Bitcoin CRASHES To $76K — $661M Wiped In Hours (Macro Monday)

Bitcoin just dumped to $76,711 — its lowest level in over two weeks — with $660 million in liquidations vaporized in hours as the Iran war, sticky inflation, and a fresh wave of risk-off positioning sent the entire crypto market into a tailspin. The pain is bleeding into Main Street too: Toyota is warning of motor oil shortages, grocery prices just jumped 3.2% year-over-year, and crude oil remains elevated as Putin lands in Beijing to meet Xi just days after Trump's own summit. Meanwhile, NYDIG warns the CLARITY Act could stall past the midterms if the Senate doesn't move before August, Iran is reportedly launching a Bitcoin-settled shipping insurance scheme through the Strait of Hormuz, and Trump's pivot on Chinese farmland and student visas has MAGA in open revolt. Is this a textbook "sell the news" flush after the CLARITY Act win, or the start of something much deeper? Buy the dip — or run for the hills? Learn more about your ad choices.
