Bitcoin fell by 2% in 24 hours, dropping below $68,000 for the first time in four days. The decline led to over $50 million in long liquidations, with roughly 70% of these being from bitcoin positions. This drop led to lower shares for crypto-related companies such as Circle Internet (CRCL), Coinbase (COIN), and Strategy (MSTR). Macro conditions are worsening as the 10-year Treasury yield nears a 1-year high, making risk assets like crypto less attractive. The MOVE index, which measures U.S. bond market volatility, has risen 18% over the past 24 hours.
