Why Bitcoin is down 1.1% in the last hour

Analysis

Bitcoin slipped 1.1% over the past hour as traders reacted to macro-driven risk-off sentiment tied to Fed leadership news, with CryptoPotato reporting a broader BTC selloff alongside Kevin Warsh being sworn in as the next Fed Chair. Separately, Decrypt noted Trump Media moved over $200 million in Bitcoin per Arkham, a headline that can add short-term uncertainty around large-holder flows and potential selling pressure.
