto market.
Total crypto market capitalization stood at $2.52 trillion, while the Fear and Greed index registered 29, corresponding to fear. The combination of inflation sensitivity, liquidations and institutional fund outflows may keep attention on whether Bitcoin can hold the $73,700 area and whether risk conditions improve across the wider digital-asset market.
