Bitcoin broke below $75,000 at the time of writing, currently trading at $74,937, down 2.5% on the day. The daily candle is printing its lowest close of the current correction with volume at 7.86K — not extreme but enough to confirm the move is real rather than a thin-market fake-out.

Bitcoin crossed $100,000 for the first time in late 2024, hit a record above $126,000 by October 2025, and has spent the months since losing nearly half of that gain - leaving the market to debate whether the worst is already over or still ahead.
