Why Bitcoin is down 1.7% today
Analysis
Bitcoin fell 1.7% over the past 24 hours as traders weighed signs of potential selling pressure, with CryptoPotato reporting a spike in BTC inflows to deposit wallets back to bear-market-like levels that raised “exhaustion” concerns. While Cointelegraph noted Binance BTC inflows dropping to a 2023 low (a potentially supportive signal), broader risk sentiment was mixed after CoinDesk highlighted exploit-related worries hitting altcoins, which can spill over into overall crypto positioning.
