Live BTC/USD Chart
Bitcoin fell below $75,000, roughly 42% from its 2025 peak, and returned to levels last seen following the “Liberation Day” tariff fallout.
What started as a severe crash in October has turned into something more destructive: a selloff characterized by a lack of buyers, momentum, and confidence rather than panic. In contrast to the October drawdown, there hasn’t been a clear spark, cascading liquidations, or systemic shock; instead, there has only been declining demand, thin liquidity, and an unconnected token.
Risk rallies, dollar depreciation, and geopolitical strain have not affected Bitcoin. Despite the recent sharp fluctuations in gold and silver, there was no rotation in cryptocurrency. In January, Bitcoin experienced its fourth consecutive monthly decline of almost 11%.
This is the longest losing streak since 2018, during the crash that followed the 2017 boom in initial coin offerings.
