S.-China trade war, after Donald Trump threatened an additional 100% tariff on Chinese imports,” Forster says.

“This came on the heels of China announcing new restrictions on rare earth element exports, escalating tensions between the two economies.” Moreover, “with order books thinned out, forced liquidations and panic selling had an outsized impact on price, fueling a self-reinforcing cascade of liquidations and accelerating the flash crash.” Nic Puckrin, crypto analyst and co-founder of The Coin Bureau , said that “the bloodbath we saw in markets over the weekend is a brutal reminder that, as the crypto market grows and matures, the risks are amplified.” “The arrival of spot crypto ETFs and institutional interest has lulled investors into a false sense of security, but it remains the only market that trades after ￰8￱ this environment, thin liquidity, overleverage, and the involvement of big players make for a toxic cocktail.” Ironically, Puckrin says, “now that the dust has settled, many blue-chip tokens have seen a strong rebound – including Ethereum, which is looking particularly strong back above $4,000.

As such, many spot investors find themselves in a similar position to where they were before the flash ￰9￱ is certainly an argument against excessive leverage in a market with fluctuating liquidity in such an uncertain geopolitical climate.” “The good news is that this has cleaned out the excessive leverage and reset the risk in the market, for now. However, Bitcoin now faces another uphill battle to break past key resistance levels that will allow it to reach a meaningful new all-time high this year,” he ￰10￱ & Events to Watch Next At the time of writing on Monday morning, BTC trades at $115,097.
