dropping below $90,000 for the first time in months. The downturn has intensified discussion around where the market could find support — and whether opportunities still exist for identifying the next 100x crypto despite growing uncertainty. Bitcoin is now down roughly 5–6% in the past 24 hours and around 14% over the week, trading nearly 30% below its recent all-time high above $126,000.

Market Cap





Market-wide losses continue to deepen as total crypto cap falls to around $3.12 trillion, a 4% daily decline. More than $1 billion in leveraged positions have been liquidated, adding significant pressure as forced selling accelerates. Coinglass data shows that over $718 million in long positions were wiped out, compared to about $288 million in shorts — one of the largest leverage resets in recent weeks.

, and most major altcoins are down 4–5%. There is no meaningful altcoin rally, and capital continues to exit risk assets across the board.

Analysts note that concerns over slower-than-expected U.S. interest rate cuts, rising fear levels, and a recent Bitcoin “death cross” are all contributing to the downturn.

In fact, 80 of the top 100 cryptocurrencies beat BTC’s performance over the past day, suggesting an early rotation even in a weak environment.

Some analysts believe Bitcoin could stabilize around the $85,000–$88,000 range, though downside risk remains if $90,000 is not reclaimed soon. Until broader economic signals improve, volatility is likely to persist.

Meanwhile, traders are cautiously scanning outperforming assets to identify potential early movers that could later become the next 100x crypto, though confidence remains low as macro uncertainty dominates.
