The most recent Bitcoin price crash
Bitcoin's value took a sharp hit today, plummeting to an intraday low of $39,494.65, which dragged its market capitalization down to $784.8 billion, alongside a significant 24-hour trading volume of $30 billion.
There has been a marginal recovery with Bitcoin trading around $40,032.
The current downturn in Bitcoin's value is primarily linked to massive outflows from Bitcoin ETFs, particularly from the Grayscale Bitcoin Trust, which saw an unprecedented $640 million exit in a single day.
