Why Bitcoin is down 2.7% today
Analysis
Bitcoin fell 2.7% over the past 24 hours as traders positioned for near-term volatility tied to “quadruple witching,” which CoinDesk noted can amplify hedging and risk-off flows in BTC-linked markets. Sentiment also leaned cautious after Cointelegraph reported prediction markets pricing a higher probability of a longer-term drawdown scenario, which can weigh on near-term positioning.
