The broader market is also weaker: CoinMarketCap put total crypto capitalization near $2.82T, down 3.6% in 24 hours, with BTC dominance around 59.1%; its Fear & Greed reading was 61 (Greed) (market overview). Reports attributed pressure to rising oil prices and Treasury yields alongside forced selling. The Defiant cited $83M in BTC long liquidations over 24 hours during an earlier drop below $84,000, while other reports put total crypto liquidations near $547M; these are different scopes and time windows, so the supplied $640M long-liquidation figure is not confirmed by the cited reporting (The Defiant, market report).
