Bitcoin Plunges to Two-Month Low as Macroeconomic Concerns and SpaceX Sales Trigger Crypto Sell-Off

  • Bitcoin fell below $26,000, reaching its lowest level since June, amid a wider crypto market decline influenced by macroeconomic factors.
  • SpaceX incurred losses on its Bitcoin holdings, wrote down their value, and sold the cryptocurrency, news which contributed to Bitcoin's price drop.
  • In addition to the SpaceX news, factors like rising interest rates, recession fears, and outlook on China's economy added to downward pressure on Bitcoin and crypto prices.
  • The significant crypto market sell-off indicates increased volatility and downward price trend, with Bitcoin recording its worst week since May.
  • Analysts point to margin calls, lack of retail enthusiasm, and investors reassessing spot Bitcoin ETF timeline as contributing to the plunge.
