The Bitcoin price has suffered a significant crash, falling from above the psychological $70,000 this week. Crypto pundit Nobler cited why the leading crypto was crashing, while analyst Chiefy revealed what to expect next from BTC. 

Why The Bitcoin Price Is Crashing

In an X post, Nobler revealed that the USDT issuer Tether was liquidating some of its BTC holdings, which was contributing to the Bitcoin price crash. He noted that this was the first time they had sold directly from their BTC reserve wallet. The pundit added that things were not looking good for crypto.

On-chain data showed that Tether moved 204 BTC from its wallet to the Bitfinex exchange, sparking concerns of a sell-off. Tether is among a host of entities believed to have dumped BTC recently, sparking the Bitcoin price crash. The defunct crypto exchange Mt. Gox also transferred 10,422 BTC, worth almost $740 million. 

Furthermore, Bitcoin ETFs are contributing to the massive sell-off in BTC, with these funds on a 12-day streak of net outflows. They recorded a net outflow of $519 million yesterday, according to SoSoValue data. During these 12 days, these funds also recorded a net outflow of $733 million on May 27.  

Meanwhile, it is worth noting that the Bitcoin price crash began earlier this week, as Michael Saylor’s Strategy revealed in its SEC filing that it had sold 32 BTC. This was the first time that the Bitcoin treasury firm had sold BTC since 2022. This has raised concerns about what this could mean and how much more BTC the company could sell moving forward. 

The Bitcoin price has also crashed due to macro factors such as the U.S.-Iran war, with a peace deal looking unlikely anytime soon. BTC is also battling for liquidity amid upcoming IPOs, such as Elon Musk’s SpaceX, which is expected to go public this year. 

What Is Next For BTC

In an X post, crypto analyst Chiefy, who had predicted the Bitcoin price crash to $67,000, revealed what is next for BTC. He stated that a relief bounce would come next, giving market participants false hope before an even bigger leg down. The analyst added that structurally, this is one of the weakest setups that BTC has seen in this bear cycle.

The analyst’s accompanying chart showed that the Bitcoin price could still crash to as low as $60,000, reaching its February low. Crypto analyst Tony echoed a similar sentiment, predicting that BTC could still drop to $60,000, although he expects a short-term relief bounce.

At the time of writing, the Bitcoin price is trading at around $66,700, down over 5% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
