Why Bitcoin is down 3.4% today

Analysis

Bitcoin fell 3.4% over the past 24 hours as selling pressure coincided with bearish market structure and ETF-flow concerns highlighted in CryptoPotato’s report on BTC sliding toward $74K. The drop also came amid fresh regulatory scrutiny in the broader Bitcoin ecosystem, with Decrypt noting Missouri’s restitution demand tied to a lawsuit involving Bitcoin ATM firm CoinFlip, which can weigh on sentiment.
